A group of relatively young (30-35 years), college-educated, smart, urban people, whose youth was destroyed in the events during the breakup of Yugoslavia, in a late search for their identity.
They meet in Jugoslavia. Katharina, daughter of a Jugoslavian immigrant worker, has grown up in the Federal Republic of Germany. She is a confident, energetic career woman who has managed to work her way up to become a succesful television journalist. She goes to visit her parent's country, to do a story about the children of immigrant workers in their home country. Although she says she doesn´t need a "home" any more, even she feels strange in her own country. Peter is a rather "untypical" sort of man: a dreamer, a thinker. He has given up his steady job as a composer for advertising films and is divorced. He goes to Jugoslavia to find something out about the past. He travels to the places where his father was stationed during the Second World War.
A young man from the banks of the Ibar River goes to the revolutionary war. It turns out to be one of the key moments that will later leave marks on his life. The war conflict runs along with his intimate, internal conflicts of his own. He feels the need to think as a human being despite the horrors surrounding him. Such is the deeply embedded need of this man - the need for love, understanding and justice.
Pavle Pavlovic, a steel worker, openly talks about the issues in the steel factory in a television show. He receives an apartment from the board, takes his statement back, but looses the trust of his colleagues. He starts all over again: in another company he gains new friends, however while facing the criminals who illegally transport workers abroad, he loses his life.
Perpetual wandering of a man who searches for his own identity, never reaching the final destination.
Immediately after the war, OZNA insert an outstanding intelligence agent to catch the General Draza Mihajlovic.
A man and his conscience are shown on their way to paradise as the only illusion that saves him the present civilization's hell. However, it is the same people and same events that await him there.
