Belgrade is a city divided by protests and social tensions. Lena fights for a better world, joining protests and occupying buildings. Stefan, who lives in the same neighbourhood, struggles between his personal dreams and the forces drawing him away from the protests. When they meet, they discover they share a sense of unease and a desire for change, though neither fully understands these feelings.
