Three idealists try to outrun capitalism in 1980s Yugoslavia. Spoiler: capitalism wins.
Two young men and a girl, going through all the dilemmas of their generation, live together and try to build different world, to find their place in society. The manner of their life, understanding of truth and justice, love and passion, gets each of them in conflict with environment, with people who want to change their relationship and fit them into accepted moral norms. They are giving in slowly, and their whole world changes. Some of them will fit the dull everyday's life, and some will find strength to resist.
Acting
Skender's athlete carries the film's physical desperation.

Darko Bajić
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Made during Yugoslavia's dying years, the film's collapse of young idealism eerily predicted the nation's own.
The track sequences were shot at actual Partizan Stadium; Skender later became a prominent theater director, never matching this raw screen presence.
