With his short collage documentary the director give an affirmative answer to the question, whether it is still necessary to talk about the war. The film is shot from the front seat of a car. A soldier from Serbia, a volunteer from Croatia and a member of Bosnian Army talk about their experiences and memories. All three were actively involved in the war for independence in ex-Yugoslavian republics. With minimal support Dević managed to show three stories of three sides with the same believe in absurdity of war.

»I was shocked by statement of one of them. He said that he was someone special in his hometown before the war, but today he feels like shit, and the only part of society that can understand him are enemy soldiers, who are in the same shit.« (Goran Dević)
