Lovro and his friends Nenad, Stevan, and Ivan rebelled against the Nazi regime and joined the Yugoslav Partisans. Sixteen years later, they are renowned artists who feel entitled to criticize the society for which they fought. Although they are veterans worthy of the Yugoslav Partisans, the party does not like the films they create, and the party hires Agent Emir to sabotage their work when their sexuality becomes suspicious.[5]
