Four close friends—Lovro, Nenad, Stevan, and Ivan—fought the Ustashas and Nazis as partisans during World War II. Sixteen years later, now celebrated filmmakers in Communist Yugoslavia, their homosexuality draws dangerous scrutiny. When party loyalist Emir is tasked with sabotaging their careers, the artists’ pursuit of creative freedom turns into a struggle for survival, and Emir’s own beliefs are challenged.
