The drama has elements of thriller and comedy. Boris is an ordinary man. One evening someone shoots at him through a window. While Boris has no enemies or conflict with anyone, it seems that the shooting was a mere coincidence, so the police quickly suspend the investigation. But Boris cannot accept this ending and starts to investigate on his own.
"This is a story of a man who sees the illusion of the world he has lived in shatter. The irony and scale of this collapse bring to mind the present moment and its blurring of lines between what is real and what is fake, its growing distrust and the rapid erosion of what used to be self-evident", says director Darko Sinko.
Radoš Bolčina, Mirel Knez, Dejan Spasić play the main roles.
