Nada quits her job after the police ignore her report of being raped at the company by Dorde, partly because of his connections to secret police. Her boss Milanka also fails to react, because Đorđe blackmails her with dangerous secrets from her past. Nada reconnects with Boris, her former boyfriend and colleague from her NGO days, and decides to take revenge. The problem is that in Rattlesnakes everyone is connected. Nađa’s father, an old friend, even a presidential candidate that Boris is working for, are all strings in the same web of lies. Every decision anyone makes carries a direct and serious consequence to the lives of everyone else. Personal, corporate and state interests are confronted by love, friendship and moral values. The future of the whole society depends on several individual decisions. In the middle of that stands Nađa, aware of all the lies and ready to bring the truth to light.
