The documentary is set in Belgrade, where there were plans in 1961 to build a grand museum as a tribute to Socialist Yugoslavia. Meant to "safeguard the truth" about the Yugoslav people, the plan never got beyond the construction of the basement. The derelict building now tells a very different story from the one envisioned by its initiators 60 years ago. In the damp, pitch-dark space live the outcasts of a society reshaped by capitalism. In detail, “Museum of the Revolution” follows a girl who earns cash by cleaning car windows with her mother. Meanwhile, the child develops a close friendship with an old woman who also lives in the basement. Against the background of a transforming city, the three women find refuge in each other.

Srđan Keča both directed and shot this film, which he also edited along with Hrvoslav Brkušić. Hrvoje Nikšić composed the film’s score.
