Dusan, a young deputy prosecutor for war crimes, gets the task to investigate a paramilitary formation, The First pioneer’s unit, that was operating on the battlefields in Croatia, Bosnia and Kosovo, where they disappeared without a trace.
Dusan is determined to bring the case to the end and to show his father, a famous retired professor at the law faculty, but to his boss too, War crimes prosecutor, that he is capable for this job.
This becomes for Dusan much more than a simple case - it becomes a personal confrontation.
We do not expect much of the investigation and by Dusan's associates it is condemned to failure, until he finds the unit’s only surviving soldier, Micun, who tried to live peacefully and quietly. Dusan and Micun’s encounter changes their lives and directly affects their families.
