Belgrade is a city split in two. In the occupied buildings and crowded streets, Lena fights for a world she believes can be changed. From the same neighbourhood, Stefan is torn between the life he wants and the forces pulling him to the other side of the protests. When they meet, they recognise a shared restlessness neither can quite name.
