In 1991, at the beginning of the war in Croatia, Vjera Kralj refuses to leave the ruins of her home on the Osijek frontline. Her husband flees the town while their son goes to the battlefield. Working as an interpreter to earn money for a bulletproof vest that could save her son’s life, Vjera meets a number of unusual people and through their destinies we learn about the Pannonian Plain over the course of two wars. This is a film about violence and victims. It is also about a woman who needs the war to learn who she is and what she needs, a woman who loses her husband only after he comes back to her, a woman who leaves Osijek only after the war is over, a woman who is on a path of self-discovery
