Marjan Bačko

An ex-partisan and current political activist sets out to Styria region in Slovenia to buy out the wheat from peasants and convince them to form the farming collective. His ostensible success (based on blackmailing rather than convincing), as well as his love defeat, make him disturbed and he kills an innocent man while performing a social mission.

Like the eponymous card game, the film consists of three parts, three different stories that are interwoven with each other in the individual sequences.
