A young girl attempts to kill a UN peacekeeper after the war in Croatia, leading to an investigation into the circumstances of their first meeting.

A former soldier in a peace-keeping mission. A woman who survived the violence of the war. Somalia, former Yugoslavia. Two different wars, two different stories, crossed by a single thin line: following it, we meet the linkages between violence against women and the rituals of the patriarchal military communities. Up to discern the cultural and historical roots of male violence against women.

Their son had disappeared on the front two years ago. When he finally calls them at home, they want to forget the suffering of the past. It is an allegory about the human need for past, present, and future.
