MovieDocumentaryHistory
The tavern "Jablan" existed in the 1980s and was located in a small village, Jugovo Polje, in Croatia, SFRY. "Jablan" was a symbol of "brotherhood and equality" for its owners, guests, musicians, and waiters. It was a place where people of different generations and education gathered - from workers and peasants to doctors, even music and sports stars of the '80s, it was a place where nationality and religious affiliation played no role. Nevertheless, the first shooting between Serbs and Croats took place in "Jablan", which heralded the war in Croatia and ended "Jablan's carefree days". The film protagonists reconstruct the events, from the day the tavern was created, to its destruction, witnessing how a place of love and joy became an object of hatred and destruction within a few months.

Neda relocates from Croatia to New York City seeking financial and emotional stability. While navigating her new life in the metropolis, she maintains a complicated, distant relationship with her father, Jadranko, back home through late-night online chats. During these nocturnal browsing sessions, Neda stumbles upon a forgotten digital archive belonging to a 1990s cyberfeminist collective known as the Electronic Witches. The group—originally formed by activists during the Yugoslav Wars to teach women and queer individuals how to use early electronic bulletin boards (BBS networks) to bypass state censorship—quickly becomes an obsession for her. As Neda digs deeper into the virtual archive, her digital investigation spills into the physical world. Her quest to uncover the legacy of these wartime digital pioneers transforms into a personal journey of self-discovery, exploring themes of isolation, digital intimacy, and queer resilience without falling into tragic tropes.
