Andrei Blaier's film catches the last days of The Stone Cross a low class brothels area that became some kind of an institution in the landscape of Bucharest before the Communist period, doomed to destruction under the new rules of proletarian morals that the Communists were trying to impose.

In a world due to fall under tyranny for the coming decades prostitution becomes a metaphor of the old more free way of life.
