Entrelaza tres historias que ocurren en una ciudad metalúrgica del sudeste de Serbia: la de un hipnotizador, la de un trabajador acusado de homicidio, y la de un ingeniero maduro que debe dirigir el montaje de unas máquinas y vive una breve historia de amor con la joven peluquera Rajka.
This conventional post-nuclear holocaust drama from Yugoslav director Veljko Bulajic seems to be at cross purposes. On the one hand, its anti-war sentiments are clear, as well as its realistic scenarios of destruction, and on the other hand, the director and scripter Cesar Zavatini have turned the story into a satire. At the center of focus is a young couple who were getting married when the atomic bombs changed the face of the planet, and through the couple's own dilemma the greater picture is glimpsed. Assisting Eva Krizevska, Anton Vrdoljak, Zlatko Madunic, and other actors is President Marshal Tito's army.
