One night, Želimir Zilnik takes in ten homeless men from the streets of Novi Sad, filming their stay at his home and his attempts to find them help. Met with apathy from institutions and citizens alike, the film critiques false humanism, social demagogy, and the filmmaker’s own privileged position.
