The story of a young writer who tries to save his personal identity while facing the corrupted environment and temptations of a love affair.

Croatia Records, as the publishing house that published the largest number of new wave releases, is celebrating 40 years of new wave this year. The anniversary is accompanied by many interesting releases and reissues, and the focus is on four vinyls, pearls of the new wave: the first albums of Električni orgazam and Haustor, the only album of Šarlo akrobata and the "Paket aranžman" compilation, which was responsible for the flourishing of the new wave in the former Yugoslavia. In cooperation with CMC television, a documentary film was filmed with a large number of relevant interlocutors, about one of the most brilliant musical periods in the history of the region.

In chronological order, the film follows the career of Momčilo Bajagić – Bajaga, one of the most prominent rock musicians from former Yugoslavia, together with his band ‘Instructors,’ who have been accompanying him for 25 years now.

"Balkan Rock Legends", a group based in Amsterdam, has been around for 4 years. They play rock'n'roll from a country that no longer exist. The band's repertoire includes songs from over 50 groups and artists who marked YU-rock. They don't play it "in their own way", but as close as possible to the original at concerts that last at least 3 hours. Their status as a "cover band" is very relative, considering that many members and guests perform their own original songs.
