Emma, a high school student, is up to her ears in failures and with domestic problems. When Emma fails the year and gets a new schoolmate Taja, she becomes lively and strats playing truant. Parents jointly set her one condition. She should take up an activity that will fill up her time. While wondering about an activity like that, she beholds a poster that invites to an audition for school television. She decides to give it a try. The creation of programmes, socializing with peers who have goals, new sympathies emerge simultaneously with the world of competitiveness and jealousy. Will she get around in the world she didn't know before?

A historical saga, based on personal stories and the history of Brda (a region near the border in the west of Slovenia), depicts a bloody history of Europe, full of wars, nationalisms and at the same time cohabitation, which is always personal and common to everyone.

A reflection of contemporary society through modified moving images. A satiric critique of the current social and political changes that are happening in Slovenia, in Europe and in the World aesthetically explored through (de)formation of landscapes and cityscapes. "Phony Sights" considers social and political issues and even science when searching for an answer to the questions: "Where are we?" and "Where are we going?"

Guti (35, Slovenian) and Sig (50, Icelander) wake up naked and handcuffed to one another on a riverbank near Ljubljana. Sig suffers from memory loss, while Guti recalls a fight with skinheads Sid drunkenly participated in and Guti tried peacefully to intervene in. Sig has no passport or any clue about his identity—the skinheads have taken everything he owned. Guti is trying to build a new home for himself on a river raft after losing his house to the bank and his life to his ex-wife. He introduces Sig to his friends—suburban misfits, who remind Sig of a legend of the hidden people.
