Serbia in the late 1990s. Prison cell. Vjeran, a Belgrade transvestite arrested for prostitution. Nikola, a political prisoner and organizer of demonstrations against the regime of Slobodan Milosevic.

The action takes place in the village where the master Milun tries to use the servant Sreja and his knowledge “to play nicely on the harps” which is well paid and to make a contract with him to Sreja's detriment, all with the help of village fraudsters, his faithful tricksters.

The story begins at the darkest moment in 1916 when the country is occupied, the army on Corfu. The plot follows the historical events until 1921 and the death of King Peter, ie the Great War, the liberation of the country, the creation of the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes, and the Kingdom of Yugoslavia.
