Zeko, a grief-stricken boy, confesses his secrets to a carp; Azra and Braco, a married couple hiding secrets from each other, unwittingly end up in the same hospital; special snakes save soldier Kosta from a brutal death... Six stories set in Sarajevo in the 1970s and 1980s that share the fantasy and magical realism characteristic of Emir Kusturica's work. His characters fight, protect each other, or love each other, but the sad reality that surrounds them is transformed, thanks to the writer's genius, into an expressive fable.
