Five childhood friends in their late twenties, now scattered across former Yugoslavia, try to maintain their friendship despite the distance. They confront their patriarchal heritage, ignoring the aftermath of war and the impoverished economy. One year, their carefree escapist youth abruptly comes to an end. After the Winter premiered in the East of the West program at the prestigious Karlovy Vary IFF.
