The story

A godforsaken mountain village is the only home that a young football player, a miser peasant and an obese girl have. This isolated part of the country finds itself in the middle of the referendum regarding Croatia's decision of joining the EU. Our characters couldn't care less - they are absorbed in their problems. The young football player who accidentally killed his mother doesn't want to join a rich foreign football team and is willing to risk his father's love because of it. The lonely obese girl is so desperate for a friend and for a lover that she will end up seeking both in the pig-sty. The miser peasant will find out that the real misery is in loneliness.
