In 1950s Yugoslavia, six-year-old Malik thinks his father is away on business. In fact, it's an open secret that Malik's dad has been sent away to the mines for fooling around with the voluptuous object of desire of a communist party official. As seen through Malik's eyes, this film magnifies the emotions of his new experiences, punctuated by trips to visit his Papa.
