Somewhere in the Balkans, 1995. A team of aid workers must solve an apparently simple problem in an almost completely pacified territory that has been devastated by a cruel war, but some of the local inhabitants, the retreating combatants, the UN forces, many cows and an absurd bureaucracy will not cease to put obstacles in their way.

This film offers a darkly comedic and exasperating journey through a post-conflict landscape. It's a poignant exploration of humanitarian efforts clashing with absurd bureaucracy and the lingering echoes of war, all while maintaining a cynical, yet resilient, spirit.
