Overview

Zagreb, 1941. A young Tomica Škrinjar grows up on the streets of the Trešnjevka neighborhood, blissfully unaware of the brewing war on the far off frontlines. Whilst Tomica is busy developing his first crushes and playing in the sandlofts, his parents decide to hide away an Italian fascist deserter, his aunt Nadica starts a whirlwind romance with a German soldier and the military conflicts between the communist partisans and the Croatian pro-nazi militia reach their doorstep.
