They are a young and successful gay couple, and they would be a happy couple anywhere else except – Serbia. Radmilo and Mirko try to live as discreetly as possible but still, with every day that passes they are abused by the homophobic majority. Besides, Mirko is a gay rights activist, and his dream is to organize the first successful pride event in Belgrade. Nationalist and neo-Nazi organizations make plans for a massacre if the gay pride parade gets the go-ahead, while the police refuse to provide protection for the participants. Faced with violent opponents and a police force that is refusing to guarantee their safety, Radmillo and Mirko turn to an unlikely hero for help – a homophobic, middle-aged Serbian gangster. But how far is their new ally willing go, to protect gay rights and freedom of speech?
