At 56 years of age Mita Pantić (Nikola Simić) is still only a junior clerk in his company. Another typical workday for him is starting at 6 a.m. as frustration awaits at every turn from the moment he gets up. Trying to get ready to go to work, he can barely get a turn to use the bathroom in the crowded apartment. Other members of the household are not without their frustrations either, meaning that nagging and shouting are a staple of their home life at any time of day.

A frustrated and unemployed architect experiences flashbacks of his youth and 1968 protests while the life passes by. Unable to adapt and to accept the reality, he’s constantly getting into conflicts with the people around him.

The director of the company gives up his New Year's prize trip to the Balearic Islands to a deserving clerk, Milorad Petrović. The trip is for two people, but Milorad is separating from his wife, has no friends, and has never taken a vacation, which leads to his problems. He also fails to notice a female colleague who likes him as a woman. The story gains a special charm as it unfolds in the atmosphere of the New Year's festivities.
