A boy and a girl meet in the middle of a carnival direnda and rejoice together until the crowd separates them. Their reunion is not possible, as they were wearing masks.

Oton, a young boy, is growing up while his hometown Ljubljana changes, from 1934, when King Alexander of Yugoslavia is killed in France, through first the Italian and then the German occupations of the city, until the arrival of Communism.

Špela graduated in Art History and has never had a steady job. Unlike her two best friends, who have moved out of Slovenia years ago with no plans to return, she is determined to stay in Ljubljana. When even her longtime boyfriend gets a job abroad she moves back in with her parents and her grandma. But Špela wants to grow up and cut the cord instead of delaying her already well overdue adulthood any longer.

A meeting and a walk of two young people in Ljubljana's parks, Tivoli and Rožnik. In the inner dialogue of the young man, Ljubljana and his beloved face each other.
