On the far side of middle age, business owner Vlada and his wife Milena live an upper-middle-class lifestyle outside of Belgrade. Without thinking about it as they go about their day-to-day business, they are dedicated to protecting that comfortable life they've earned for themselves and their teenage and young-adult offspring: Natasha, Milos, and Katarina. There is friction between Vlada and Natasha because of her anti-Serbian stance on the atrocities the government exacted during the Balkan War; she has even written an award-winning essay on the subject. Many Balkans, including Serbians, are calling for those who committed war crimes to be prosecuted. The reason for Vlada's pro-Serbian stance is that he was a soldier fighting for the Serbs during the war; he and Milena still have among their social circle some of his fellow ex-soldiers and their current spouses. Milena, who has never had a mammogram, learns during a doctor visit that she has a lump in her left breast. As she contemplates her health and waits to get the lump checked out, she decides not to tell her family. As she is giving the house a major cleaning, she finds conclusive evidence that Vlada committed war crimes as a solder. These two discoveries quietly rock Milena's staid world. What she decides to do is affected by her eventual diagnosis and her and Vlada's friendships within their specific social circle.
