A dark autumn night. A provincial train has stopped in the middle of nowhere due to a technical failure. On board, everyone is as though competing in shouting for no good reason, apart from one silent man in his thirties, who is totally oblivious to the cacophony around him. When a special news bulletin appears on the screens in the carriage, and the unstable equilibrium between the passengers finally collapses, it is time for everyone to play their separate roles.

Three teenagers live in a brutal Roma ghetto in Sofia, Bulgaria. One of them is in love with literature but to make ends meet he needs to become a boxer.
