The short documentary focuses on life along the Yugoslav-Italian border in the 1960s. In a humorous way, it depicts daily life and neighborly relations in the border region, where trade between the two countries flows almost uninterrupted. The film dispels myths about the impermeable border between the "Eastern and Western blocs" and prophetically predicts the eventual end of the tightly controlled border.
“I filmed things that I knew were far from photogenic but could carry a valuable message. Through my films, I told stories about things we can improve. This is the role of documentary filmmaking.” - Mako Sajko
