Saša Mihelčić is a journalist and a failed writer in his early thirties. He scrapes a living by writing a newspaper column on gastronomy, inherited from his father, a journalism legend. His listless existence is changed when he meets Ines, a former volleyball player who works as a masseuse in his gym. They begin a romantic relationship, and - wanting to show himself as a man of character for once - he writes a scathing review of a restaurant owned by Braco, a politically influential investor. This lands Saša in serious trouble, forcing him to face and overcome the weaker points of his character...[2] [1]
