The satirical tale of two enemy soldiers, Ciki and Nino, who find themselves stranded in No Man's Land during the 1993 Bosnian Conflict... As Ciki and Nino try to figure a way out of their bizarre predicament, a UN sergeant goes to help them, despite being ordered not to intervene, and the world's press follows, turning the incident into an international news story. In a tense standoff between the many sides involved in the conflict, Nino and Ciki desperately try to negotiate for their lives amidst the insanity of war.
