A factory worker Pantic comes to Belgrade and befriends a waiter who invites him to the pub where he works. Having failed to find an overnight lodge, Pantic goes to the pub in order to spend the night there. As the night goes, a bunch of local hoodlums sitting nearby gradually provoke and harass Pantic, otherwise a gentle and introvert man. The waiter defends him at first, but starts to pick on him later on, which makes Pantic to get mad and pull out a knife.
