Plot: A naive boy tells his version of why daddy couldn't stay with his family in post-WWII Yugoslavia. In reality, the child's father has gone to prison for romancing the lover of a high-ranking party member. But the boy thinks papa's away working. The difficulties and tumult experienced by this fatherless family struggling to survive on their own is a parable for and mirror of the tensions between the Soviet Union and the emerging Yugoslavian government, struggling for independence.
