Synopsis

On August 11, 1999, while the world celebrated, most of Serbia’s population barricaded
themselves in their homes and nuclear bunkers, in fear of the lunar shadow.
Using this event as a metaphor for nation’s unclean conscience about the consequences of its
political choices, in this essay documentary director confronts her country’s wartime and
criminal past, and the evil that is still on the loose today.
