A young gendarme from Bucharest keeping his sexuality a secret must intervene at a homophobic protest which takes place at a movie theater. A film that emerged from the necessity to give voice to vulnerable individuals and put under scrutiny the way in which society tends to vilify the idea of being different, drawing its inspiration from a real-life protest that took place in Bucharest in 2013.
