A darkly comedic portrait of a middle-aged man's daily humiliation amid domestic chaos and professional stagnation, where frustration and crowding breed both absurdist humor and genuine despair.

At 56 years of age Mita Pantic is still only a junior clerk in his company. Another typical workday for him is starting at 6 a.m. as frustration awaits at every turn from the moment he gets up. Trying to get ready to go to work, he can barely get a turn to use the bathroom in the crowded apartment. Other members of the household are not without their frustrations either, meaning that nagging and shouting are a staple of their home life at any time of day.
