Synopsis

After burning their car, four young revolutionaries--the female Yugoslavia and her lovers, Dragi¿a, Kruno, and Marko--attempt to proselytize an indifferent populace. Unenthusiastic peasants rape Yugoslavia and beat her companions. Undaunted, the young people continue to agitate. The men are arrested and given haircuts by the police. Upon release the four go to work in a factory, where Yugoslavia continues a solitary protest, taunting the males with charges of political impotence. Tiring of her exhortations, Dragi¿a, Kruno, and Marko take Yugoslavia to an abandoned field, shoot her, and ignite the corpse with a Molotov cocktail.
