Life drifts by for an affluent gay corporate lawyer Marius, his time spent hosting dinner parties, enjoying art, and chasing young lovers. One day, Marius’ estranged father dies. Mourning turns to love as the lawyer finds an unexpected connection with a sex-cam worker Ali – a bisexual Syrian refugee stuck in Belgrade.
