Exactly thirty years after the fall of the Berlin Wall on 9 November 1989 and after the fall of Communism in Bulgaria on 10 November 1989, three police units patrol around Sofia. At first, it seems to be a night like any other. But the situations the policemen go through and the events they must face gradually paint a picture of Bulgaria today. Inspired by true events, the film is the second feature in the planned trilogy that opened with Directions.
