Storyline
| Plot Summary |
"The world was enveloped in the Cold War. The 'Iron Curtain' split not only Europe, but the whole world, into two politically and militarily antagonistic blocs. Nuclear weapons are present in both blocs. Fear of nuclear war leads to a panicked attempt by many countries to provide such weapons, while science works to find a cure for nuclear radiation caused by the use of nuclear weapons." This is the storyline set at Vinca Institute near Belgrade, which symbolically represents the start of a survival race between two scientists, two worlds, and two ideologies. The script for this international project was written by by Vuk Rsumovic and Dragan Bjelogrlic, based on the novel "The Vinca Case" by Professor Goran Milasinovic. |
