A tough 13-year-old girl struggles to keep her emotions under control, whether concerning her missing dog or the boy she likes.

In the copper mine of the industrial town Bor in Eastern Serbia, miners have been melting copper in the same manner for more than a century.

After the disruption of a minute of silence in honor of a fallen comrade in Ukraine, the High choir—made up of Lenin statues across the world—kicks out its northernmost member: a Lenin bust situated in an abandoned Soviet mining settlement in Svalbard. Devastated by this action, the lonely bust is in for yet another upset when a dog wanders into town.

In Eastern Serbia, in a town with a dual identity divided between magic and industry, a family whose destiny is intrinsically linked with both does their best to ensure the survival of their traditions and their future generations. Lifelong miner Dragan Markovic is the last in a line of dragon hunters, while his sister Desa is the widow of the union leader who is trying to continue his legacy by ensuring the rights of fellow mine-worker families.
