Vedran, a neurotic journalist and aspiring writer wakes up to yet another crappy day: his debut novel has been savaged by an influencer. A smalltime dealer has set up shop right at the entrance of his dilapidated housing block, infesting his street with the scum of the city. Vedran’s obnoxious roomie, Dino, urges him to screw away his sorrows – just like he himself so loudly does every night in the next room. But Vedran is not that kind of guy; he can’t even connect with the girl he fancies at work, the naive and opinionated Anja. When he tries to express his hurt over the damning review his book received, the influencer merely laughs in his face. It is at this point that Vedran stumbles upon a handgun: the dealer from downstairs dropped it during a police raid. Vedran hides the weapon and begins to fantasize about all those he’d love to slay in cold blood. When one day the dealer confronts him about the missing pistol, something snaps. Vedran whips the gun out and fires it. He leaves four bullets in the creep. In an instant, the lame loser is transformed into a bona fide superhero. The whole town is acclaiming the avenger who, unlike the completely impotent police, will finally clean up their streets. Yet for obvious reasons Vedran cannot reveal his true identity. When copycats and fakers trying to claim his fame start coming out of the woodwork, the young man is spurred to prove that he is the real deal by continuing his crusade. Both deadly enemies and unlikely allies materialize. A hard-boiled cop, Zlatko, is trying to track Vedran down, yet his motives soon appear dubious: maybe he is sick of the state of the city too, and merely wishes to suggest a few more targets. Weary and longing to get out of the game that never lets you go, the aging ganglord, Mirza, believes he has a new rival, a young gun aiming for his throne. And the lonely lady from next door, Diana, makes it clear that she has seen what Vedran did – although she promises to keep it a secret if he is especially nice to her. Before long, the role of the secret avenger becomes more than Vedran can handle, but by this time he is in far too deep...
