Predstava koja ide napred nazad između akcije i naracije, prati istoriju Jugoslavije osamdesetih, kroz pogled dvoje komšija, dece rođene 1983. godine. Tito je umro nekoliko godina ranije. Zemlja, koju sad vode mlađe generacije koje nisu učestvovale u prvim bitkama, se menja.
Deda jednog od dva deteta, stari komunista, pokušava, kroz pripovedanje, da ih sačuva u svetu za koji oseća da mu preti kraj.
Deca su usvojila predstavljeni model pravde. Obećavaju jedan drugom da će ostati verna ovim vrednostima, da će rasti zajedno i postati pioniri i da će jednog dana izgraditi još lepšu zemlju nego što je sad.
Na prelazu u devedesete, naime, ideal se raspada. Oni su prva generacija koja neće postati pioniri. Sledeće godine, Slovenija proglašava svoju nezavisnost, Hrvatska je sledeća, nastaje rat prvo između susednih republika, i na kraju, u okviru njih. Ovo je kraj SFRJ.
Postepeno, uprkos zakletvi koju su dali jedan drugom, deca se razdvajaju. Ulaze u tinejdžersko doba, kada se poriču dečiji snovi, nipodoštavaju bajke. Deda je preživeo sve ove godine, čekajući kraj, «da nema izlaza ». Umro je dan posle Dejtonskog sporazuma. Na kraju rata koji je uništio sve u šta je verovao.
The show, which goes back and forth between action and narration, traces the history of Yugoslavia of the eighties, through the eyes of two neighbors, children born in 1983. Tito died a few years earlier, the country, now led by a younger generation who wasn't part of the founding battles, is changing.
The grandfather of one of the children, an early communist, is trying, through stories of his, to preserve in them a world he feels threatened with extinction.
Children subscribe to the model of justice that is presented. They pledge each other to be loyal to these values, to grow together and become pioneers (communist boy scouts) together and to help build an even more beautiful country than it was. At the turn of the nineties, however, the model decays. They are the first generation not to become pioneers. A year after, Slovenia declared its independence, followed by Croatia and then the war broke out between the neighboring republics, and finally, within them. This is the end of the Yugoslavian socialist federation.
Gradually, and despite their oath, children are splitting up (separated). This is the time of teen age, the denial of the childhood dreams, the discredit of fairy tales. The grandfather survived all these years, waiting for the end, knowing "that things have become irreversible”. He died in the aftermath of the Dayton agreements. At the end of a war that has destroyed all that he believed in.
