The “Women in Black” have been protesting against the Serbian regime's war policy in the center of Belgrade for five years - in black clothing, silently and with banners. They support deserters from all former Yugoslav republics, organize aid campaigns for refugees and publish books and their own magazine. The film portrays some of these strong personalities in the form of travel notes, beginning with the last international congress of the “Women in Black” in the summer of 1996 and ending with the large demonstrations in Belgrade in the winter of 1996/97.
