The film is placed in the world of inexorable noise, dirty food and abundant alcohol. It is the world in which children play on the carousel while next to them amateur strippers entertain loud men against the background of turbo-folk music. Our protagonist is Brankica – a former star of a legendary family of circus performers and acrobats. They called her the Wall (of Death) Princess. Today, Brankica is a grandmother of six grandchildren and she is only 42. She finds herself stuck in that perverse world of Balkan country-fairs, repeating the same old life-threatening stunts on her motorcycle while riding on the sidewalks of an enormous barrel.
