Set in the Yugoslav province of Herzegovina this crime drama follows a gang of thugs as they terrorize the locals, the tourists, and young women. The delinquent boys pay special attention to the newest girl in town who sells newspapers, and wager over which one of them will have her first. One boy is genuinely interested in her. When she spurns him, the other boys brutally gang rape her while her rejected suitor helplessly watches.
