Plot
A mentally disturbed middle-aged musician falls in love with an attractive young girl.
Mihailo, once a brilliant young pianist, is now a piano teacher at an educational center. His colleagues consider him an oddball, but they leave him alone to live his lonely life. Everything changes when a young girl appears at his school. Contact with her, a new, erotically intense life, causes a strange phenomenon in him - as he has seen it all once before. Namely, the situations he experiences seem repeated to him. His trauma, the piano, causes painful emotions and pathological fear, a fusion of past and present, pushing him into tragedy.
