Standa, a slightly clumsy volunteer fireman and father-to-be consults with his role model, Chief Bróňa, about everything. When a suspicious car accident at the Easter fair causes irrational panic in the village amid fears of suspected terrorism, Bróňa becomes the leading voice of a newly established militia. He vows to protect his fellow citizens at all costs, as Standa remains caught between his increasingly fanatical behaviour and growing doubts about the entire situation.
