THE STATE OF SHOCK (Minority coproduction)

The first of May or Labour Day, 1986, Ljubljana. Metalworker Peter Zmazek is awarded a title "the worker of the Year" at the factory Udarnik (Shock-Worker) and in addition to that - an apartment from the social housing fund. He is so overwhelmed that he falls into a state of shock and remains in a daze; nobody can help him to wake up. Peter ends up in a psychiatric institution, dreaming his dream of communist paradise for full ten years. In the meantime, the state, the political (communist) system and his family fall apart. Peter wakes up the very moment when his former wife Marica marries his best friend, Jovo. When Peter shows up at the wedding party, a bitter-sweet comedy of confusions begins. The protagonist confronts a completely different world dominated by modern technologies, suspicious businessmen and newborn politicians.
