The journey is in him and in us. The journey is by bus, cab, train, bicycle, words, thoughts, and on foot. The journey is through people, through time and through places: the plains of Vojvodina and abandoned farms, Hungarian estates and Zvonko's towns - Sombor, Subotica, Novi Sad, Belgrade... We move slowly, but unexpectedly, through the songs of Zvonko Bogdan and the era that still only lives in them.
