This film presents the craftsmen from the territory of Dragačevo, which used to be known for a large number of different crafts. Many of them are slowly falling into oblivion, but some have survived, adapting to the needs of the modern market. In the film, Milka Blagojević and Ilinka Slavković talked about their craft, where they create works of art from wool, with knitting needles in their hands. The owner of the oldest tavern in Guča, Predrag Broćić Dačo, told us about his profession in the past, and his heirs, daughter Danka Mudrinić and grandson Uroš, about the work tasks of a modern tavern-owner. Vladimir Slavković, the only active producer of lime in Rti, explained the method of lime baking. Marko Stojanović, a young blacksmith, spoke about his trade and his return to his native Guča from Belgrade.
