An absurd coincidence intertwines the lives of a Yugoslav hit-man, his former wife, with whom he is obsessively in love with, and her boyfriend - a New York cop whose father was a criminal. Uncle Vanya, as is his code name, grew up as an orphan in Bosnia. He didn't know his parents, so he didn't know if was Serb, Croat or Muslim. A victim of his circumstances and his past in war-torn Bosnia, he became a hit-man against his own will. He constantly wants to quit but can't, because he is blackmailed by his boss - a burnt-out former covert operations agent. Vanya's supposedly last job is a money for drugs exchange in a hotel, where everything goes wrong. Vanya takes a hostage - only it turns out the hostage is his former wife, Anna. Her boyfriend - the cop Dirk Malloy - gets on their trail, as well as Vanya's boss and two of his inept thugs - illegal immigrants from Lebanon and Italy. All of these characters do what they do out of or for love - or what they believe to be love.  Through a series of confrontations, their lives and relationships unravel. For some, the end is the beginning, for others it is a different story. (Accent Film Entertainment)
