This leaves untold number of love-starved female residents craving male companionship; when sisters Ognjenka and Boginja accidentally kill off the last male, execution by the other female members of the village is a near certainty. The siblings receive a second chance, however, in the form of an ultimatum: they must set out on a quest to retrieve one virile male and bring him back to the village. If they can succeed in this task, their lives will be spared. Thus, the women embark on a journey into the surrounding country; en route they happen upon such discoveries as the lusty and lascivious Dance Hall King of Belgrade and an impossibly vain muscleman. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi
