Or, being in a desperate need to get away from the filth of society and self destruction(Speedy, with his apperent drug-use). And Viljuška joining, to make sure his brother-in-law dosen’t get killed).

It takes you to a tragic ride through time: the inauguration of the tunnel (1970's), Milan and Halil's innocent(yes, crushing the skull of a old prostitute with a stone is self-defense) childhood(1980's), their last days of being friends (1992) and the horrors and trauma of war (1993-1994).
