A criminal named Gojko (Bojan Navojec) is on death row when he begins receiving "messages" from St. Petka through mobile phones. This segment parodies how modern technology and superstition intertwine in a society transitioning toward capitalism.
Stojan (Goran Navojec), a simple and kindhearted man, wakes up with a literal glowing halo after a freak accident with a light bulb. While he is reluctant to be a "saint," his wife Nada (Ksenija Marinković) forces him to commit various sins—from gluttony to cruelty—hoping to rid him of the divine mark. Ironically, the more heartless he becomes, the more the community respects him.
