The Lost Dream Team is a story of the last Yugoslav basketball team and their quest for a gold medal in the face of political turmoil and the ensuing period of war. It is a psychological study of the players, the trials and tribulations of their comradeship, and their remarkable experience of being a part of a unique team in sports history, the only team that won a gold medal, stood on the podium and watched their flag being raised—all for the glory of a country that ceased to exist three days earlier.

The main theme of the movie is the six-day period of the European Championship in Rome, 1991. On the one side, we have a powerful sports story—the pursuit of a trophy to alleviate the national turmoil. On the other, we have some very humane, emotional stories and confessions—how do you keep on playing for the team that shares the name with your homeland's aggressor? To win? For whom? What happens when you realize that no one really gives a damn about that country?
