SYNOPSIS

A young war veteran tries to cope with the economic hardships of post-war Bosnia, while his father cannot give up his social beliefs in an increasingly corrupt society. When the problems start mounting up, both of them realize that it is actually only family that matters.

The story depicts a middle-class Sarajevo family, struggling with all the problems typical for a post-war society; unemployment, migration, broken family ties, crumbling health system and a growing dilemma among the younger generation, whether to leave or to stay. The story correlates to the director’s generation for which the 2000’s have offered neither real freedom, nor successful job opportunities or progress. It is as if their life has been placed on hold.
