She loves her family and takes care of them, but at times she feels like a stranger in her own home. Who are these people with whom she is sharing her life? Mare catches herself gazing at the planes overhead, longing for change and craving the unknown. When a young man moves into the house next-door, she decides to put her life to the test… Starring Marija Škaričić (the European Film Promotion’s Shooting Star of 2011, who also headlined Andrea Štaka’s two earlier films and garnered acclaim in Mother of Asphalt [+lee también:
