Discovered this summer in the Directors’ Fortnight section in Cannes, where the film won the prestigious Caméra D’Or, Murina follows the journey to emancipation of a young woman determined to take charge of her own destiny. Julija, a spirited teenager, and Ante, her authoritative father, live a peaceful but isolated existence on a Croatian island.
