After young Mara gives birth to Ivan, a chain of unexpected and nerve wrecking events begins. Ivan’s father Rok, a married businessman whom Mara obsessively loves, is missing. When she finds out that Rok is accused of a white-collar crime, she gets brutally beaten by his wife’s cronies. Mara and Rok manage to get together, but Mara finds herself in an impossible situation when she has to choose between her lover and her child. It’s a rough and thrilling personal drama on the background of corruption. A drama of taking the wrong choices.

„I do not see it as a film from a female perspective. It is my film and my perspective, my worldview, my reflection. The truth is that I got the idea for this film when my son was born, five years ago. I asked myself in what kind of society he had been born into. I took a good look at it, and I felt like screaming. That is the same type of scream that the protagonist emits at one point in the film, when she loses everything – her life, her child, everything. It all started from there, from the feeling I tried to express through the film.”
