David takes his two children on holiday to the Adriatic Sea, hoping he can keep his crumbling bilingual family together. His seventeen-year-old daughter Klára, who is struggling with an eating disorder, falls in love there with a local boy, Denis. When Denis is accused of murder, David quickly takes the children back home to the Czech Republic. Klára’s condition rapidly deteriorates and she is eventually admitted to hospital. The only thing still connecting her estranged parents is the desire to save her. Hard times call for hard decisions…
Slovenian director Olmo Omerzu (Family Film), who lives in the Czech Republic, returns with an original drama about a family in crisis, laced with subtle humour and unexpected narrative twists.
