The film, which the director described as “an internet drama with supernatural elements”, is a contemporary story of self-awareness. The main character is a woman whose father has died and who begins seeing signs and symbols in her life as she journeys back to her family’s native village. The title takes on multiple meanings: the traces of pigment that disappear due to her skin disease; the traces of symbols on tombstones and in graffiti; and the disappearing traces of her once-large family.
Turic said she will employ “a poetic style and visual approach” in the film, adding, “The sound atmosphere is very important.”
The film has a budget of 994,000 EUR. The producers have secured half of the financing through the Croatian Audiovisual Centre and Croatian TV. Shooting is planned for 2020.
