A young Afghan woman comes to Belgrade at the height of the migrant wave and learns that her younger brother drowned in the river three weeks earlier. Then her struggle begins to bury him under her full name.
Ršumović penned the script together with Momir Turudić. The main role is played by Fereshteh Hosseini, an Iranian actress coming from Afghanistan. The cast also includes Nikola Ristanovski, Reza Akhlaghirad, Vule Marković, Branka Katić and Miloš Timotijević.

Ršumović’s directorial debut No One’s Child / Ničije dete, produced by Art & Popcorn, and coproduced by BaBoon Production and Kinorama, won four awards at the 2014 Venice Film Festival: the Audience Award, the International Critics' Week Award, the Fedeora Award, and the FIPRESCI Prize.
