A mother takes her daughter to a foreign country and locks her in a house in a remote village. What begins as the mother’s attempt to save her selfdestructive child, turns into an increasingly miraculous spiritual adventure, restoring the life within herself.

The budget is 774,000 EUR with a share of 72.53% provided by Slovenian and 27.47% by Italian production companies, executive producer Petra Vidmar from Gustav film told FNE.
