Ivona Juka's feature debut, which had its international premiere at the Karlovy Vary Film Festival, is an intimate drama that interweaves the stories of three protagonists in a triptych to explore the relationship between daughters and fathers. “The daughters in this story are not father's princesses, but strong personalities with many faults, limitations, fears and defeats, determined to face their own mistakes and transformations” (Ivona Juka, director and screenwriter). “Juka's
protagonists fight their way through the narrow and dark tunnel of their fate, because they see the light on the other side, even if only for a moment” (Urban Tarman, Radio Slovenia).
