Told over a 24-hour period, this deeply personal film – based on the writer/director’s own experiences – follows Bruno (played by director Juraj Lerotic) as he attempts to care for his brother Damir following an unexpected suicide attempt. Faced with a cold and uncaring bureaucracy, Bruno and his mother attempt to take matters into their own hands and help Damir find his own safe place.
