A cynical ad man, a lost girl, and chaos on a Croatian road trip nobody asked for.
Petar Gorjan is a 40-year-old successful propagandist and cynical strategist of consumerist society that is faced with family and identity crisis. He embarks on a journey from Zagreb to Dubrovnik, transporting humanitarian aid in his off-road vehicle, and on his way he will be accompanied by slightly mentally troubled Lukas and a vagabond girl.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Based on Goran Tribuson's novel, which Gamulin had been trying to adapt since the late 1980s.
