Writing
Bait-and-switch structure that weaponizes your assumptions.
Acting
Tanšek and Škvorc's shambolic chemistry carries everything.
Director
Dafne Jemeršič
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Made during Slovenia's post-Yugoslav identity crisis, using sci-fi tropes to explore who owns 'reality' in a newborn nation. The Moon landing metaphor isn't subtle—it's vicious.
Director Jemeršič never made another feature; this 85-minute oddity remains her sole cinematic statement. Some say that's the point.
