Director's comment

Sacrifice in order to achieve it. For me, the important thing for the film was to be absolutely authentic. I don’t like dramas that suffocate you with all their fate and seriousness. Even in a dramatic work, you can play with humour. It is usually a bit dark and absurd, or maybe even out of place. It’s not about slapstick or clever one-liners, but a choice of viewpoint. No, it is not a tragicomedy; it really is drama.
