LOGLINE
Éva lives a nightmare. She has the terrible suspicion that her husband has done something to her five-year-old daughter. Éva seeks help from her best friends. But can they help her?
DIRECTOR STATEMENT
How do you confront the other with your suspicions? How exactly does that happen? And when you have overcome your shame and fears, how can you be sure that the other person is telling the truth? What is the guarantee for this and is there any? How do people behave to whom this secret is shared? How do you deal with that, which is still taboo in society? How do we think and how do we cope with such a crisis situation?
Stream is only possible in Austria
