Rok vdovy

Year of the Widow

After her husband´s fatal health collapse, Petra overnight becomes a widow. As she soon finds out, her grief and loneliness are not the only challenges she has to face. Unexpectedly demanding are also countless practical and administrative tasks that a person’s death brings in the 21st century. The fiction debut of an awarded documentary director draws an intimate and minimalistic drama that touches a taboo topic and captures a clash between a person's individual perception of a situation and the reality.
