Ne gledaj mi u pijat
Quit Staring at My Plate
In Marijanas Leben dreht sich alles um die Familie. Ob sie will oder
nicht. In ihrem winzigen Apartment leben Eltern und Kinder mehr aufeinander als nebeneinander. Kein Wunder also, dass sie
einander schlichtweg zur Weißglut bringen. Vor allem die vierundzwanzigjährige Marijana wütet. Als der autoritäre Pater familias
einen Schlaganfall erleidet, wird sie noch dazu in eine völlig neue Rolle gedrängt. Denn um das havarierte Boot über Wasser
zu halten, nimmt sie zwei Jobs an. Ihre Mutter und ihr geistig behinderter Bruder geben währenddes alles, um das Schiff zum
Sinken zu bringen. Völlig am Ende, findet Marijana Trost in zwielichtigem Sex mit Unbekannten – endlich frei! Jedoch: Was
tun mit dieser neugewonnenen Freiheit?
Marijana’s life revolves around her family. Whether she likes it or not.
They live on top of one another in a tiny apartment, driving one another crazy. Then her controlling father has a stroke and
is left completely bedridden, and Marijana takes his place as head of the clan. Soon, she is working two jobs to keep everything
afloat, while her mother and disabled brother do their best to scupper the ship. Driven to the edge, Marijana finds comfort
in seedy sex with random strangers – and this taste of freedom leaves her wanting more. But now that she has finally found
freedom, what’s she meant to do with it?
