A car is on fire on the road, a family shocked by the disaster is standing next to it. However, this dark comedy is about a wealthy Slovenian family that goes through a tragic event without even silencing an interview with Slavoj Žižek. When Julian, the son from his father's previous relationship, appears at the door of their glass residence, the boy upsets the balance of the family and exposes the flaws, fears, and dysfunctional relationships hidden beneath the facade of perfection. The Slovenian film, which participated in the competition program of the Tribeca festival for the first time, is a witty and pointed satire, borrowing the premise of Pasolini's Theorem, pointing the finger at the cynical superiority of the other in today's society.
