Veronika Tůmová / Czech Republic / 2024 / World Premiere / 15 min.

synopsis

In my film, I try to understand what it's like to be a mom, but not to be where moms are, somewhere at home with their kids. So I ask my distant aunt, who went to Banat for four years, what it was like. How did she cope with the pressures of her surroundings, the homesickness and all the hard and beautiful things that surrounded her decision. I visit the place where she lived and reflect on what I would have done myself.
