The film by the directing duo Mina Mileva and Vesela Kazakova is a co-production between Bulgaria and France. It presents the family history of five women, talks about hidden violence and other topics that are difficult to talk about in our society.

This is the directorial duo's second nomination for these awards, after their first film "Cat on the Wall" was shortlisted in 2020. 

The European Film Awards will be presented on December 10 in Reykjavik, Iceland.
