- Orig. Title: Srečen za umret
Ivan, a retired music teacher in his late 70s, has grown weary of life. His estranged son has been a constant disappointment, he envies his brother, who always enjoys life to the full, and – above all – he cannot keep up with the changing world around him. Ivan buys himself a plot in a graveyard with an unrivalled view of the Alps and checks into a retirement home so he can wait for his death in peace. However, the exact opposite happens: for the first time in his life he truly starts to live.
