Jakov belongs to a generation of millennials who can't secure a steady life for themselves during an omnipresent crisis. He suddenly returns to his hometown to take care of his mother, who is suffering from a schizoaffective disorder. Their bond is strong, deep, and gentle, but pathological above all else. As her condition worsens, Jakov desperately tries to avoid her hospitalization, seeking help within the family but encountering distance and misunderstanding. Jakov's unbreakable connection to his mother prevents him from maturing and gaining control of his own life, leading him to his breaking point.
