61st TIFF: Greek premiere

Alice has moved to Stockholm for professional reasons, leaving her husband and two children in the countryside. A toxic custody battle ensues, where Alice is portrayed as an incompetent and untrustworthy mother. Trapped in despair and denial, she takes off with her children for a week in Tenerife, determined to mend their broken bond of trust. A multilayered family drama that captures a woman’s struggle to balance between her desire for independence and her role as a mother.
