Dvojina
Due to a technical malfunction, Iben's flight from Denmark to Greece makes an unscheduled landing in Ljunlijana. There she meets Tina, whose summer job is as shuttle bus driver. The girls get to know each other during a sleepless night where we uncover one's difficult secret and the other's need to find her place in the world.

After winning the Best Picture Award for The Trip at Sarajevo's Festival, the Slovak director Nejc Gazvoda returns with a love story that hides a delicate drama about making important decisions in the face of the difficulties that surround us, be they illness, work, immigration. This is an honest story about two people who meet at the wrong time and, despite this, decide to take a leap forward together, driven by their mutual attraction and innocent love.
