Ultra-stylish, evocative, and understated thriller where a model mother becomes a self-appointed detective in the pursuit of her daughter in a drug-related disappearance.

"Outside upscale architectural offices and trendy hair salons, we see a graffiti-covered capital city with references to online drug sales. Divorced Viktoria lives in a dream world, and when her daughter and best friend Alisa disappears without a trace, her life falls apart completely, and nothing seems understandable. Her ex-husband works at the local police station, and his interest is lukewarm. Is it really about drugs? Viktoria takes on the hunt herself. In Taras Dron's latest work, we constantly travel in a hypnotic borderland where the whole truth lies between fiction and reality. All senses are pampered in this Nordic Noir-inspired thriller where the cinematography truly triumphs."
