ABOUT THE MOVIE
The generational transmission of the family gathering tradition leads to the collapse of its foundations and the creation of layers of a new tradition. This film is about one such gathering. More precisely, it's about the members of the author's family and relatives who find time and invest funds to meet every year in the summertime in the house of their ancestors in the village of Požari in Žumberak, willing to convey the family tradition that began at the beginning of the 20th century, from generation to generation.
