Europa

Comedy about the possibilities, which the over glorified Europe offers to the young people – the Slovenian version

Maks is a literature graduate who has no money, no job and no home. This actually makes him a typical representative of his generation. He has no other choice but to return to his home town. But there, he is not greeted by a warm mother's embrace. Criticism of a provincial little nest is in fact criticism of »mother« Europe, manifested as a »cannibalistic entity«.
