This is a character-driven film in which the emphasis is placed on the fine-tuned rendering of all the main characters. Revolving around two big family gatherings – a wedding and the Christmas Eve – this is a story of Boro Bura, a young jazz musician who is trying to reconcile his quarrelling family members. Slowly, the plot is pushed aside and the characters’ reactions to events that happen around them take the central stage. Drama and comedy constantly intertwine, driven by people’s different perspectives of the same event.
