Eva lives on her own, with two adolescent children. No much happens in her life, confined to a tidy home, her job as an architect and the apartment of her several years younger friend. Her children are becoming increasingly independent, her dates with Mladen, as it seems, are no longer but a habit. A fresh impulse to Eva’s life is her assignment to a new project, the design of prison cells in a new penitentiary building. Everything starts to unfold in a seemingly remote world which reminds us more of a film than of ordinary life. In this world Eva seeks new, radical solutions, even at the cost of her “boundless” freedom.
