Money & Happiness

Upon arriving at their small apartment on the sea, Anđelka and Vlado find the garden neglected, and the roses and oleander withered. They learn that the reason for this is the tragedy that befell their neighbor Marija, a local islander who took care of their oasis of peace out of season. Despite their understanding and compassion, Anđelka and Vlado are restless: the numbers don’t add up, and the calculation is hard to ignore.
