Our Everyday Life

The film tells us about the life and disintegration of an average Sarajevo family in the postwar Bosnian society. Having divorced his wife Nina, 30-year-old Saša moved back to his parents. His father Muhamed, played by Emir Hadžihafizbegović, works for a well-known company, mother Marija is a housewife and sister Senada, who is expecting, lives in Slovenia with her boyfriend. Saša's indolent attitude towards his job and family, Muhamed's inability to give up his obsolete convictions amidst the growing corruption and his discontent with the privatization of the company he works for seem to be too much for the agonized family. When marija finds out she has a cancer, the father and son realize how important family is. Depicted through traditional Bosnian folk songs, the fate and emotions of the film's protagonists weave an intimate and identifiable story, one of those we can see all around us.
