The film explores the funny side of a midlife crisis. At the heart of the story is a man torn between his wife, mistress, children, weight, work, a dog and high blood pressure, and who becomes increasingly entangled in a web of his own high expectations.
Jasna Nanut and Hrvoje Osvaldić penned the script, and the main roles are played by Krešimir Mikić, Iva Jerković and Iva Mihalić.
Formerly a TV journalist, Jasna Nanut filmed six award-winning short films before filming her first feature project. Since the start of development in 2016, the screenplay passed the MEDIA Creative Europe - Project Development Workshop, Branko Bauer screenwriting competition of the Croatian Film Directors' Guild and My First Screenplay Workshop at the Zagreb Film Festival.
The film was co-financed by the Croatian Audiovisual Centre at all stages of preparation, including 4,600 EUR / 35,000 HRK for script development, 16,000 EUR / 120,000 HRK for project development and 360,000 EUR / 2.7 m HRK for production. It also received additional support from the Croatian Radiotelevision. Isa Živanović is the executive producer.
The filming is expected to end in mid-November 2021 and the premiere is scheduled for the autumn of 2022.
