Synopsis

Faruk Šego, a failed Bosnian writer facing deportation from Austria, must prove that he’s made a cultural contribution to Austrian society. His last chance is an off-theatre troupe that can stage a play he wrote as a young man. Faruk’s reluctant return to the theatre will force him to realize what’s truly important in life.
