Synopsis
This contemporary social drama centres around the school cleaner Mirna. The collective is on strike for an increase in their material rights, and Mirna patiently and devotedly makes the days of the teachers on strike easier by making them coffee and performing her other usual activities. Outside the corridors of the school, she is married to a violent husband, whose heavy-handed aggression sometimes leaves a few marks on Mirna’s face. Her life reflects the lives of many who will recognise themselves in their struggle with the system of injustice or the injustice of the system. And Mirna doesn’t go through life ‘in gloves’.
