Synopsis
A twelve year old girl who’s leaving a corner food shop is bothered by two girls, older than her. They start to follow her around the apartment blocks. At the end the father of the younger girl appears. Wanting to teach them a lesson he crosses the borders though. The film becomes the parable of the complex human nature – it touches upon the source of evil, aggression, it defies the existence of patterns of the human behaviour. It poses a question who is the enemy, who is a friend? Do we know those who are most close to us?
