Film Synopsis:

When Maja travels to a remote island to resolve family inheritance issues, she does not expect to stay longer than planned. Overcome by new emotions and through a series of unforeseen situations, Maja will finally be forced to confront some issues from her past. Residents of the island live their usual unusual lives and particularly contributing to that are local mayor, Ico, and his partner in eco-friendly marijuana growing business, Nediljko. Only after she becomes friends with Saša, the extent of Maja's unresolved family issues becomes apparent. Her quest for inheritance becomes a quest for personal identity and forgiveness.
