Description
It's hard to imagine something as ugly as growing up in a family with an alcoholic father. No one would guess that forty-year-old Gábina, who seemingly has everything she could wish for in the form of a loving husband, three children, and a good job, cleaned up vomit after her drunk dad as a teenager and anxiously waited for his returns home. These are simply not the things one would want to brag about. But even the worst memories and experiences fade over time, the sharp edges, especially with the support of a loving environment, smooth out, and life flows calmly and steadily. However, that is only until Gábina receives the news that her father is dying in the hospital from a drug overdose... An unusually open and raw story about how alcohol can destroy family relationships is filled with lies, manipulation, resentment, and anger. It urgently and simultaneously mercilessly tells of human weaknesses, failures, forgiveness, pain, and the poison that people can carry for many years.
