Malvina is an 80-year-old former ballerina. Her divorce in the courtroom is the beginning of her journey out of solitary confinement. When Malvina and her fiancé Kipras, who is the same age, buy tickets to Berlin, they notice that they don’t have Kipras’s passport – he had left it at the nursing home. Unfortunately, the head of the institution has no intention of giving him the passport, instead forcing Kipras to continue his treatment for dementia. Can love overcome loneliness and resist social taboos? What dark mechanisms of coercion lie behind our facade of respect for old age? This trip has been put off too long for it to be stopped now.
