Vanina, a 39-year-old flight attendant, works on a route onboard a Boeing 737. She complains about her new braces… What she really must do is confront her, since forever, absent mother, whose body lies in the cargo hold of the plane. The film premiered at the Locarno film festival in 2022.

“I strongly identify with this heroine, a child of an unprepared mother who was unable to give her the care, acceptance and love that she needed and so she remained hurt and distant. This film is for all those who still seek reconciliation…” (T. Neofotistos)
