Matriarch

The story of Jasna, a Croatian ex-pat who, due to her mother Anka’s declining health, is forced to return to a place she has been avoiding most of her life – her home. The two haven’t been in touch for years, but the proximity of death forces them to confront the ghosts of their past. It is also a portrait of life in a typical small town in the midst of Mediterranean hinterland. Plunging into the anxieties of the community, MATER subtly uncovers class, status, and gender issues that shape Anka’s and Jasna’s personalities – their stubbornness, strength, and tragic flaws.
