Gradska cura

Gradska cura

Nicola Craus, Emma Mclaughlin

The girl, a twenty-one-year-old New Yorker, believes that the general emancipation of women is as easily attainable as volunteering in a local feminist organization.

However, she will soon realize that no job is as easy as it seems, and even the director of the organization in question is not completely immune to the exploitation of her employees. The girl will dispose of volunteering as scrap metal, and her present will become what torments twenty-something-year-old women in all cultures, because whether they are looking for a job in New York or Zagreb, the path to the first, new, real job is always equally thorny.
