Žene koje vrište u sebi

Žene koje vrište u sebi

Nives Madunić Barišić

Lorna is a social worker, Urša is a retired harpist from the National Theatre, Tajra is a psychologist, and Tina is a very young mother and wife exposed to domestic violence.

When Tina seeks help at the Social Work Center, the lives of these four women begin to intertwine. While Lorna tries to understand when and how her own life slipped out of her hands, Urša struggles with unbearable poverty like most pensioners in Croatia, Tajra has a hard time dealing with prejudice, racism and her own rebellious character, and the youngest of them, Tina, lives exposed to daily brutal physical and verbal violence from her father-in-law and tries to protect her young sons and unborn child. Four women of different ages, destinies and personalities at a certain turning point in their lives are drawn into a web of relationships through which they change and finally free themselves.
