Drama

A mother and her three daughters. The mother presents her daughters with a model of a domineering woman whom they do not understand and for whom they have respect. And even though they long for her love, openness and friendship in their hearts, they cannot get close to her. They don't understand what has caused their mother to be unable to love them all, without always choosing just one of them as a plaything, which she throws into a corner after a while. Nor do they understand their mother's dissatisfaction with her own life. They know nothing of her unfulfilled desire for a career, of her unloved husband, of her secret love for a young man... The story is interspersed with the serious event of her mother's terminal illness. Following this news, the daughters come to the old family home. And so, paradoxically, it is against the backdrop of an unpleasant fact that they are forced to meet and seek a way to each other.
