  • Orig. Title: Luce i Mare

Luce and Mare are two young women living on the island of Vis at the beginning of the 1960s. They hide their love until one day a young man spots them kissing on the beach. In a tragic sequence of events, Luce is attacked, stoned and chased away from her family, while Mare marries her work colleague to avoid an equally evil destiny. When Luce learns that Mare has married she commits suicide by jumping onto the rocks in the sea. Mare, who still loves her, cannot bear this tragic waste and blinds herself. Fifty years later, Mare – now a cyber-granny – is once again reliving the biggest trauma of her life.
