History of Love



Sonja Prosenc : 2018
Zgodovina ljubezni

Seventeen-year-old Iva is in the process of coming to terms with the death of her mother. Influenced by this deep personal loss and by the discovery that she didn't know everything about her, the girl slowly immerses herself into a strange, almost dreamlike world far from reality. An elegiac tableau of a family dealing with the loss of the mother in the light of a new discovery about her. We witness the struggle of those who are left behind – people incapable of sharing their loss and connecting with each other in their almost physical pain, who are thus in danger of becoming nothing more than bodies of grief – until something is sacrificed and the family is able to reconnect. Sonja Prosenc's second feature received a Special Jury Mention when it premiered in competition at Karlovy Vary International Film Festival 2018.
