SYNOPSIS

[EN] Two women-refugees live in a partnership, helping each other with children, mundane problems and loves. One of them has a bipolar disorder. This friendship-based type of partnership allows them to tolerate issues that might have been more difficult to be tolerated in a regular marriage. The narration is poetically intervened with documentary inserts of interviews taken by the director just upon the fleeing from the native country ceased with war. These inserts show the origin of the trauma. Painful flashbacks consistently glitch in the heads of those who were burned by some hard experiences. Burned but not burnt. The heroes are still headed into living on the fullest.
