    • Synopsis
    • Ten year old MOJA lives with her grief-stricken
      Slovenian dad and pregnant twenty year old sister
      Vesna in an outer suburb of Melbourne. Unable to
      accept the reality of her mother’s sudden passing, Moja
      focuses on preparing for the baby while Vesna is lost
      in troubles of her own. Adamant and full of light, Moja
      pushes on, hoping in vain that Vesna will eventually fill
      the mother-shaped hole in her life. But Vesna pushes
      Moja to accept that their mother has in fact died, which
      causes the relationship between the sisters to strain
      and as the birth draws closer the grieving family
      continues to fragment. After meeting Miranda and her
      quirky daughter Danger, a family very different to her
      own, Moja’s world begins to open.
