Info
The window into the world used to be television. Now there's YouTube. A portal that features the heroes of today – youtubers. From ordinary people we have artists and showmen unafraid of becoming public figures. Media stars that have created a work of art just by showing others how they live. The filmmaker spent a year among the best youtubers, as well as with newcomers, and tried to understand what drives them – what makes them publicly expose themselves to the public, what their motivation is, and whether they actually have anything to say.

How many forms can a modern family have? What kind of family do we want? Do we want one at all? An intimate look into parenting and partnerships today shows six different stories, six views on parenting and six different forms of family. For some it was a choice, some gradually came to it, some had no choice, and for some it didn't work out. Some might've done it differently, some wouldn't, some are happy, and others frustrated. But their stories represent many similar ones and families that are similar to their own.

The portrait of a young woman struggling with drug addiction. We follow a charming and somewhat naive girl who, after drug rehab, decides to start a new life, finish high school, and organize her private life. We gradually see the details of her life: work in the porn industry, serious illnesses, nonfunctioning family and bad relationships, mental problems, suicide attempts and the development of psychosis. With her kind nature and spontaneous joy, she infects others with her optimism, but her problems wear her down and each fall is a little further than the last.
