Tanya a 35 ans et sa carrière professionnelle est une réussite. Son mari, Mare, est architecte. Tanya rentre chez elle très tard un vendredi soir. Mare se fâche et ils échangent des propos acides. Il est clair que Mare est jaloux. Il perd son calme et la gifle. Il est évident que ce n'est pas le premier incident de ce genre...The whole story takes place in one night in an apartment in Ljubljana. The shooting will take from three to five days (nights) at the most. The cast includes just two protagonists and a few mini-roles. Although the entire story actually takes place in real time (from 3:30 to 5:00 a.m.), it is highly condensed and emotional. The key question or the suspense is whether she will or will not walk out on him. The spaces in between leave enough room for the two leading actors to include their improvisations and experiences. 95% of the plot takes place in the apartment, on several tens of square metres only. To the director, it will be a special a challenge to create the right volume of the true film illusion, to create a dark drama packed with suspense and suppressed morbid secrets that we so fervently hide from the world. There will be no scenes of physical aggression (apart from two small exceptions), no hysteria (nil!) or shouting (maybe one or two remarks in raised voices at the most). The film will be built on the verbal conflict between the two protagonists, on skilful and reproachful twisting of low-voiced words and facts, and on immense psychological stress.
