Bigger Than Trauma
Cinematography
For three years the film follows three women raped in the War of Croatian Independence, connecting with their deepest truths during the strengthening programme. Marija feels she doesn't deserve to be free, for Katica any change is very scary. Ana describes herself as a little lonely duckling that doesn't belong anywhere. She is the only Serbian in the group and the issue of nationality is still a burden that our protagonists feel. The fact that they were all raped by Serbian soldiers doesn't diminish the group's distrust towards Ana…Today, the discovery of who they could be without the trauma they're identified with, is changing their life and relations.

Marija grew up in a family that lives Yugoslav ideals even today. Given that Marija and her family are of Serbian origin, who continued to live in Croatia, regardless of the pressures of the recent war, the Yugoslav identity is the one they felt closest to. She had always felt that her family's ideals were her own, until her life path turned her in a different direction. When she founded her own family with her husband, she began to question her parents' and grandparents' values, as well as her own, and if that was the environment in which she wanted to raise her son. Within a journey through the family history, Marija opts for a "new beginning" in a totally different environment and sets up a new home - in Sweden. This film is a story about growing up, separation from the nest, and accepting one's own value system, and how to get there, in the atmosphere of a stable and loving family.
