Synopsis
Ever wondered who packs the fresh plastic-sealed salad you are having for lunch?
Who the people losing their factory jobs in dead end small towns would be? Ready for a visit to the ”new” Sweden?
When the forceful young Muslim Swedish/Balkan ”take-no-shit” factory worker Raša loses her job, she faces the system of unemployment.
With no high school diploma, no job – but her boots deeply stained with the mud of the small town she grew up in – Raša finds herself on collision course with society and it’s contradictable values and expectations.
First time amateur actors play all of the main characters in the film.
