Sami is an illegal worker in Oslo that minds his own business and breaks his back to support a family in his home country. When forced to babysit the son of a boss he admires, and aims to become like, Sami faces the choice we all try to balance on a daily basis; family and work. Both require loyalty. Both want dedication. Both change us, but whichever we spend most time with changes us in its own direction.
Izer Aliu (b. 1982) graduated from the Norwegian Film School in 2012. His exam-film To Guard a Mountain dubbed him one of ten Nordic directors to watch in a collaboration by the four largest Scandinavian film magazines. He has been nominated for the Student Academy Award and won several high-end, both national and international awards. Following his graduation he set out to make his first feature Hunting Flies in Macedonia, and the short The Good Life - Over There set in the cityscape of Oslo.
