A family of four must live an everyday life while the world around them shatters during the armed conflict 2001. While the bombing is ongoing these two parents are in a constant dilemma, protecting and sheltering their children inside thefour walls of their home, as they beg to play in the sun, or allowing them to play and have a childhood, while they’re still young enough to be shielded by their innocence and ignorance.
Whatever may happen, summer cannot stop its flow. As the watermelons grow ripe, the tobacco leaves dry and turn togold, colonies of ants gather their food, the clock never stops ticking, and the bombs continue to fall around themountain of Ljuboten.
