SYNOPSIS

ANDREA, 30, is a smart and gifted person who strives to put her life in order. Andrea does not feel the desire to be with men or accept the social role of a woman, with the corresponding actions. Her mother tries to contact her by phone every day, but Andrea can barely answer yes or no to her long questions. It is as if the mother has never seen her daughter up close and knows nothing about what is really happening in her soul. Her mainstays of identity are her taste in art, painting, and her deep desire to create a child. Andrea paints large abstract canvases reminiscent of the work of Georgia O'Keeffe. In her library, you can see books by Sartre and Camus, Rimbaud and Verlaine, Virginia Woolf, Exupery, and Kant. Anne Sylvester, Dalida, cello, and piano are playing in her house. Andrea lives more in her imaginary world than in the real one. Andrea is constantly fighting for her bread. Until one day, a large company that dominates the world market of sex toys appears in town, and Andrea is hired because of her knowledge of the French language. Her lack of strong sexual experience contrasts with the overexposed theme of sexual pleasure. She is assigned the task of writing advertising descriptions to sell the company's products. At her workplace in the big company, Andrea meets LOUIS, a Cuban illegal migrant who managed to reach Bulgaria, skillful and in complete control of his life. He lives in daily fear of the immigration authorities. Andrea is the only one who manages to see and understand that behind his masculinity and determination lies a mixture of confusion, naivety, fear, and a desperate struggle for survival. Their friendship quickly transforms into something different. Andrea and Louis agree to have a child together. Through this steep and rocky path of life, Andrea has a companion. This is BABA VOEVODA. This is that great-great-aunt who was banished in shame from their family and from the village. Baba Voevoda appears as an imaginary character that only Andrea can see. The unknown part of the family legend is that this great-great-aunt was banished for her unwillingness to accept the social role of a woman. On leaving the family, her own father cursed her that her soul could not die and rest until an heiress named her child after her. For decades, the unlucky soul wanders and waits for salvation. The birth of a child will save her.
