Painkiller
Painkiller is the story of Dijana – a proud Balkan-mother and cleaning woman – and her daughter Andrea – officially a successful artist, unofficially still living with her mum. They try, in their own ways, to make life better for one another but keep failing, again and again. Since Dijana is not getting any help for her chronic pain, her daughter has an idea to help her, in her own ways…
