Louise L. Lambrichs

Three generations of a wealthy Bordeaux family are caught in the crossfire when Anne decides to run for mayor, thanks to a political pamphlet that revives an old murder scandal.

Ridden by guilt for not being able to have a child, wife decides to conceive by cloning. The daughter she gives birth to is therefor almost identical to her. The child starts to grow rapidly and slowly replaces mom in the household.

This is a story of the Croatian journalist Sinisa Glavasevic, the Croatian Radio station in Vukovar and sufferings of all Vukovar's inhabitants during the siege. At the same time this is also an archetypal story of love for one's own hometown, of integrity and responsibility of the individual who, at the hardest trials of his own conscience and responsibility, chooses to take the more difficult path, in circumstances where others - the average and the conformist - abandon ship. Sinisa decided to stay.
