CGiii Comment
The meat has been stripped from the bone.
What should have been a meaty story turns out to be a mundane comment on the monotony of being the son of a prostitute.
Beautifully photographed and monumentally dull.

The(ir) Blurb...
Ozren is raised in Vienna by his mother Silvija, who works as a prostitute, and his aunt and uncle. The film shows the demimonde of Vienna in the early 1990ies and deals with Ozren's finding out that his mother is not a waitress (as he was initially told) and with the way he copes with it.
