An interesting drama by Yugoslavian director Jovan Zivanovic about a young woman with internal conflicts, this is one of the few Eastern bloc films of this era without a covert or overt political message. Minja (Spela Rozin) leaves her provincial town suffering from some trauma caused by an older man. As she is on her way to studying in a big university she runs into a journalist and though she is angry, embittered, and temporarily without grounding, she has a one-night-stand. Her morals take a downward turn after arriving in the city and for awhile, it looks as though there is little hope of her recovering from her past wounds.
