Synopsis

The Kafkaesque process of renovation of the Slovak National Gallery has been going on for over a decade and there is still no sign of its completion on the horizon. For all these years Alexandra, the managing director of the Gallery, has fought along her father, the architect appointed to the reconstruction, to bring to the public the dream of a modern cultural institution. Between never-arriving permits and the constant fight with the constructors, this bureaucratic rollercoaster brings Alexandra to wonder if her mission is a hopeless task.
