Northern Skirts
Austria 1995. Jasmin, Tamara, Valentin, Senad and Roman are five young people from different backgrounds who meet in Vienna, sharing their lives and desires for a short time.
Each of them tries their luck on the northern outskirts of Vienna. Between jobs, involuntary motherhood and painstakingly repressed experiences of the war in former Yugoslavia, they attempt to offer each other warmth and support. Often clumsily and awkwardly, but always filled with a desire to love and be loved – until their lives drive them in different directions once again.
