Iva, working in rural Bulgaria's clothing factory while battling a mysterious illness, becomes her town's first COVID case. Despite not having traveled for years, she faces escalating blame—from factory owners, coworkers, her son, and eventually the entire community. As virus victims emerge, Iva becomes a social outcast. Cannes director and KV Crystal Globe winner Stephan Komandarev crafts a social mystery reflecting on aggressive capitalism and exploitation within the EU. The film comes directly from its Venice Film Festival world premiere.
