Plots(1)

For the author of the film, regular family breakfasts, lunches and dinners were a tradition. The father, mother, daughter and from time to time also the son, used to discuss mainly current political events, films they have seen, the family's budget or the lives of some of their acquaintances. One day the daughter decides to open a wholly different topic. Instead of everyday regular affairs, deeply buried family secrets start to surface; secrets known about but never talked about.
