Twenty-two-year-old Lana lives alone in an apartment in Zagreb. One day, an allegedly unknown man broke into her apartment. After a police insight, Lana remains living in an apartment with a broken front door and in anticipation of her father’s arrival.
Director's Statement:
Alone (Sama) is a psychological horror feature that narrates a dark side of the human soul: the power of mental prisons.
A story on several levels, where: at the top there’s a plot made up of twists, climaxes and tensions; at the center, a character-driven story, with three-dimensional personas within an immersive and credible world of fiction; and at the heart, a reflection of human relations.
My goal is to compose a story which puts the audience in the shoes of the victim and shows how easy it is to fall into an emotional trap. A story that plays above all on psychological tension, suspense, anxiety about something you know is about to happen.
