My Last Year as a Loser

Špela is almost 30, has studied art history but can't find work in her field. When she doesn't get the job she had hoped for at a local museum, she has to move back in with her parents and work as a waitress. Unfortunately, the new acquaintances she makes in the process are no help in getting her life under control. Director Urša Menart's feature debut captures the attitude towards life of "well-educated millennials and their parents, who had high expectations for their kids and feel powerless when watching them fail" (Director's comment Urša Menart).
