For a teenager on a countryside vacation with his parents and little sister, the only means of staying sane are a smartphone and pair of headphones. The problem with this however is that, notice though you might that the world is in the thrall of a zombie apocalypse, the fact that your father is currently in the process of murdering your mutated mother nevertheless escapes your attention.
Having achieved commercial success in his homeland with his feature-length productions, Serbian filmmaker Danilo Bećković turns his critical gaze in this short film to the behaviour of technology-addicted youths, drawing on humour and infectious music in the process so as to avoid giving the endeavour a pedagogical overtone.
