Elephant in the room
Without understanding why, Irna senses that the relationship with her son Jago is getting more and more hopeless. She seeks comfort in her own world, where rubber doll Elias makes up her reality. While Irna holds on to this reality with all her might, Jago is desperately trying to make his mother understand her problem.
