Samo konec sveta

Louis, a thirty-four-year-old man, decides to visit his family, whom he hasn't seen in many years. He knows he's going to die soon. He wants to break the news to them himself, to his mother, his little sister and brother, and to his wife, whom he has never met. He wants to see his family one last time, whom he has left to lead a different life. For years, he sent them nothing but postcards, and they sent him messages about major family events and the birth of children. Now he'd like to meet them and talk to them one last time. But it's hard to talk about the most important things in life, especially with loved ones who may have already become strangers. The desire for closeness and attempts at understanding mingle with a sense of remoteness, of an insurmountable difference. "You live strangely in these cities," replies the mother as her son approaches, a feeling that constantly hangs over them. This remark applies to all of them, not only to the son who lives in the big city, but also to those who have remained in the provinces. At a meeting in the mother's house, memories resurface, old family ghosts reappear, mingling with an equally indefinite present, the confession of visions and half-realized personal lives.
