The film by Vesela Kazakova and Mina Mileva reveals the clash and gender-based violence in a patriarchal society. The idea initially belongs to actress Bilyana Kazakova, who also co-wrote the screenplay. Starring in the movie, besides the three Kazakova sisters, is Iossif Surchadzhiev and Maria Bakalova. The post-production was completed in France.
