Old love never dies. Besides, it is also blind. Completely blind! That is why it forgives everything. A play by theater comedy master Miro Gavran tells a story of a love that was not defeated by gray everyday life, social condemnation, or betrayal.
After 20 years of marriage, Ana, like many women, began to think that her husband was a real loser… Honestly! However, that was not the worst thing that could happen. For Ana, a charming geography teacher, on top of all the marital disappointment, she had to endure public humiliation: her Ivo, who had worked for pennies his whole life, is scandalously sent to prison for a bank robbery! And just as Ana manages to fix her shattered life, finding peace in the arms of her second husband Marko, a cool school principal, a law enforcement error comes to light: Ivo, without waiting, returns home – to his ex-wife and her new husband…
The confusion in this house and in people's hearts seems to be hopelessly unsolvable, especially when Ivo finds a new crush – the charming doctor Marija. Is it possible to forgive betrayal and regain lost trust? Is it possible to erase disappointment and keep only bright feelings? Is it possible to close one's eyes to a passion for a third person burning in a loved one's eyes? No, not everything is possible. But who, if not women – Ana and Marija – will find a solution.
