Whites Wash at Ninety

Growing up in late Yugoslavia, Bronja experiences a childhood marked by family tensions and early losses: her mother's death shakes her life profoundly. As a young adult, she herself receives a cancer diagnosis – yet her boundless will to celebrate life remains unbroken. While the country around her crumbles and reinvents itself, she fights through personal crises and grows from them. Between illness, loss, and political upheaval, WHITE WASHES AT NINETY tells the moving life story of Bronja Žakelj – a film about resilience and the art of living on despite everything.
