NO FAIRY DUST

by Maja Miloš

synopsis

Marija, an ice skater, lives on the outskirts of Belgrade with her truck-driving father. Crushed by grief over the premature death of her mother, Maria does not know how to express her sexuality. She perceives this failure as her big, haunting secret. When Marija’s father becomes close with a woman, he invites her and her two daughters to move in. Marija supports her father’s choice, but understands she cannot trust her new stepmother. The family struggles financially, so Marija is expected to earn extra money. She wants to protect her father by hiding from him the work assignments that take her into the world where women are sexually exploited. This only increases the pressure on her already suppressed sexuality.
