Hrvoje Mabić

For as long as he can remember, Alex never felt comfortable in a woman’s body. Jelena had a normal childhood, but the people around her cannot tolerate her boyish appearance. Salome grew up on the island of Rab. She was called Nenad there and she lived for the Carnival – the only day in a year when she could dress like a woman.
