Can a family survive? The film follows the situations and atmosphere on a property faced with foreclosure.

Can a family survive? The film follows the situations and atmosphere on a property faced with foreclosure. This procedure involves a long timeframe in which the Medak family gets very used to the camera and it becomes part of their daily life. Meanwhile, their normal life falls apart… This film will force you to ask yourselves how can a family function normally, knowing that in two days, two months or two years they could be thrown out in the street?
