On a remote Croatian island, a restless teenager clashes with her controlling father when a charismatic visitor awakens her desire for freedom.
On a beautiful but isolated Croatian island, restless teenager Julija struggles under the control of her oppressive father, Ante. When an old family friend arrives, bringing charm, influence and the possibility of change, tensions rise. As Ante chases a life-altering deal, Julija sees in the visitor a glimpse of escape, desire and dangerous liberation.
Rialto Recommends MURINA is sunlit, sensual and quietly explosive, a coming-of-age drama where paradise feels like a cage. Set against the glittering Croatian coast, it builds tension through family power, female desire and the hunger to break free. With Cliff Curtis adding magnetic presence, this is elegant, sharp-edged cinema with real bite.
