Štefica, a lonely woman from Zagreb struggling with weight and depression, changes her lifestyle with encouragement from a colleague and finds self-acceptance through three men. Filmmaker Dunja, dealing with her own romantic issues, directs a TV series based on Štefica’s story. This adaptation of Dubravka Ugrešić's novel Štefica Cvek In The Jaws Of Life was named Best Yugoslav Film of 1984, celebrating its 50th anniversary.

 

« Grlić’s films are a rarity in Yugoslavia: modern and witty stories of urban neurosis, mid- life crisis, upwardly-mobile media people, ex-convicts who cannot fit in and artists who have sold out. » (The Financial Times, Great Britain)
