Jani Be Good

Story

Synopsis

Jani overhears a heated fight between her sister, Julia, and their mother, Winnie, the night before Julia runs away. While Winnie—a single mother and breadwinner—becomes increasingly intense at home, Jani withdraws into a quiet rage. She finds escape with her warm grandmother, Oma, who is preparing her own cremation. As Jani receives secret messages from Julia, the tension escalates until she finally confronts Winnie. Over four days leading up to Christmas, small, shared moments and arguments change Jani's perception of her mother, sister, and her own freedom.
