Vera is a middle-aged sign language interpreter who lives in Kosovo* and leads a well-structured life: she is the wife of a famous judge, a supportive mother and a caring grandmother. Her serenity is disrupted by the unexpected suicide of her husband, followed by an unwelcome, menacing parade of relatives who claim to have ownership over their family country house. When an insidious plan begins to unfold, Vera’s world will face danger and everything will seem to be on the brink of collapse. Fear and mistrust will force Vera to take the family’s fate into her own hands. Immersed in an ominous atmosphere, Vera dreams of the Sea is an intimate, yet universal portrait of a woman who must face the harsh reality of going against the deep-rooted gender troubles that prevail in modern times.
