Did you know? The film was shot entirely on the remote Dalmatian island of Lastovo, with the crew living among the local residents during the off-season to capture the authentic, stormy atmosphere of a community on the brink of abandonment.
Why Watch: "Small Things" masterfully transforms a tense inheritance debate on a storm-lashed Dalmatian island into a gripping portrait of family decay, anchored by Anica’s fierce determination to hold the pieces together. This raw, atmospheric drama cuts deep into tradition and survival, proving that the most devastating storms happen inside the home. Watch it for a haunting, beautifully acted story that lingers long after the credits roll.
As icy winter storms roll in, a tiny Dalmatian island grows increasingly empty. A multi-generational Croatian clan convenes inside a rundown family home to hash out an inheritance. But the conversation takes a sharp, unexpected turn when fresh dilemmas surface—slowly dismantling their fragile, old-fashioned family dynamic. Among them, a woman named Anica resolves to hold everything together, whatever the cost.
