Easy Land is a poignant examination of the obstacles and heartbreaks facing recent refugees. Sanja Zivkovic's debut feature follows Nina (Nina Kiri) and her mother Jasna (Mirjana Jokovic) as they struggle to build a life for themselves in a new country.
Jasna, a trained architect, has been traumatized by what she witnessed in Serbia. The after-effects are exacerbated by the menial jobs she must take to pay the rent. Meanwhile, Nina must deal with the regular tensions of high-school life, complicated by poverty and her mother's volatile psychological state.
Worse, one of Nina's teachers insists she intern at a local theatre company to make up for past transgressions. Plagued by the past, the two women are unable to find common ground and both veer towards the breaking point.
