As if to relieve us from our busily speedy lives, Degrutolla offers a slow paced drama which looks deeply into the dynamics of a relationship between Nik and Katerina. This is no ordinary relationship though, οr is it? But what is ordinary anyway? And what makes up a relationship in the first place? While we find ourselves struggling with these questions, we watch the two characters battle in the workplace, within their friendships, and with what society understands as mental health.
Nik and Katerina transfer into their evolving relationship remnants of their past histories. We get a glimpse of Katerina trying to cope with a troubled family back at her home country. And then it's Nik; a man surrounded by mystery about his past, as we gradually find out a series of tremendous losses that have knocked his sense of being.
