Two typical Slovenian families live in harmony across the road from each other. Until one of them buys a new car. A hilarious commentary on recent racism in Slovenia. On the Sunny Side of the Alps was the slogan of the tourist board. Slovenia: a beautiful country full of friendly and hospitable people!
