Her parents have gone to a funeral and Vanina has the chalets in the picturesque yet godforsaken village in the French Alps to herself. The boredom is only broken by the Skype sessions with her friend Eloïse. Then the babysitter Mary Jane arrives. Their love-hate relationship comes to a surprising conclusion. Mati Diop’s Big in Vietnam screens in the compilation programme Tiger Awards Competition for Short Films 1.
