This poetic journey through the collective memory of humanity seeks answers to such existential questions as where we come from and where we are going.

Do unspoken memories shape who we are? Perseverence is a mosaic-like narrative of events that have left an indelible mark on the film's protagonists, each story representing their thoughts, fears and wishes. A collage of intimate stories, it explores life in all its depth of emotion, memory and knowledge.

This poetic journey through the collective memory of humanity seeks answers to such existential questions as where we come from and where we are going. Award-winner for best original screenplay, best supporting actress and best supporting actor at the Festival of Slovenian Film.
