'A Handful of Sand' is a love story and an ode to lost opportunity. Written as a duet for two narrators, we hear both the male and female voice trying to tell us their tale. Steeped in the social context of contemporary Croatia, its themes are vast: parenthood, loneliness, unhappy love, the absence of faith, the struggle for life.
