Fleka – Sara Alavanić

Fleka rarely leaves the grounds around his building. He spends time with his neighbours and occasionally goes skateboarding. Ever since his mum was admitted to a psychiatric clinic, his best friend has become the only family he has. Sometimes he passes the time with a neighbour with learning difficulties, who shares his flat with a pig. Before long, Fleka comes to realise that this neighbour is his only true friend.
