In the Dalmatian hinterland, not far from popular tourist destinations on the Adriatic coast, the local population has been forgotten. The roads are neglected, there is no public transport and no social life. The main source of income for the locals are their flocks of sheep. However, recently more and more wolves have been attacking flocks. Wind farms and quarries are expanding every day. The locals feel threatened, and a rumor is spreading among them that the European Union and the Croatian Government are secretly bringing wolves by helicopter in order to disperse the population and make room for new industries.
The Croatian-Serbian-Slovenian co-production Second Diary of Pauline P. directed by Neven Hitrec and screenwriter Ivan Turković-Krnjak will have its world premiere as part of the Children’s Competition Program.

The film is produced by Jure Bušić (Jaka production), Jure Vizjak and Maja Zupanc (Invida), Dimče Stojanovski and Stefan Orlandić (Living Pictures) and Mirko Bojović (Baboon production), and is supported by the Croatian Audiovisual Center, Film Center Serbia and the Slovenian Film Center.
