She was president of crisis-ridden Slovakia for five years. For five years, a film crew followed her closely, even in situations where other cameras could not. Political and personal dramas, meetings with world leaders over global dilemmas, but also with ordinary citizens over everyday problems. An extraordinarily intimate portrait of a woman who tries to bring a humanly open approach to the traditionally male competitive world of top politics, while above all remaining a good mother to her daughters. Both loved and hated Zuzana Čaputová.
