Bini has waited fifty years for the moment when he could reunite with Ruta, his childhood sweetheart, and return with her to the neighborhood where they grew up in Dubrovnik, Croatia. When Ruta is widowed, Bini realizes the moment has arrived. He buys two one-way plane tickets, gathers his courage, and comes home intending to tell Naomi, his wife, that he is leaving her.
His pulse quickens, the front door swings wide open, and… Bini finds himself at his and his wife’s golden wedding anniversary celebration, which their family has organized as a surprise.
Bini, who has never disappointed his family, smiles from ear to ear, savoring the blessings, cocktails, and family videos. But deep inside, he knows: if he follows his heart, he will break the hearts of the people he loves.
Past and present intertwine and merge into a wild, funny, and moving family story.
Inspired by absurd stories that really happened.
