50-year-old Romanian Sadina Lungu is a 24-hour caregiver. She has been looking after 85-year-old Mrs. Pöschl in Bad Vöslau for years. Sadina's life is monotonous and exhausting. Loneliness gnaws at her. Fitness exercises, smoking and online conversations with family and friends in Romania help her get through the days. For 14 years now, Sadina has endured three to five months at a time before she can go home for a month to be with her loved ones, whom she supports financially, and do what she wants to do. With her long assignments, Sadina is a rare phenomenon in the industry. How does Sadina manage her life away from home? What does she do to combat the danger of alienation from home? How does she manage to stay with herself in the face of various physical and mental challenges and get something out of life herself?
