Danya is the story of a troubled 8-year old who is determined to find out about her late mother but her repressed father is unable to reach out to her. An elderly Bulgarian woman provides a bridge. Set in neighbouring terrace houses in an autumnal Sydney, Danya considers how three generations deal with death.
