Everything that's Wrong with You (Slovene: Vse, kar je narobe s tabo, fiction) is a 2026 drama film written, and directed by Urša Menart. A co-production between Slovenia, Serbia and Germany, it follows Maruša, a young woman in her mid-twenties dealing with her mother's illness, who forms an online bond with Alja, a nurse and social media influencer living abroad. When Alja falls ill, she travels to meet her.[2][3]

It held its world premiere at the 32nd Sarajevo Film Festival on 16 August 2026, screening in the Competition Programme – Feature Film, and competed for the Heart of Sarajevo award.[4]

Synopsis

After losing her mother, Maruša leaves Ljubljana and goes to her estranged father's farm in the Slovenian countryside. Feeling like an outsider there, she forms an online friendship with Alja, a Slovenian nurse working in northern Germany coastal town. Alja, who suffers from an unexplained illness, regularly writes about her condition online, and the two women gradually become close. When Alja's health worsens, Maruša travels across Europe to care for her. However, she soon begins to suspect that Alja may be faking her illness to gain attention, while Maruša herself may not be entirely honest about her own reasons for visiting. When she confronts Alja and threatens to leave, Alja responds by taking increasingly extreme actions.
