A film about relationships where expectations are out of joint, especially where both partners have different cultural backgrounds. Set in the Netherlands, 'Burden' gives a contemporary glimpse of the dynamics of two relationships between Eastern European women and Dutch men. The movie explores their respective cultural differences. It explores female friendships and the difficulties of being 'foreign' in your adopted country. Also, how fate puts the friendship of these two women, one from Russia, and one from Ukraine, to the test by outside forces.
