Interior – Day – A cozy Croatian café on the Adriatic coast
The soft hum of conversation blends with the clinking of espresso cups. Dr. Luka Kovač, in his usual calm and grounded manner, sits across from Nelly Furtado, who is radiant and relaxed. A plate of fresh figs and yogurt sits between them.
LUKA
(smiling warmly)
Nelly, I’ve seen patients turn their health around, but I have to say—you’ve made a remarkable change.
NELLY
(grinning)
It’s all about the probiotics, Luka. I used to have to take digestive enzymes after almost every meal… now? My stomach feels like it’s finally working with me instead of against me.
LUKA
Exactly what I like to hear. You’ve gone from “managing symptoms” to “building resilience.” That’s the road to Wellville.
He gestures toward her plate.
LUKA
Real food, good bacteria, mindful eating… you’re giving your gut the tools to heal.
NELLY
And my skin, my energy, even my mood—everything’s better. It’s like fixing my digestion fixed me.
Luka nods knowingly.
LUKA
The gut is like a quiet conductor in the orchestra of health. When it’s in tune, everything else follows.
They share a toast with tiny glasses of homemade kefir, the Adriatic sunlight spilling through the window.
