"Ko zorijo jagode" (translated as When the Strawberries Ripen) is a Slovenian television drama produced by RTV Ljubljana in 1978. It was created as part of the prestigious "Skladišče" (The Warehouse) series, a cycle of dramatic programs that showcased contemporary Slovenian dramatic writing. The play serves as a stark critique of the "middle class" in Slovenian society during the late socialist era, exploring themes of moral decay, false decency, and the disconnect between public image and private reality.

Upon its release in December 1978, the film was met with confusion by older critics. One reviewer in Borba dismissed it as “a collection of sighs posing as a screenplay.” Younger audiences, however, recognised themselves instantly. A slang term emerged from the film’s dialogue: Okru (an abbreviation of okruženje – “the environment” or “the trap”). To be okru was to be trapped by a system that gave you everything except meaning.
