Director’s Statement: Georgi Unkovski

Sticker comes from a real story about a period during which the DMV in my hometown, due to a shortage of windshield stickers, stopped issuing vehicle registrations. The very first scene, taken almost word for word from real life, inspired me to think about the possible extremes and consequences of this lapse in the bureaucracy. I wondered in which moment does a person snap, exposed daily to the labyrinth of these institutions and authority figures. 

In the film, playing with the tragicomic, exploring the humor in our suffering, I hope to show the effect simple bureaucracy can have on one human life, while at the same time attempting to show a human and imperfect connection between a father and his daughter.
