BEST OF THE FEST - PROGRAMMER'S PICK
”This remarkable debut narrative directed by twenty-year old Kosovo/French actress Luàna Bajrami creates a terrain of unsettling fluidity and freedom in the empty void of post-socialist, post-conflict Kosovo. Its three teenage protagonists,rejected from university and inhibited from obtaining visas to leave their rural town, form a gang.
A stunning stylistic tour-de-force that rejects realist style and revels in the unresolved and the unexplained, the film possesses a bracingly original style, deploying the fragmentation of experimental film to alternate between the stillness of tableaus with the three women and the constant movement of cars, running, friendship, ambiguous sexuality, and open narrative structure.”
