A warm, music-driven coming-of-age comedy about a teenage boy caught between tradition and self-discovery in a conservative Macedonian village.

15-year-old Ahmet, from a remote Yuruk village in North Macedonia, finds refuge in music while navigating his father’s expectations, a conservative community, and his first experience with love — a girl already promised to someone else.
