Directed by Blerta Basholli
Produced by AlbaSky Film, Alva Film
A quietly determined portrait of a widow-in-limbo building economic independence and dignity against patriarchal resistance in post-war Kosovo.
Fahrije’s husband has been missing since the war in Kosovo so she sets up her own small business to provide for her kids, but as she fights against a patriarchal society that does not support her, she faces a crucial decision: to wait for his return, or to continue to persevere.
