If anyone ever hit the ground running, it was Luàna Bajrami. She was nominated for a Cesar for her stunning portrayal of the maid in PORTRÄT EINER JUNGEN FRAU IN FLAMMEN. Inspired by the film, the 18-year-old wrote a screenplay and directed her first feature film:
The lives of Qe, Li and Jeta in the province seem mapped out, but they want more and form a gang.
The film impresses with its excellent casting, outstanding acting performances and the impressive camera work of Hugo Paturel, who also makes his debut here.
