Prishtina, Kosovo, late 1990s. As war looms and ethnic tensions escalate, 13-year-old Dua struggles to find her place among her peers and within her changing body. After an incident shakes her community, she becomes a target herself and bonds with a fearless girl, Maki, who draws her toward an unexpected form of resistance. Between the daily violence and the growing threat of exile, there is little room for quiet awakenings.

“The impressive second feature from Blerta Basholli brings an intimate, personal perspective to the turmoil of growing up in a time of conflict” – Screen.

Filmography: Hive (2021).
