Dua

Thirteen-year-old Dua (Pinea Matoshi) is engulfed in a whirlwind of change. Her body changes in parallel with the socio-political circumstances of the city of Pristina, where she lives with her Albanian family in the late 1990s. After an incident that deeply shakes her community, she faces new, all-pervading feelings. In the new film by Blerta Basholli, the author of the first Kosovo film to be shortlisted for the Oscar (Hive, ZFF 2021. ), the horrors of growing up merge with the atmosphere of fear in Kosovo just before the outbreak of war. The duo premiered at 65. Criticism Week in Cannes, where she won the SACD Award.
