Director: Anna Fernandez De Paco
In an unspecified village, a man is yelling at Boja for being slow at milking the goats. Is the woman watching them the man’s wife? The relationship between the three characters remains unclear. Even though nothing much happens in this film, there’s a intensifying air of foreboding as the screen presence of each character speaks eloquently without saying a word, and allows us to feel something of their past (which is not discussed). The unsettling atmosphere is finally brought to a cinematic catharsis with the echo of their singing. This film was produced under the mentorship of Béla Tarr from the Sarajevo Film Academy’s Film Factory program.
