In a juxtaposition of ancient culture and present day, Koli (Nik Xhelilaj) is a young college student forced to reconcile his country’s archaic ways and obligations for a murder committed by his grandfather with his desperate desire for a modern life. Bessart Kallaku, Bruno Shllaku and Nijada Saliasi co-star in Albania’s official submission to the Academy Awards for its foreign language category consideration.
