Sestri

I like the movie because it's something different than other movies from our country, and i like teen dramas anyway. I won't say it's borring, but many unimportant scenes are long, and the important ones are put together too quickly, especially the end it's unfinished according to me.

I liked the movie as a whole and the story is a good one. Actors are great.

There are too many dark scenes and the speaking parts are way too quiet, I barely understood what the characters are saying.

There's a discrepancy in the scenography and the time we live in. It might be compelling visually but kids that go on swimming classes don't live in such homes. If say it is an exception, because yes some people live that way, the scenery is drastic. It feels like the story is set in 1994 just with smartphones and instagram.

The ending feels rushed and incomplete.

A surprisingly great movie, some great camera work and cool shots. The director managed to pull out a lot of expression and depth to the characters just by visuals alone. I like the setting and the general color palette. The music worked great towards setting the mood. I found pacing a bit slow for my taste, however it didn't affect the experience at all. Definitely worth a watch!

Ok we get it. 30 years ago Milcho Manchevski made a movie that made it to the oscars. It was dark and it was about the post war reality of the balkans. Fast forward 30 years in the present the Balkans and Macedonia has very much changed, evolved and we no longer live in some dark reality. Heck even when I was a kid I wasn't living in some dark reality. Why do we as Macedonians always have to follow this one line of storytelling which one person had success with? Even Manchevski with Before the Rain exaggerated the reality to express certain emotions that had to do with nostalgia and were connected to a certain storyline. I just wish that Macedonian creators start trusting their own creativity and even though this story is also dark understand that you can create different types of dark reality without having to misrepresent or copy some style which was successful in the past. We have some really amazing directors and actors in the area. And we have a damn awesome country too full of modern, upbeat and beautiful locations and towns! How's that for controversy!

I just finished Sisterhood and it won me over. I was thrilled to see a modern and universal story about navigating teenage relationships, coming-of-age, and sexuality told so skillfully. So thank you to Duma for moving beyond the black comedy and yugonostalgia that have plagued Macedonian movies for a while. The directing and the aesthetics are great and the acting was on point!

My warm recommendation for this little gem of a drama!
