I haven't seen a good albanian movie the last 10+ years and I was skeptical at first when I bought the ticket but..uauu!

Such a great,exceptional movie! The leading actress was amazing! The directing,music, everything was perfect and so real told! I strongly suggest seen it!

Such a powerful message! Well done👏🏼👏🏼

The film is beautifully made, has a perfect pace, is well acted and tells not only the story of a woman in Kosovo, but one that can be applied to many women in the workplace or society around the globe. I truly hope the movie gets out to a larger audience while I had the chance to watch it at the Zurich Film Festival.

The beautiful rhyme grandpa was humming in the car.. was beautiful.. anyone knows ?

I wonder if Fahriye cried because It was Indeed her husband's clothes yet she couldn't except this or Indeed her husband's clothes yet she couldn't except this or they were really Not her husband's clothes And she understood did she would continue to suffer in the unknown faith and time..

real drama real life real people real feelings, and the strength of women, despite all the annoying ignorance of men in the earth..

Basholli did a good job playing with Fahriye's facial expression, which has been completely neutral very long... until she felt productive and able to stand up..

Totally worth seeing. The strength, hardship, tolerance, stubbornness and dignity, integrity of these women fighting for whatever little money, the main character struggling to put food on the table, and being labeled a traitor! It's outrageous how the men sitting in their cafes doing nothing don't accept her willingness to work, so hard! And her children growing up in this environment one day they'll understand the work their mother proudly soldiered on for them. Knowing full well her husband wasn't coming back. Damn the war, all the pointless killings of men women children, the old the young, the unborn, such love and care comes out in the end, for the power of love will eventually prevail...xx.

Based on the true story of Fahrije Hoti & other widows residing in Krusha e Madhe during the 1999 Kosovo war, and the killings of village males by Serb forces. Afterwards males in the community tried to impose cultural traditional restrictions on female independence. But, Fahrije & other, mostly war widowed, women chose independence. One of which was starting their own business of making Krusha Ajvar, a red pepper spread, now sold in many countries.
