Girls and Other Things

Frode Storaas
Elizabeta Koneska
2013
30 minutes

The film follows Filip, a 17 year old Macedonian, in his everyday life as a student in Brod where he stays at a boarding school, and as a son and grandson during the weekends in his home village.

His life reflects the situation in Macedonian countryside where unemployment forces people to leave the villages. This situation of dejection also shadows the relationships between ethnic and religious groups.
