More about tickets

Ahmet, a 15-year-old boy from a remote Yörük village in North Macedonia, finds refuge in music while navigating his father’s expectations, a conservative community, and his first experience with love – a girl already promised to someone else.

Winner: Sundance 2025 World Cinema Dramatic Audience Award and the Special Jury Award for Creative Vision.

 

“A film with serious points but choosing to make them with kindness and a mostly sunny worldview”  

The Guardian

In Macedonian and Turkish,
with English subtitles
