About

Ahmet (Arif Jakup), a 15-year-old shepherd, lives
with his dad (Aksel Mehmet) and younger brother
Naim (Agush Agushev) in a small Macedonian
village. Since their mum died, Ahmet has become
responsible for the sheep and his little brother,
who has stopped speaking. Ahmet is besotted
with his neighbour Aya (Dora Akan Zlatanova) but
she is promised to someone else. Brought
together by their love of music, Ahmet rigs up his
tractor so Aya can practise dance routines with
her friends. A delightful and beguiling offbeat
comedy drama, with wonderful, natural
performances from the two young leads. Winner
of the World Cinema Audience Award at
Sundance 2025.
