Macedonia, 2010, 123 min
In the first part of the film two girls report a flasher to the police -
even though they never saw him. The second part is about filmmakers whomeet the only residents of a deserted village – an elderly brother and sister
who have not spoken to each other in 16 years. The third part shows a reporter
who writes about the murders of retired cleaning women which were found raped
and strangled in a small town. The fiction slowly turns into a documentary making
these stories unite in a film.
