The script penned by Bojadzi himself follows Aida, a young doctor whose life is upended after she is raped by her influential senior colleague. The corrupt court rejects her lawsuit on the grounds that during the event she did not offer strong enough resistance. At the same time Joanna Pelasca, the wife of the former prime minister, and her children are being pursued by the authorities because of a video file they may possess that shows what happened in their house the night the American ambassador stole a small bronze antique figurine depicting the “Rape of Europe.” Both women are looking for enough reasons for one to leave and the other to stay in the country.
The main cast features Nina Dean, Irena Ilievska, Goce Andonov and Jana Nikodinovska.
The film is a Macedonian joint, produced by Jani Bojadzi through CinemonMedia Factory and Dejan Miloshevski through Revolution Production, in coproduction with Alfa TV.
The total budget stands at 480,000 EUR.
Shooting took place over 42 days and wrapped in mid-October 2024.
The premiere is expected in early October 2025.
