Like a Sick Yellow
Si e verdhë e sëmurë
We’re observing prenuptial family rituals on degraded VHS somewhere in suburban Kosovo, as a woman’s voice repeats: “She was so happy that they married her here, in this house”. A heavy cloud of war looms in the near distance. Norika Sefa, the winner of the Special Jury Award for Looking for Venera (IFFR 2021), returns to the festival with this mysterious and mesmerising tale about lives that are no longer there.
