Motivation: This impressive first feature finds depth and beauty in lives too often left unseen. Through rich atmosphere, lingering observation and a seductive sense of mystery, the director crafts a quietly universal portrait of a generation caught between economic hardship, fractured human connections, and the search for belonging and dignity. It’s a summer film with a dark twist, one that marks the arrival of an exciting new voice in European cinema.
