Albania and neighboring Yugoslavia officially broke ties in 1948. But in 1971, the Hoxha regime was honored to welcome the ethnic Albanian actor Bekim Fehmiu (1936-2010), at the time an international star in Yugoslav theater and film. Before his trip to Albania, Fehmiu had appeared in the popular Italian television smash The Odyssey (1968) and the Cannes-winning I Even Met Happy Gypsies (1967). Dokufest will also feature a photo exhibit of recently-discovered still images taken during Bekim Fehmiu’s Albanian visit.

Bekim Fehmiu was the first Eastern European actor to star in Hollywood during the Cold War, and he was one of the internationally best-known actors.

暂无剧情简介

King Carlos II of Spain (r. 1665-1700) once sent his brother Luis to lead a military expedition into Albania and conquer that land for the Spaniards. Since Albania was a part of the dowry of Luis' wife, it seemed like a reasonable idea at the time. While that expedition and its final battle is the subject of this historical film, the scale involved can hardly do justice to the concept. The protagonists talk incessantly, and by the time they get down to the final grand battle, it turns out to be a skirmish between several dozen men.

The film tells the story through the eyes of a young boy who has a unique experience of Jesus' presence during his first Holy Communion. The power of prayer, the issue of alcoholism in a Christian family, the mother's love and determination to save the family, and the father's conversion provide the basis for a powerful story. Most of the footage was shot in a small forgotten village in the middle of the beautiful Slovak mountains in the village of Velké Borové.

Santiago meets Paulina at a party. Love is a cycle and both will fall into it a second, third, or perhaps fifth time. Their relationship could last forever or, more likely, they will only become one more visit in each other's lives.
