Synopsis

Every 19th January during Epiphany, a unique ceremony takes place all around Macedonia: the high priest throws a cross into the local waters while hundreds of men charge for it. The one who finds it is blessed for the whole next year and becomes kind of a local hero.

MUBI's take

Visually audacious and bitterly funny, Teona Strugar Mitevska’s award-winning satire derides the rampant misogyny that runs deep in Macedonian society. Navigating a bewildering maze of societal and familial obstacles, this sardonic character study reaffirms the power of female resilience.
