It Was Just An Accident یک تصادف ساده
DJ Ahmet
‘A beautifully written and executed work … powerful, gripping and generous.’ LITTLE WHITE LIES
‘An unforgettable ensemble, laugh-out-loud comedy and heartsore drama.’ VARIETY With echoes of Footloose but set in a remote North Macedonian village, this is a charming, funny and uplifting, coming-of-age tale of a boy who finds refuge in dance music and first love. A Sundance Audience Award-winner DJ Ahmet radiates with an infectious energy, propelled by the performances of its mostly non-professional cast. Thoughtfully showcasing the contrast between the expectations of tradition and the temptations of modernity – not least through its memorable soundtrack – this authentic, jubilant film is about finding your place in the world.
