"We're not doing this just for you, but for ourselves. For all of us." Zeitgeist Films has released an official US trailer for an acclaimed, award-winning indie drama titled Hive, marking the feature directorial debut of talented Kosovan filmmaker Blerta Basholli. This won three awards at the 2021 Sundance Film Festival earlier this year - the Audience Award, Directing Award, and Grand Jury Prize in the World Cinema section. Fahrije's husband has been missing since the war in Kosovo. She sets up her own small business to provide for her kids, but as she fights against a patriarchal society that does not support her, she soon faces a crucial decision. Against the backdrop of Eastern Europe's civil unrest and its lingering misogyny, Fahrije and the women of her village join in a struggle to find hope in the face of an uncertain future. Hive is described as "a pithy, devastating portrait of loss and our uphill journeys to freedom." The film features Yllka Gashi as Fahrije. This would play as a superb double feature with the doc film Honeyland as well. Check it out below. ›››
