In Stip, a small town in Macedonia, every January the local priest throws a wooden cross into the river and hundreds of men dive after it. Good fortune and prosperity are guaranteed to the man who retrieves it. This time, Petrunya dives into the water on a whim and manages to grab the cross before the others. Her competitors are furious – how dare a woman take part in their ritual? All hell breaks loose, but Petrunya holds her ground. She won her cross and will not give it up.

Hrvaško: „Preciznim redateljskim rukopisom uspjela je gledatelja u potpunosti uvući u filmska zbivanja, karaktere, događaje i društvene okolnosti.“
Prize of the Ecumenical Jury.
The jury of the “Guild Film Prize” is composed of three members who run cinemas and are members of the AG Kino - Gilde e.V. (association of German Art House Cinemas). The jury awards its prize to a film screened in the Competition.
Drzen in strasten film z imenitno Zorico Nuševo kot Petrunijo odpira vprašanje ženske v makedonski družbi in tradicionalnih okoljih. Spremljamo preobrazbo Petrunije, ki s svojo spontano akcijo razbija cerkvene in družbene tradicije in se spreminja v glasno zagovornico pravic žensk. Mojstrski film Teone Strugar Mitevske, ki dokazuje, da lahko s filmsko umetnostjo še vedno vplivamo na spremembe v družbi in spreminjamo svet.
Junakinjo močni notranji občutek za pravičnost žene v tihi, a vztrajni upor proti navidez svetim pravilom in nepremakljivim strukturam moči. Njen boj je danes več kot aktualen. Izvrstno igro glavne protagonistke in močno zgodbo s ščepcem satiričnega humorja podpira ikonična in hkrati ironična vizualna podoba.
