goEast Film Festival

A revolution rarely starts loud. It begins quietly, deep inside a human being, with the decision to take a different path. In a whirlwind of traditions and expectations, the film consistently tells its story through a dense, almost documentary-like cinematography, from the perspective of a young girl, and negotiates the question of fate and the possibilities that are actually available to her. The result is a vivid picture, condensed into 15 minutes: a moment of self-presentation, of questioning the roles that the actresses consciously reproduce, adopt, or reject. For his compelling film KISMET, we congratulate Žiga Virc on winning the RheinMain Short Film Award.
