A Story From Kosovo in the ‘90s After Which it is Impossible to Remain...

The heartbreaking film Babai (Father in Albanian), made by the Kosovar immigrant to Germany Visar Morina, became a real discovery in European cinematography this year. Morina’s debut feature has already won him the best director award and the Europa Cinemas label’s award at the international film festival in Karlovy Vary and the One Future Prize and Young German Cinema Award at the Munich Film Festival. The storyline is this: the 10-year-old boy Nori (Val Maloku), after his mother left the family, follows his milquetoast father Gezim (Astrit Kabashi) everywhere. Nori cannot bear to be parted from his father. So the father’s decision to try to find a better place to live and to move to Germany is a pure tragedy for the kid. He refuses to stay with the rather peculiar relatives who take him in and does everything he can and more to break the system and become reunited with his parent. Youth Time had an opportunity to meet up with Visar Morina in Karlovy Vary and to talk about the background of the story.
