Nëntor i ftohtë

Kosovo, early 1990s. The heating in Fadili’s apartment is out again. There has been widespread concern throughout Prishtina since the Yugoslav government no longer recognises the autonomy status of the region. Regardless, the Albanian archivist Fadili has kept his optimism and cares lovingly for his family. When one day a Serb replaces his boss and Fadili’s Albanian colleagues quit their jobs as an act of protest, he is faced with an impossible decision. With an authentic 1990s look, director Ismet Sijarina tells of the dilemma faced by a man who wants to protect his family at all costs, but does not want to betray his political convictions.
