With portraits of the dictator that capture the eye as much as the breath, a woman named Aura takes center stage. Sitting in an armchair, she connects her life and paranoia, Albania's past and present, the communist period with the conspiratorial present.
Written and directed by Enxhi Risto, the film "Kolltuku" reveals a society of insecurities, where generations live between nostalgia for the past where they were oppressed and unfree, with the fear and isolation of the present where paranoia has taken shape through new methods.
A man, a woman, a daughter and a society that did not learn to do justice come together in a film produced by "Erafilm" in cooperation between Albania and Romania. The director shows his work with Zamira Kita, Romir Zalla, Niko Kanxheri and Naun Shund in his latest film, where he played a sick person.
The film, which premiered in Tirana, follows the fate of an armchair, which symbolizes in layers of readings the ways in which we are connected to systems, places and fears through invisible threads, which command us regardless of what they hide inside, and will continue to do so until we violently destroy them to free ourselves from them.
