DJ AHMET (+ short film 'With Love, Lottie')

In a remote, tradition-bound village, teenage Ahmet dreams of more than a life tending sheep. Against grieving his mother’s death, being silenced by his father, and protecting his mute younger brother, Ahmet finds hope in unexpected place - a secret rave – and in a blooming love with the beautiful Aya. Director Georgi M. Unkovski’s debut captures the tension between tradition and individuality with heart and authenticity, using a largely non-professional cast to tell a poignant, liberating coming-of-age story about love, identity, and art’s liberating power.
