Set to make its world premiere at Sundance Movie Pageant later this month, Blerta Basholli’s “Hive” tells the story of a girl who rebels towards her patriarchal society to offer for her household and group. The drama is about in a tight-knit city in Kosovo the place households await information concerning the destiny of husbands, fathers, and sons who went to battle in the struggle.

“I need to begin a new enterprise with all the ladies of Krusha,” Fahrije (Yllka Gashi) declares in a new trailer for the movie. Regardless of being informed she’s “daydreaming a lot” and shamed for tarnishing her household’s repute, Fahrije persists. She acquires her driver’s license and travels to town the place she sells selfmade ajvar in a native grocery retailer. “We’ve been making ajvar all our lives,” she says of the native girls. “We all know learn how to make it greatest.”

“Hive” is predicated on a true story and marks Basholli’s characteristic debut. Take a look at the trailer beneath. Indiewire premiered the spot.
