Sundance World Dramatic Competition Selection ‘DJ Ahmet’ Boarded For Sales By Films Boutique


The film is the first feature by North Macedonian writer-director Georgi M. Unkovski.

The Turkish and Macedonian-language film follows Ahmet, a 15-year-old boy from a remote Yuruk village in North Macedonia, who finds refuge in music while navigating his father’s expectations, a conservative community, and his first experience with love — a girl already promised to someone else. Co-producers are Michal Kracmer, Veronika Kuhrova, Igor Kecman, Jelena Mitrovic, Katarina Prpic, Vladimir Anastasov and Angela Nestorovska. Both incredibly moving and funny, topped by the first-class cinematography of Naum Doksevski ( Housekeeping for Beginners), this gem of a film will give the audience a unique opportunity to discover the rich cultural and visual landscape of North Macedonia.”
