Through the eyes of women directors, we explore Albania's isolated past, and a rich filmmaking heritage struggling to survive. We meet young and energetic Rain, who chooses to return to Albania after a few years abroad, while most of her generation aims to leave. And Iris, head of the National Archives trying to preserve the rich catalogue of Albanian films that are at risk of deterioration.
