In the murky streets of postwar Pristina 2009, children sell cigarettes and whisper tales of loss and hope. Now ten years later as young adults, they still fight to survive at the bottom of a society that continues to struggle with the trauma of war. For these young people, the dream of emigrating to another country or religion alone offers purpose and escape. A collective portrait of a condition, a state of being set in a world now marked by a (pandemic and) new devastating war in Europe.
