A documentary filmmaker and his girlfriend take into their home Bikini Moon, a charismatic but troubled Iraq war vet who finds herself homeless on the streets of Brooklyn, (repeatedly) turning the lives of the couple upside down. A powerful stampede of images and multiple narrative somersaults, the film explores the relationship between fiction and reality, between modern surveillance and the need for intimacy. The viewer readily embarks on a journey from cinéma vérité to realistic drama, all the way to fantasy and back to the real world, where real people indulge in daydreaming. The latest work by the Macedonian filmmaker is an American indie film through and through.

A documentary film about a free-spirited evangelical priest Jana, who is facing a great life dilemma – to leave or continue pursuing the priesthood, all whilst dealing with many other challenges: from childhood wounds to solving complex family relationships. In the town, she is seen as God’s representative on earth, but at the end of the day, she’s only human too.
