Phantom Youth
6.2
Zoe and Volta, childhood friends from a remote village, move to Pristina to pursue their studies. Full of dreams and youthful idealism, they befriend a group of rebellious, anti-establishment activists determined to make their voices heard. Amidst the social and political tensions of Kosovo in 2007, on the brink of independence, they navigate a country in turmoil—one searching for its identity while its youth remain overlooked.
