In the raw, emotionally charged drama VENERA, director Korab Jashari crafts an intimate and haunting portrait of three young women navigating the treacherous landscapes of desire, trauma, and survival in a contemporary Albanian setting. The film centers on the intertwined lives of May-Linda Kosumovic, Erza Sejdiu, and Liza Curri, each grappling with the weight of societal expectations and their own unspoken secrets. Their world is one of quiet desperation and fleeting moments of tenderness, where the pursuit of love and freedom often collides with harsh realities. As they confront the ghosts of their pasts and the limitations imposed upon them, a central conflict emerges, testing the bonds of their friendship and forcing each woman to make impossible choices. With a runtime of just over 80 minutes, VENERA is a visceral and unflinching look at agency, vulnerability, and the resilience of the human spirit, anchored by powerful performances from its ensemble cast, including Orgeta Brahimi.
