Përrallë nga e kaluara

Tale From the Past

Përrallë nga e kaluara spielt in den 1930er Jahren und handelt von einer armen Dorffamilie, die eine Heirat zwischen ihrer erwachsenen Tochter Marigo und dem minderjährigen Sohn eines reichen Paares arrangiert. Marigo ist in einen Mann verliebt, aber die Tradition zwingt sie, die absurde Zeremonie mitzumachen und den Buben zu heiraten. Für die Kommunisten war es ein positiver Aspekt, die rückständigen Sitten im Albanien vor Enver Hoxha zu zeigen. Darüber hinaus findet Dhimitër Anagnosti in dem Material aus dem Material reichlich surrealen Humor, indem Marigo ihre neuen Schwiegereltern gegeneinander austrickst, um die Ehe zu zerstören. (Thomas Logoreci)

Tale from the Past is set in the 1930s and tells the story of a poor village family who arrange a marriage between their grown daughter, Marigo, and the underage son of a wealthy couple. Marigo is in love with a man, but the tradition of arranged marriages forces her to follow through with the absurd ceremony and wed the boy. For the communists, showing the backward customs of Albania before Enver Hoxha was a positive aspect of the film. But beyond that Dhimitër Anagnosti found a wealth of surreal humor in the material, as Marigo wickedly plays her new in-laws against each other in order to break up her unwanted marriage. (Thomas Logoreci)
