About the Film
On The Way continues Karahoda’s exploration of life’s small triumphs amid systemic struggles. Following his acclaimed 2021 short Pa Vend (Displaced), this 15-minute film brings us a semi-autobiographical tale of a father and son navigating a bureaucratic maze on their way to the airport. They’re picking up a gift sent from abroad by the boy’s godfather, but the journey is about more than just retrieving a parcel. It’s about finding hope and connection in a society that often feels like it’s holding them back.
What to Expect
Karahoda infuses On The Way with his trademark sly humor and keen observations. Despite the backdrop of political and social challenges in Kosovo, the film shines a light on the father-son duo’s shared optimism and their determination to find joy amidst the hurdles.
