Afraid of Beauty

Storyline

At an evening acting school, while working on texts from Rumena Bužarovska’s collection My Husband, mature women share personal confessions. Through intimate dialogues, rich in humor, they deconstruct the legacy of war, patriarchy, and Hollywood romantic narratives. At the center is forty-year-old Andrea, who, nine years after her divorce, enters a new relationship, only for her fear of beauty to once again pull her back into old traumas.
