CGiii Comment

Stana Cerovic was born in a tiny village in Montenegro to a family without boys. She sacrificed marriage and children to dress and live like a man and is served domestically by her sister, Borika. Stana wishes to be remembered in the family graveyard as her father's son. Interviews with five young women in Belgrade, Serbia reveal many different ideas about sacrifice, personal choice, identity, joy and remembrance. One of the interviewees, the famous T.K.V. graffiti artist, makes a special tag for Stana on the streets of Belgrade. This may be the only memory of Stana as she wishes to be remembered, as we learn a secret in Stana's home village she hoped no one would find out.
