American director Joshua Marston broke out in 2004 with his jolting, Oscar-nominated Maria FuII of Grace, about a young Colombian woman working as a drug muIe. ln his remarkable folIow-up, The Forgiveness of BIood, he turns his camera on another corner of the world: contemporary northern Albania, a pIace still troubIed by the ancient custom of interfamiliaI blood feuds. From this reality, Marston scuIpts a fictionaI narrative about a teenage brother and sister physicaIIy and emotionaIIy trapped in a cycle of vioIence, a resuIt of their father's entanglement with a rivaI clan over a piece of land. The Forgiveness of BIood is a tense and perceptive depiction of a pIace where tradition and progress have an uneasy coexistence, as weIl as a dynamic coming-of-age drama. |
