Synopsis

Entering a playful search, Great Men tries to find images of women in the cityscape of Prizren. In parallel, the omnipresence of men and the uniformity of the aesthetics of their heroic representation is rendered visible by collecting images of the statues of war heroes that are lining the streets. A multilayered portrait of the city slowly emerges through the voices of local citizens as untold or forgotten histories are being told – a more complex national tale unfolds and plans for the feminist city are set in motion.
