God Exists, Her Name Is Petrunya

In “God Exists, Her Name Is Petrunya,” directed by Teona Strugar Mitevska, a woman named Petrunya disrupts a traditional religious ceremony in a small Macedonian town by retrieving a cross thrown into the river, a ritual typically reserved for men. Her unexpected act challenges societal norms and sparks a media frenzy, leading to a broader commentary on gender roles and the struggle for equality.
