Every day, adolescents around the world are in the process of discovering who they are. This growth occurs through experiments such as love, family, responsibility, emotion, or a mixture of these. Even in the deep villages in northern Macedonia, where modern relations intersect with traditional lifestyles, this self -discovery journey continues, and a side is rarely highlighted in Western media. “DJ Ahmet” is a wonderful comedy that uses music and relationships to show Ahmed’s growth from a boy to a man.
Ahmed (Arif Jacob) is a 15 -year -old boy who withdrew from his school by his father (Axel Mohamed) to help the shepherd on the sheep while his 4 -year -old brother Naim (Agush Agushv) takes to the magician to treat his ability. With the family still reeling from the death of their last mother, Ahmed falls in love with music, which his brother loves equally, but his father hates. Aya (Dura Kan Zlatanova) notes in the village, she recently returned from Germany to marry a person you do not know. Ahmed and Aya Bond for their common love for modern things such as Tijook, music and dance, and they gradually shine more and more in love with each other. When Aya’s marriage goes on, Ahmed does everything in his power to distract her from escaping.
Technology is an essential element in this movie, generating many laughter. The oldest generation often fights technology and rely repeatedly on Ahmed for help. For example, the local imam asks AHMET to change the word pass on Facebook, manage the new PA system for the mosque and prepare the computer, which becomes one of the frequent and fun film collections. Although technology has become completely integrated into the lives of people in the wealthiest western countries, the rural areas in the younger countries gradually adopt these technologies in their daily routine. The contradiction between traditional and modern lifestyles creates fun scenes, such as listening to AHMET to EDM music while grazing sheep or brothers connecting Sony loudspeakers with their old tractor. Director Georgi M. Unkovski uses this approximation effectively to generate humor and joy during these simple moments.
Ahmed shares an indelible link with his younger brother Naim. Regardless of the difficulties you press, Ahmed always puts a sleep first – insists on his accompanying to the magician, determined to defend the silence of his brother even if no one listens. He takes Nayem with him to the farm, and even in the moments he spends with a verse, Nayem is never far. Their relationship seems to be almost symbiotic: two brothers tending to each other for strength, adhering to the only constant that they left after the death of their mother.
The film stumbles a little at the speed near the end of its second work, with moments that may have benefited from the most strict writing to maintain the audience’s participation. However, the third verb is great, and it includes a wedding night scene that provides one of the best laughter in the year, along with some of the incredibly delicate moments between the father and the son, as well as between the two brothers. There are aspects of the next story that you may feel very familiar, and the narration walks along a good path. But the culture that Unkovski brings to the story is what distinguishes it from dozens of similar tales that it narrated every year.
The entire main gun offers great offers for the first time. Driving a coming story of the wide emotional range and a leading voice, and the attributes of Jacob clearly. It has a distinctive look that you almost think it is a miracle that was not in a movie before, one of those faces that requires to be on the silver screen. Agushev stands out as one of the best children’s performance in the year, and it is free and unforgettable even though there are almost no lines. Zlatanova image looks very recent. It discusses with Ahmed the contradictions between Germany and its village, as it behaves like a whirlwind in the life of Ahmed and his stopping from the future the text that his father put to him.
“DJ Ahmet” raises an important question about the role of music in helping people to move from sadness, as well as how important arts of society are. Ahmed’s father looks at the speakers as distraction from the daily life of his son, considering them something that can be sold to cover the loss of sheep. On the other hand, Ahmed believes that the speakers are an invaluable relationship with his mother, who loved music. For AHMET, music works as a treatment that needs to progress in life, which is the main point of the dispute between him and his father.
The Northern Macedonian countryside, such as the painting, is revealing the circulating green pastures and thick forest lands that frame the story in the landscape simultaneously, rugged and beautiful. Houses and farms carry amazing originality, as Ahmed’s home radiated the feeling of the place where he lives completely. From the tumultuous market stalls to the strange yellow car, their father is driving, all the details feel rooted in the village itself, as if the camera wandered at just a fifteen -year -old boy moving on a normal day in his world.
In general, “DJ Ahmet” appears as a quiet jewel – a vibrant heart journey that follows a boy in the northern Macedonian village as he jumps quickly and sometimes painful from adolescence to masculinity. With this wonderful first appearance, Georgie M does not pick up.
