Anna and Fillip as usual spend their holidays in their summer house at the lake. She’s a recognised artist and photographer preparing her new exhibition. When she disappears in her darkroom for long hours, her husband works on his psychology book. In the evenings they drink wine while resting on the terrace and enjoying the sunset. Their everyday routine is disrupted by an unexpected arrival of their old friends’ daughter. The last time 18-year-old Maya had been here was when she was a child. Now she’s a beautiful and intelligent teenager rebelling against the rules and discovering her sexuality. Her visit will release emotions which Anna and Fillip have been hiding from each other for years. This feature debut by a Macedonian screenwriter and director Eleonora Veninova is a surprising story of an atypical triangle bursting with sexual tension. Anna played by Kamka Tocinovski is joined by Blagoj Veselinov as Fillip and Sara Klimoska as Maya, both of whom are recipients of the European Shooting Star award at Berlin International Film Festival. “Things Unsaid” premiered in November 2022 in the International Competition category at Cairo International Film Festival.
