The Kosovar feature film "EXIT", by Lendita Zeqiraj and Blerta Zeqiri,
will be screened in New York on November 16, 2005 at the Village East
Cinemas at 10PM.

The screening is organized as a part of the New York Int. Independent
Film and Video Festival (NYIIFV Festival). It comes after the film had
its world premiere in the Los Angeles event of the NYIIFV Festival in
September, where it won the Best Cinematography Award. This award
constitutes the fourth international film award that the two
directors-writers won.

The film is a breathtaking story about 3 Kosovar-Albanian students
hiding in a flat during the war in Kosova. Lack of food and
information about what's happening on the outside makes the situation
unbearable. The three friends are closer than ever to each other, but
yet quite far in trying to solve the unsolvable – find a way out.

"EXIT" depicts with immaculate accuracy the situation hundreds of
thousands of Albanians were in during the 1999 NATO-bombing: stranded
in their homes in fear of the Serb-Police and -Army ethnic-cleansing
campaign.
