A CALL GIRL (2009)
A film by Damjan Kozole
In this acclaimed, award-winning film set amidst the perilous world
of prostitution, a young student who’s unable to make ends meet
joins the world’s oldest profession, unaware of the dangers that lie
ahead.
23-year-old student Aleksandra (Nina Ivanišin) embraces the
excitement and anonymity of big city living when she becomes a
call girl, planning to take advantage of everything the city has to
offer. But her precarious double life is shattered when one of her
clients dies. Pursued by both criminals and the police, Aleksandra
must confront her deepest fears with only her hometown to turn to.
Boasting an unforgettable central performance from newcomer Nina
Ivanišin, A CALL GIRL (SLOVENKA) is a riveting look at one
woman’s dual existence that combines a powerful emotional
honesty with a forceful contemporary relevance.
