Shame and Money
A couple in their 40s live with their extended family in rural Kosovo making a modest living on their farm. Following a familial dispute, their livelihood is lost. They are forced to move to Pristina where the pressure to provide for their family weighs heavily on the parents as they do their best to find work and a place to stay. A journey into a hyper-capitalist society begins.

«...retains a humanity that should help it resonate with audiences who have supported the films of Ken Loach and Stephane Brize.» Screendaily
«In his second feature to compete at Sundance, Visar Morina takes a razor-sharp blade to pierce the veil of our ultra-transactional late-stage capitalist present.» Cineuropa
«There isn’t a single false beat in director German–Kosovan filmmaker Visar Morina’s anti-capitalist venture Shame and Money. Morina’s film is a confident, smart, and tightly calibrated work.» Roger Ebert.com
