Starring a young and beautiful Raimonda Bulku and Ndriçim Xhepa still with some hair on his head, this film tells the story of 3 students, 2 men named Arsen and Agron, and 1 girl, Jona, the daughter of a newly elected politician. One of the men appears to be a good friend of the girl and is secretly in love with her, the other one wants to take advantage of her father's jurisdiction by pretending to be in love with her.

The story is very weak and leaves a lot to be desired. It has almost no progression, not exciting or thrilling in anyway, no twists, no surprises, mysteries or whatsoever, and its too predictable. The characters are undeveloped, we don't really know and care much about them through the movie, and this leaves their actions unexplained. An example is the love story that has no basis at all, they just agree to be together one day and even that moment isn't showed properly in the movie. Same as the story, the script is very weak, however the acting of the main actors isn't bad.

Visually it suffers a lot, probably the weakest point of the movie. It might just be the source were i watched it but I'm pretty sure its the movie itself that looks like it was filmed with a potato somewhere in the 50's. Both audio & video editing are terrible, really terrible. The flashback sequences are horrible, some scenes were interrupted all of a sudden while the story or the music was going toward the climax. An example that i remember is the scene were the girl goes out of the bus crying and then all of a sudden the scene changes, the music stops, and next we see a postman on his bicycle. Just like changing channels on TV.

Without going any further, its a dry and uninteresting movie, its only 1 hour and it feels like 3. This is nowhere close compared to movies with today's standards or movies made in the 80's but even compared with most of the Hollywood films made in the 30's, this would come out defeated.
