Synopsis:
Filmed over fifteen years, I Saw a ‘Suno’ is an intimate chronicle of Nasmi’s journey from childhood to adulthood—torn between worlds.
Nasmi, the youngest of three brothers, was born in Germany to Roma parents who fled the war in Kosovo. He knew only safety—until the day police came to repatriate him, his brother, and their mother. Sent to a ruined refugee camp in post-war northern Kosovo, they found no power, no clean drinking water—only the bitter cold of a country Nasmi had never known. Twelve people shared a single room. What followed was not just exile, but a loss of identity, of future, of home.
Through vérité footage and quiet reflections, the film bears witness to the invisible cost of forced repatriation and the strength it takes to survive it. A story of separation and return, of love across borders, told by a Romani director, I Saw a ‘Suno’ is a testament to the resilience of a young boy—and to the unbreakable bonds of family.
