Wingless
A man who believes his days are numbered is saddled with more bad luck than he expects in this metaphorical comedy-drama from director Ivo Trajkov. Ever since he was a boy, Josef (David Svehlik) was been convinced he's destined to die at the age of 29, so he's understandably nervous as his 28th year is drawing to a close. Fate doesn't appear to be on Josef's side when his wife asks for a divorce and moves out, taking their young son with her, and he's next fired from his job fixing scales. Josef is in an unsettled state of mind, and his new friendship with free-spirited Gabriel (Karel Zima) doesn't help much, but Josef begins to wonder if luck is on his side again when he meets a lovely and warmed hearted woman, Olivia (Verica Nedeska).

🎬 MovieFinder's Take
The film constructs a poignant, metaphorical tale about a man measuring out his life in fear. It relies on David Svehlik's performance to explore the weight of superstition versus the lightness of chance, using the protagonist's profession as a clever narrative device.
What lingers after the credits is a gentle, bittersweet humor and a quiet reflection on the scales we use to weigh our own destinies. — MovieFinder Editorial
Director: Ivo Trajkov
