Plot
Blerim, an employee of a TV station, takes on a highly unusual side gig one that immerses him in a world of mental illness, paranoia, and blurred reality. Blerims colleague introduces him to Drin, an unemployed young man who claims to be mentally ill despite his neurologists belief that his symptoms are merely psychosomatic. Drin, convinced that he must leave his home country in order to become well, commissions Blerim to film a video of him discussing his unusual neurological condition in the hopes that the clip will convince a foreign nation to grant him asylum. Blerim, tasked with shooting the video and somehow convincing his boss to broadcast it on the TV station, finds himself obsessed with the project to the detriment of his professional and personal relationships.[http://sbunker.net/teh/90611/realizmi-dhe-drama-bashkohen-ne-takim-ne-ajer/ Realizmi dhe Drama Bashkohen n "Takim n Ajr"] sbunker.net.
