Anila and Dejvi - 2000
I was born January 29th 1995 in Berat, Albania. Three years later in '98, Mom fled the country with me. A year before that, the civil war broke out in Albania and the whole country went belly up. Her sister fled to the United States, her brother and two children went to Turkey and we went to Belgium. I've recently heard Mom tell us the whole story in vivid colors and I got a big hunch that I was going to make that story my first feature film one day.
When we came to Belgium, we stayed in a one room apartment that had a mattress, a little dresser, and a three wheeler bike. Mom always used to say that Dad fell in love with me first. Great move though, dad! After mom and I moved in together in dad's house, we started being a family. We welcomed my little sister Eva in 2000.
