Forbidden Fruit (2000)

This was Sasa’s first short film, made on a shoestring budget using VHS tapes and edited by transferring footage from one video to another. During this time, his mother received 19 kg of oranges from the Red Cross. As Sasa was coming out, he decided to create a film as a metaphor for his own experience, blending his newfound love for filmmaking with his personal journey.

A girl is visited by an orange. She falls in love with it, sparking jealousy in her best friend.
