The first trailer forHousekeeping for Beginnershas been released, giving audiences their first look at the upcoming drama about a young woman dealing with parenthood when she least expected it. Dita (Anamaria Marinca) never had any interest in raising children, but when she starts dating a woman who already is a mother, she has no option but to adapt to her new lifestyle. The drama directed byGoran Stolevskiwill take its protagonist through a complicated emotional journey, with her having to face responsibilities she wasn’t prepared for while trying to build a new life with her partner.
Housekeeping for Beginnershas been selected as North Macedonia’s international Oscar submission, with the film hoping to reach next year’sAcademy Awardsceremony. The story about Dita trying to get along with her girlfriend’s daughters will also starAlina Serban,Samson Selim, andVladimir Tintor, with the drama being distributed byFocus Featuresin the United States. The movie will also serve as a reunion for Stolevski and Macedonia, who previously worked together on a horror dark fantasy that crawled its way to movie theaters around the world last year, as a project that became Australia’s official selection for the Academy Awards.
InYou Won’t Be Alone, Marinca portrayed Old Maid Maria, a sorcerer who used a valuable opportunity to turn someone else into a witch, with a spell that can only be used once in a lifetime. More than a year after that story became available to stream onPeacock, the filmmaker and the actress are back inHousekeeping for Beginners. The drama will be very different from what Stolevski and Marinca have delivered before, with Dita struggling to leave her comfort zone in favor of her relationship. Hopefully, the protagonist can find a way of making the bond with her partner work besides her reluctance to spend time with the woman’s children.
