Albanian Stories features Adrian Paci's three year old daughter recounting a series of improvised fairytales in which folkloric characters, such as a cow, cat and rooster, commingle with surprising references to "soldiers" and "international forces". In this half fictional, half real-world imparted by an innocent narrator, the fairytale becomes a vehicle for exposing both the particularity and the universality of conflict, as well as the way in which our understanding of events is colored by the circumstances surrounding their reception.
