THE GUARDIAN

THE GUARDIAN is the story of mountain man, Fatos Lajci, and his struggle to save the forests of the Rugova Mountains from deforestation and environmental destruction. As we learn the stories of his youth, growing up in these mountains with his brother, we begin to understand the history behind Fatos’ frustration with post-war politics, his sense of refuge in the mountains, and ultimately his spiritual connection and dedication to preserving them.
