AI Summary
Hana Jusić’s second feature, *God Will Not Help*, is Croatia’s official Oscar entry for best international feature. The 1910 period drama follows Teresa, a Chilean widow played by Manuela Martelli, who arrives in a rural Croatian sheep‑herding community claiming to be the widow of a local who emigrated years earlier. Unable to speak the language, Teresa bonds with Milena, another outsider, while her presence unsettles the men of the insular, patriarchal society. Jusić blends gothic drama, Wuthering Heights‑style themes, and hints of genre horror to portray Teresa’s disruptive influence.
