How has Albanian money traveled through the decades, from coins hidden under the mattress to modern transactions with a click on the phone?

This unique journey through time is at the center of the newest documentary, which explores the evolution of personal finances and the impact of technology on the daily lives of Albanians.

The documentary brings to the screen authentic stories and rare footage from the past, with the help of the Central Film Archive, commemorating the journey of Albanians from simple family economies to 21st century financial technologies.

This documentary reflects the challenges and successes of the Albanian people in the face of economic changes, and also includes inspiring moments, such as the presentation for the first time in 2015 of a new vision for money from Estonia, via iute.

The video also features some of the most inspiring Albanian figures of the moment, such as our Eurovision representatives Shkodra Elektronike, champion Luiza Gega and the most beloved voice of the fans Alban Xhihani.

This project, realized on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of Iute in Albania, invites viewers to reflect on the journey from simple savings in wallets to digital finances that are transforming the Albanian economy today.

The documentary will be shown at Cineplexx, offering a cinematic experience for all those who want to discover how technology is changing the way we manage money.
