Emiliano Baglio

The underlying theme of Excursion is sex. Iman (Asja Zara Lagumdžija), an androgynous physique and colored hair, is a girl like many others who one day at school, during spin the bottle, tells her classmates that she had had sex with a boy much older than her.

Iman goes through a real ordeal in which an innocent lie leads her, apparently Read all
