About When the Masks are Taken Off
A satirical anthology film transforms popular humorous and sarcastic stage songs into standalone vignettes that lampoon the absurdities of bureaucratic officials and the liberal attitudes that were systematically targeted and suppressed in that era.
Directed by Dhimitër Anagnosti, When the Masks are Taken Off leans on a strong ensemble — Skënder Sallaku, Skënder Plasari, Dario Llukaçi — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1975.
