Fatbardha Çani | Actors of the amateur movement!

Fatbardha Çani
Actress of the amateur movement and TV program announcer of the time.

Amateur actress, but who managed to land her only role in the cinematography, a protagonist even, in the short film “Fitter Girl / Montatorja” – 1970, and nowhere else after that, even though many actors who came from the amateur movement reach a high level of interpretation becoming professional.

The charming girl, originally from Cameria, was a worker at the time at the “Stalin” Textile Factory. The director Muharrem Fejzo had to find a girl to play the role of Hana, according to the scenario of a girl who dreams of becoming an assembler (fitter girl) and falls in love with a guy at the construction site. It will be the well-known painter of the film Shyqyri Sako who will discover Fatbardha and introduce her to the staff assigned to the film “Montatorja”.

This was Mrs. Cani’s approach to Albanian cinematography. Although our country had a considerable number of actors who graduated from ILA, not all of them were lucky enough to have leading roles, regardless of their acting skills, while Fatbardha (as her name bears), after the film “Montatorja” was not but she remained in the history of the Albanian film as the special case, perhaps the rarest, of an amateur actress, in the role of the protagonist!

Later, she worked in TVSH as an announcer and also presented the monthly music show, according to the requests of the viewers.
