"What would they have done if God were female?"
In Shtip, a small town in Macedonia, every January the local priest throws a wooden cross into the river and hundreds of men dive after it. Good fortune and prosperity are guaranteed to the man who retrieves it. This time, Petrunya dives into the water and manages to grab the cross before the others. Her competitors are furious, but Petrunya holds her ground. She won her cross and will not give it up.
