Dobrodošli na 28. Sarajevo Film Festival / Welcome to the 28th Sarajevo Film Festival

28. izdanje Sarajevo Film Festivala pokazuje vjernost i dosljednost konceptu festivala – prikazati najkvalitetnije filmove i serije publici i biti platforma za razvoj regionalne kinematografije. Festivalski program uključuje preko 220 filmova iz cijelog svijeta, od čega 51 premijerno prikazani film iz naše regije u četiri takmičarske selekcije čine Sarajevo Film Festival najvećom prezentacijom kinematografija Jugoistočne Evrope na svijetu.

Šta novo donosi predstojeće izdanje Sarajevo Film Festivala, pitanje je s kojim se susrećemo svake godine. U posljednje dvije godine tema promjena bila je svakodnevna, globalno. Promijenio se i način prikazivanja filmova, publika se prilagođavala i prihvatala nove mogućnosti. I tada, usljed stalnih promjena, jasnija nego ikad bila je želja publike za zajedničkim gledanjem filma. Gledanje filma u festivalskoj atmosferi, u kinima, kako u zatvorenim tako i u Open Air – Ljetnim kinima, u posebnoj atmosferi Sarajeva ljeti, nezamjenjiv je doživljaj. Sretni smo što smo ove godine ponovo zajedno na festivalskim lokacijama, bez ograničenja, s gostima iz cijelog svijeta. Festival otvara dobitnik Zlatne palme TROUGAO TUGE Rubena Östlunda, a zatvara svjetska premijera domaćeg filma PRAZNIK RADA Pjera Žalice. Javna predavanja u programu Masterclass održat će Paul Schrader, Sergei Loznitsa, Ruben Östlund, Ari Folman, Jasmila Žbanić i Michael Winterbottom. CineLink dani filmske industrije, Talents Sarajevo i novouspostavljene nagrade Srce Sarajeva za televizijske serije okupljaju preko hiljadu filmskih i televizijskih profesionalaca, uz bogat konferencijski program i promociju najperspektivnijih filmskih i serijskih projekata iz regiona. Pretpremijere i premijere regionalnih i domaćih filmova i serija i brojni svjetski naslovi koje će publika imati priliku pogledati u kinima širom Sarajeva, ali i u Mostaru, te u cijeloj BiH putem VoD platforme festivala, sigurni smo da će i ovogodišnji Sarajevo Film Festival učiniti jedinstvenim praznikom filmske i televizijske umjetnosti za cijeli grad, državu i region.

Posebno smo sretni što ove godine imamo priliku pokazati veliki broj bosanskohercegovačkih filmova i serija, među kojima su i novi projekti nekih od najprepoznatljivijih bh. autora. Pored filma zatvaranja Pjera Žalice, tu je i svjetska premijera novog filma Aide Begić BALADA u Takmičarskom programu za igrani film, pretpremijera prve završene igrane dramske serije u produkciji BH Telecoma KOTLINA kreatora Danisa Tanovića i Amre Bakšić Čamo, te kao posebna besplatna predfestivalska projekcija 11. augusta u Ljetnom kinu Coca-Cola radna verzija dokumentarca o Emeriku Blumu Jasmile Žbanić, koja će publiku pozvati da pomogne produkciju filma podijelivši svoja sjećanja ili materijale vezane za nevjerovatni razvoj Sarajeva u periodu Blumovog vodstva u “Energoinvestu” i Gradu Sarajevu.

Ovakav festival moguć je jedino uz svesrdnu podršku naših sponzora, pokrovitelja i partnera – velikog broja privatnih i javnih preduzeća, institucija vlasti Bosne i Hercegovine, institucija kulture u BiH, domaćih i međunarodnih fondacija, stranih ambasada u Bosni i Hercegovini koje dijele naše vrijednosti i želju da se Sarajevo Film Festival razvija kao vrhunski međunarodni kulturni događaj širokog ekonomskog i društvenog uticaja za Sarajevo i Bosnu i Hercegovinu. Zahvalni smo im na tome. Zahvaljujemo se i svim prijateljima festivala i svim posvećenim ljudima koji rade na organizaciji festivala, bilo kroz cijelu godinu ili samo u periodu neposrednog održavanja festivala, njihova ljubav prema filmu i želja da festival uspije je stvarna tajna uspjeha festivala.

Posebna zahvala ipak ide Mirsadu Purivatri za njegovo nevjerovatno vodstvo od samog osnivanja Festivala do danas. Mirsad Purivatra se nakon 27 godina na čelu Festivala povukao iz svakodnevnih rukovodećih poslova i sada kao predsjednik Udruženja Obala Art Centar nastavlja svoju podršku razvoju Festivala. Miro, hvala ti!

Našoj publici i gostima ove godine napokon, opet u punom kapacitetu, želimo dobrodošlicu i trenutke za pamćenje na 28. Sarajevo Film Festivalu od 12. do 19. augusta.

E The 28th edition of the Sarajevo Film Festival continues its dedication to the event’s guiding concept – to present films and television series of the highest quality to our audiences, and to be a platform for the development of film production in our region. The festival will screen more than 220

films from around the world, including fifty-one from Southeast Europe that will have their premieres in our four competition sections, making the festival the best presentation of our regional film production in the world. Each year, we face the question of what the next edition of the Sarajevo Film Festival will bring. Around the globe, the past two years have been a period of constant change. The way films are screened has changed, and audiences have adopted, embraced, and adapted to new opportunities. Nevertheless, amid the ongoing upheaval, the desire of cinemagoers to watch films together was stronger than ever. Watching films in a festival atmosphere, indoors and out, in cinemas in Sarajevo in summertime remains a truly unique experience. We are happy that, once again, we will gather in our customary festival locations with our guests from around the world, without limitations.

This year’s Palme d’Or winner, Ruben Östlund’s TRIANGLE OF SADNESS, kicks off the festival, while the world premiere of a Bosnian film, Pjer Žalica’s MAY LABOR DAY, brings it to a close. The ever-popular masterclass programme includes public lectures by Östlund, Ari Folman, Sergei Loznitsa, Paul Schrader, Michael Winterbottom, and our very own Jasmila Žbanić. More than one thousand film and television professionals will gather for the CineLink Film Industry Days, Talents Sarajevo, the newly introduced Heart of Sarajevo Awards for televisions series – all together, a rich programme of conferences and the promotion of the most promising film and TV drama projects from our region. Our audiences – whether watching in Sarajevo, Mostar, or around the country via our VoD platform – will have the chance to see avant premieres and premieres of Bosnian and regional films and series, as well as numerous international titles, and so we are confident this edition of the Sarajevo Film Festival will be a celebration of the art of the moving image for the entire city, country, and wider region. We are especially happy this year to showcase numerous films and television series from Bosnia and Herzegovina, including new projects by some of our country’s most prominent auteurs. In addition to closing the festival with Pjer Žalica’s latest, we present the premiere of Aida Begić’s new film, THE BALLAD; the first Bosnian drama series presented in our Avant Premiere and the first produced by BH Telecom, Danis Tanović and Amra Bakšić Čamo’s THE HOLLOW; and a pre-festival, free screening of the working version of Jasmila Žbanić’s documentary film about Emerik Blum on 11 August at the Coca-Cola Open Air Cinema. Zbanić will use the opportunity to invite members of the audience to help her complete the film by sharing memories or materials they might have about the unbelievable development of Sarajevo under Blum’s leadership of Energoinvest and the city. A festival such as ours is made possible by the genuine support of our sponsors, backers, and partners, which include numerous private and public companies, government institutions, institutions of culture in Bosnia and Herzegovina, national and international foundations, and foreign embassies in our country that share our values and our desire to see the continued growth and development of the Sarajevo Film Festival as a highly valuable cultural event with broad economic and social impact on the City of Sarajevo and Bosnia and Herzegovina at large. We are very grateful for their support. We give thanks to all friends of the festival and other people who help organise it, both throughout the year and in the immediate pre-festival period. Their love of film and their desire to see the festival thrive is the true secret of our success.

Our special gratitude this year, however, is reserved for Mirsad Purivatra for his phenomenal and inspiring leadership of our beloved festival from its founding until now. After twenty-seven years at the helm, Mirsad Purivatra has withdrawn from the day-to-day management of the festival and now continues to support its further growth and development from his post as Chair of the Obala Art Centar Association. Miro – thank you!

This year, we welcome filmgoers and our guests to a festival that has returned to its full capacity, and we hope that they will have many memorable moments at this 28th Sarajevo Film Festival.

Takmičarski program – igrani film / Competition Programme – Feature Film

Uvod / Introduction

S ovogodišnjom selekcijom obilježavamo tačno 20 godina Takmičarskog programa Sarajevo Film Festivala. Program je ustanovljen 2003. godine kao nasljednik dotadašnjeg regionalnog programa koji je okupljao kinematografije posttranzicijske regije. Od tada pa do danas predstavili smo gotovo 200 filmova i na stotine regionalnih autorica i autora, producentica i producenata te glumica i glumaca.

Ova godina posebna je po tome što u našu regionalnu porodicu prihvatamo i kinematografiju Ukrajine, čiji stanovnici preživljavaju najteže dane u proteklih par mjeseci. Rat u Ukrajini i ruska agresija motivisala nas je da ubrzamo svoje planove i proširimo se i na ovu zemlju koja je u filmskom smislu izuzetno zanimljiva teritorija, a bit će važan izvor filmova za naš Takmičarski program. Na tom tragu u selekciji se i našao film KLONDIKE autorice Marine Er Gorbach koji je zasigurno jedan od uspješnijih filmova regije ove godine. Film je premijerno prikazan na Filmskom festivalu u Sundanceu, gdje je osvojio nagradu za najbolju režiju u kategoriji World Cinema Dramatic Competition. Film je nakon toga prikazan u Berlinu u programu Panorama, a do sada je osvojio brojne nagrade. Tragedija aviona Malaysia Airlinesa iz 2014. godine, kao i sukob u Donbasu, predstavljaju kontekst i podlogu za drugi igrani film Marine Er Gorbach u kojem se pruža puni uvid u oružani sukob iz perspektive civila, prije svega nevinih žena koje su neminovno žrtve. Iako se radnja filma odvija 2014. godine, ovaj film nosi snažnu antiratnu poruku koju nikada nije dovoljno ponavljati, osobito danas. Film će u Takmičarskom programu imati svoju regionalnu premijeru, baš kao i film KORZET austrijske rediteljice Marie Kreutzer koji je premijerno prikazan na Filmskom festivalu u Cannesu u programu Izvjestan pogled. Film je hrabra kostimirana drama u čijem centru je Elizabeta Austrijska, carica Austrije i žena Franje Josipa I, koja je svjesna da se nalazi u kraljevskom zatvoru kakav je zapravo život jedne žene na dvoru. Film u nekoliko epizoda prati Elizabetin život: njeno putovanje Evropom, prikazivanje njenog poremećaja u ishrani, do korištenja opojnih sredstava, pa sve do njenih tajni i pokušaja da spasi svoje žensko dostojanstvo. Radi se o savremenom tumačenju filma epohe u kojem se smjelo miješa stvarnost i fikcija, savremena muzika s elementima koji su vjerni dobu i vremenu u kojem je radnja smještena. Peti igrani film Marie Kreutzer snažan je doprinos savremenom feminističkom filmu osobito u preispitivanju historije i ženskih historijskih ličnosti.

Prije nego ih prikažemo u Sarajevu, dva filma iz konkurencije svoje će svjetske premijere imati na Locarno Film Festivalu. Riječ je o drugom austrijskom naslovu u ovogodišnjoj konkurenciji, o filmu SERVIAM – JA ĆU SLUŽITI, trećem filmu rediteljice Ruth Mader. Film nas vodi u svijet katoličke škole koju pohađaju djeca austrijske i evropske elite, a koja tu djecu sa svojom dogmom vodi u sigurni ponor. Film je okrutna priča o nedostatku slobode, o odrastanju u krutim okolnostima vjere, te je samim tim i kritika savremenog zapadnog društva, uz jak vizualni izričaj u kojem se igrano kombinira s animiranim. Drugi film koji iz Locarna dolazi u Sarajevo je hrvatski prvenac Juraja Lerotića SIGURNO MJESTO, razvijan kroz CineLink koprodukcijski market. Film se temelji na ličnom iskustvu autora, koji igra naslovnu ulogu, a govori o traumatičnom događaju odnosno iznenadnom pokušaju samoubistva brata glavnoga junaka koji otvara procjep u svakodnevnom životu tročlane porodice. Radnja je reducirana, i vremenski i narativno, samo na ono najvažnije, uz situacije koje se svode samo na najvažnije –kako spasiti brata.

Jedna od najznačajnijih autorica savremenog bosanskohercegovačkog filma, a i šire, Aida Begić imat će svjetsku premijeru svog četvrtog igranog filma BALADA. Film je hrabra i smjela adaptacija i ekranizacija poznate usmene balade o Hasanaginici. U filmu BALADA autorica se slobodno kreće kroz narativ, kroz filmsko vrijeme, poigravajući se pričom, vremenskim okvirom, i narušavajući klasične konvencije filma, stvarajući jednu intertekstualnu i metatekstualnu igru u kojoj je na kraju samo važna sloboda. U glavnoj ulozi se našla glumica Marija Pikić, dobitnica Srca Sarajeva za najbolju glumicu iz 2012. godine.

Rumunski reditelj Paul Negoescu imat će svjetsku premijeru filma ČOVJEK OD DJELA o seoskom policajcu u kasnim tridesetim godinama, koji pokušava da izgradi udoban i pristojan život za sebe, ali ga njegova pasivnost u nizu nasilnih događaja učini saučesnikom jednom ubistvu. Napetost raste u selu, što ga natjera da donese jednu drastičnu odluku, prvi put u svom životu. Debitantski film JAHAČI reditelja Dominika Menceja iz Slovenije publiku vodi u Sloveniju 1999, kada dva prijatelja iz maloga sela odluče da transformišu svoje mopede u motore i krenu u životno putovanje. U potrazi za slobodom i ljubavlju, oni kreću da ostvare svoje snove, bez obzira na sredinu koja ih stalno sputava.

Elma Tataragić

Ovaj film, koji je rađen i koprodukciji s Bosnom i Hercegovinom, u programu će imati svjetsku premijeru.

Svjetsku premijeru imat će i film ŠEST SEDMICA mađarske rediteljice Noémi Veronike Szakonyi, a koji donosi priču o sedamnaestogodišnjoj pasioniranoj igračici stonog tenisa, koja mora nakratko napustiti svoje snove zbog trudnoće. Iako je sigurna u svoju odluku da dijete da na usvajanje, nakon poroda naći će se u iskušenju i postavit će si pitanje: da li treba da bude majka svom djetetu. Film je izuzetno suptilan i hrabar, s nekoliko izuzetno dubokih i slojevitih ženskih likova.

Sa četiri svjetske i četiri regionalne premijere, sa četiri rediteljice i četiri reditelja i tri debitantska filma, zaokružujemo 20. izdanje Takmičarskog programa Sarajevo Film Festivala, koji i dalje pruža uvid u svu raznovrsnost i savremenost regionalnih kinematografija.

E This year’s selection marks the twentieth edition of the Competition Programme of the Sarajevo Film Festival. The programme was launched in 2003 to replace the festival’s regional programme, which was dedicated to the filmmakers from our post-transitional region. Since its establishment, the competition has presented some two hundred films and hosted hundreds of regional filmmakers, producers, and actors.

This year is also special because we are welcoming into our regional family the filmmaking community of Ukraine, a country whose people are currently living through the most horrific days of their lives. Russia’s aggression against Ukraine has prompted us to expedite our existing plans and expand our reach to the war-torn country, which has a phenomenal film tradition and will be an important source of films for our Competition Programme. Consequently, the 2022 lineup includes KLONDIKE by Maryna Er Gorbach, certainly among the most successful regional productions this year. The film premiered at the Sundance Film Festival, where it received the Best Director Award in the World Cinema Dramatic Competition, and was then screened at the Berlinale in the Panorama section and received numerous other awards. The tragic downing in 2014 of Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 and the war in the Donbas region of Ukraine provide the context and serve as the basis for Er Gorbach’s second feature, which offers deep

insight into armed conflict from the vantage point of civilians, primarily innocent women who unavoidably become its victims. Although the story is set in 2014, its powerful anti-war message cannot be repeated often enough, especially today. The film will have its regional premiere in our programme, as will Austrian director Marie Kreutzer’s CORSAGE, which premiered in the Un Certain Regard section of the Festival de Cannes. Kreutzer’s film is a brave period drama that follows the story of Empress Elisabeth of Austria, the wife of Emperor Franz Joseph I, as she grapples with the realisation that for her, just as for any other woman in her position, the life of a royal is life in a gilded cage. The film traces several episodes in Elisabeth’s life, depicting her travels through Europe, her eating disorder, and her opiate consumption, as well as her secrets and attempts to preserve her female dignity. It is a modern take on period drama that bravely mixes facts and fiction, featuring a contemporary music score with elements representative of the time and place in which the story is set. Kreutzer’s fifth feature is an important addition to the contemporary feminist film canon, especially as it questions the history and the historic role of women.

Before their screenings in Sarajevo, two films from our selection will have their world premieres at the Locarno Festival. One is Ruth Mader’s third feature and our second entry from Austria: SERVIAM – I WILL SERVE. The film takes viewers into the world of a Catholic boarding school for the offspring of wealthy Austrian and European elite that, through its dogma, leads its pupils to certain ruin. It is a cruel story about the lack of freedom and growing up within the strict constraints of religion. As such, it is a sharp critique of modern Western society, combining live action with animation. The second film that comes to Sarajevo after Locarno is SAFE PLACE, the debut feature by Juraj Lerotić of Croatia – a film developed within our own CineLink Co-production Market. Lerotić plays the leading role in the film, which is based on his personal life and tells the story of a traumatic event – a suicide attempt by the protagonist’s brother – which upends the daily life of a three-member family. The film is condensed both in terms of its timeline and its storyline to focus on what is its most important question: How one can save one’s brother?

A BALLAD, the fourth narrative feature by Aida Begić, one of the most important representa-

tives of Bosnia and Herzegovina’s contemporary cinema (and beyond), has its world premiere in our programme. It is a brave and daring screen adaptation of the well-known Slavic folk ballad Hasanaginica. In the film, Begić freely flows freely through time and narration, breaking film conventions to create an inter- and meta-textual play that values only one thing: freedom. Starring in the lead role is Bosnia’s Marija Pikić, the winner of the 2012 Heart of Sarajevo Award for Best Actress.

Romanian director Paul Negoescu joins us in Sarajevo to attend the world premiere of his latest film, MEN OF DEEDS, which tells the story of a rural police officer in his late thirties who is trying to build a comfortable and decent life for himself but becomes an accomplice to murder due to his passivity in the face of several violent crimes. As tensions in his village rise, the protagonist is forced to make a drastic decision for the first time in his life. RIDERS, the debut feature by Dominik Mancej of Slovenia, takes us to Slovenia in 1999 to tell the story of two friends from a small village who decide to transform their mopeds into choppers and embark on a journey of their lifetime in search of freedom and love. The two men are resolved to realise their dreams despite the constraints imposed on them by society. The film, a co-production with Bosnia-Herzegovina, has its world premiere in our programme.

SIX WEEKS, by Hungarian director Noémi Veronike Szakonyi, also has its world premiere in Sarajevo. The film tells the story of a seventeenyear-old enthusiastic table tennis player who is forced by pregnancy to put her dreams on hold. Although the film’s protagonist is certain in her decision to give birth and give up her newborn for adoption, after she delivers the baby she must confront the question of whether she should be the mother to her child. It is a very subtle and brave movie with several well developed and multi-layered female characters.

Four world and four regional premieres, films by four female and four male directors, as well as three debut films, make up this twentieth edition of the Competition Programme of the Sarajevo Film Festival, which keeps raising the curtain on the diversity and modernity of regional film productions.

Balada / A Ballad

Merjem-Meri (30), neambiciozna domaćica i majka djevojčice Mile (8), poslije deset godina bračnog života vraća se u roditeljsku kuću. Ubrzo nakon povratka, Meri shvaća da je zarobljena u začaranom krugu provincijskih zakona i pravila, kao i u kompleksnim relacijama između ambiciozne majke i razmaženog mlađeg brata. Njena nada da će dobiti skrbništvo nad kćerkom je svakim danom sve manja jer nema priliku da nađe stalni posao. Jedino što je čini sretnom, a zbog čega je svi osuđuju, odlazak je na audiciju za film koji se snima u susjedstvu.

Aida Begić je diplomirala multimedijalnu režiju na Akademiji scenskih umjetnosti u Sarajevu. Njen diplomski film PRVO SMRTNO ISKUSTVO prikazan je na Filmskom festivalu u Cannesu u selekciji Cinéfondation. Debitantski dugometražni igrani film SNIJEG dobitnik je Grand Prix nagrade programa Sedmica kritike Filmskog festivala u Cannesu, te ga je Evropska filmska akademija nominovala kao otkriće godine u sekciji Discovery. Njen drugi dugometražni igrani film DJECA premijerno je prikazan na Filmskom festivalu u Cannesu u selekciji Izvjestan pogled, gdje je i nagrađen specijalnom nagradom žirija. Scenaristica je i rediteljica kratkog filma ALBUM, dijela omnibusa MOSTOVI SARAJEVA, koji je premijerno prikazan u oficijelnoj selekciji Filmskog festivala u Cannesu. Njen igrani film NE OSTAVLJAJ ME je višestruko nagrađivan i prikazivan na festivalima širom svijeta. BALADA je njen četvrti dugometražni igrani film. Redovna je profesorica na Akademiji scenskih umjetnosti u Sarajevu. Članica je AMPAS-a, EFA-e, SACD-a i UFRBiH.

E Merjem-Meri, an unambitious, thirty-year-old housewife and mother to eight-year-old girl Mila, moves back to her parents’ home after ten years of marriage. Soon after, Meri realises she is stuck in a circle of provincial rules and expectations and a complex relationship with her ambitious mother and spoiled younger brother. Her hope to gain custody of her daughter wanes from day to day because she has no chance of finding a permanent job. The only thing that makes her happy – but that makes everyone else look down on her – is auditioning for a film role in her neighbourhood.

Aida Begić graduated after studying directing at the Sarajevo Academy of Performing Arts. Her graduation film, FIRST DEATH EXPERIENCE, was presented in the Cinéfondation Official Selection at the Festival de Cannes. Her debut narrative feature, SNOW, premiered at Cannes in the Semaine de la Critique, where it won the Grand Prix, and was nominated for a European Film Academy Award in the Discovery section. Begić’s second narrative feature, CHILDREN OF SARAJEVO, premiered in Un Certain Regard at Cannes, where it won the Special Distinction of the Jury. Begić wrote and directed the short film ALBUM, part of the omnibus film BRIDGES OF SARAJEVO, which premiered at Cannes as a Special Screening. Begić’s narrative feature NEVER LEAVE ME won numerous awards and was screened at film festivals around the world. BALLAD is her fourth narrative feature. Begić is a tenured professor at the Sarajevo Academy of Performing arts and a member of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, the European Film Academy, the Société des Auteurs et Compsiteurs Dramatique, and the Association of Filmmakers in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Corsage / Korset

Imperatorica Elizabeta Austrijska slavljena je zbog svoje ljepote i uspostavljanja modnih trendova. Ali “Sisi” 1877. slavi četrdeseti rođendan i da bi održala imidž prisiljena je da sve više steže svoj korset. Dok je Elizabetina uloga, protivno njenoj volji, svedena na nivo dekoracije, zbog njene gladi za znanjem i strasti prema životu, sve manje joj odgovara život u Beču. Elizabeta putuje u Englesku i Bavariju, gdje posjećuje bivše ljubavnike i stare prijatelje u potrazi za uzbuđenjem i svrhom njenog mladog života. Svjesna da je čeka budućnost puna strogo ceremonijalnih obaveza, Elizabeta se pobuni protiv vlastitog prenaglašenog javnog imidža i smišlja plan kako da zaštiti vlastitu zaostavštinu.

Marie Kreutzer, rođena u Grazu, uvrštava se među najcjenjenije i najznačajnije austrijske filmske stvaraoce. Diplomirala je scenarij i dramaturgiju na Filmskoj akademiji u Beču. Nakon toga je radila kao supervizorica scenarija i u kontinuitetu i na filmu i na televiziji snimila niz nagrađivanih kratkih igranih filmova. Njen prvi dugometražni igrani film DIE VATERLOSEN prikazan je i nagrađen na brojnim festivalima, uključujući Međunarodni filmski festival u Berlinu, gdje je uvršten u program Panorama Special. Međunarodnu pažnju je privukla filmom DER BODEN UNTER DEN FÜßEN koji je prikazan u takmičarskom programu Međunarodnog filmskog festivala u Berlinu i osvojio naklonost kritike i niz nagrada širom svijeta. Osim kao rediteljica, radila je i kao scenaristica i dramaturginja, te je predavala na Filmskoj akademiji u Beču.

E Empress Elisabeth of Austria is idolised for her beauty and renowned for inspiring fashion trends. But, in 1877, “Sissi” celebrates her fortieth birthday and must fight to maintain her public image by lacing her corset tighter and tighter. While Elisabeth’s role has been reduced, against her wishes, to one that is purely performative, her hunger for knowledge and zest for life make her more and more restless in Vienna. She travels to England and Bavaria, visiting former lovers and old friends, seeking the excitement and purpose of her youth. With a future of strictly ceremonial duties laid out in front of her, Elisabeth rebels against the hyperbolic image of herself and comes up with a plan to protect her legacy.

Marie Kreutzer, born in Graz, is one of Austria’s most important and established filmmakers. She graduated from the Film Academy Vienna in the field of screenwriting and dramaturgy. Afterward, she worked as a script supervisor and in continuity in cinema and television productions and made a variety of award-winning short feature films. Her first feature-length film, THE FATHERLESS, has been shown at and won awards from numerous festivals, including the Berlin International Film Festival. With THE GROUND BENEATH MY FEET, she attracted international attention. The film was selected for competition in the Berlinale, received fantastic reviews worldwide, and won several awards. In addition to her work as a director, Kreutzer has worked as a lecturer at the Film Academy Vienna and as a screenwriter and dramaturge.

Buntovna tinejdžerka Zsófi živi u stančiću s mlađom sestrom Mesi i nestabilnom majkom Beom. Zsófi je prekasno shvatila da je trudna, te se odlučuje da će, nakon što se porodi, dijete dati na usvajanje neplodnom paru. Bea ne može prihvatiti kćerkinu odluku, ali ne shvata da ni ona ni njihovi životni uslovi nisu podobni za novorođenče. Zsófi se oduvijek morala ponašati kao odrasla osoba, raditi i umjesto majke donositi razumne odluke za sebe i svoju sestru. Još uvijek pohađa srednju školu i jedino što je zanima jeste karijera igračice stonog tenisa, na čemu naporno radi. Uz pomoć socijalne radnice priprema se za davanje djeteta na usvajanje. Prema zakonu, nakon poroda ima šest sedmica da se predomisli i zatraži povratak dijete. Čini se da je Zsófi u stanju hladnokrvno kontrolisati svoje emocije i kretati prema ciljevima koje je sebi postavila. Istovremeno, njen majčinski instinkt se budi i počinju je obuzimati sumnje. Ona polako počinje preispitivati vlastitu odluku.

Noémi Veronika Szakonyi je samostalna filmska rediteljica i producentica. Filmsku edukaciju je započela na Filmskoj akademiji u Pekingu, a režiju dokumentarnog filma je magistrirala na Univerzitetu za pozorište i filmsku umjetnost u Budimpešti. Od 2017. do 2018. godine bila je jedan od kandidata na magistarskom programu Tisch škole za filmsku umjetnost Univerziteta u New Yorku. Noémi je 2015, 2019. i 2021. bila dobitnica granta Dokumentarnog programa Filmskog festivala Sundance. Trenutno u Budimpešti vodi vlastitu produkcijsku kompaniju Match Frame Production, usredsređujući se na društveno angažovane dokumentarne i kratke filmove.

E Zsófi, a rebellious teenager, lives in a tiny flat with her little sister, Mesi, and her unstable mother, Bea. Zsófi discovers late that she is pregnant and decides to give up her baby through open adoption to an infertile couple. Bea cannot accept her daughter’s decision, but she does not realise that neither Zsófi, nor the circumstances, are suitable to welcome a newborn. Zsófi has always had to behave like a grown-up, working and making sensible decisions, instead of her mother and for her sister. She is still in high school and her only advantage is her table tennis career, for which she works assiduously. She plans the adoption thoroughly with the help of a social worker. Following the birth, she is given six weeks by law to change her mind and ask for her child back. She seems to be able to control her feelings ruthlessly and continue towards the goals she has set. At the same time, her maternal feelings intensify, doubts arise, and she slowly begins to question her decisions.

Noémi Veronika Szakonyi is a freelance film director and producer. She started her film education on a scholarship at the Beijing Film Academy and graduated from the Directing Documentaries MA programme at the University of Theatre and Film Arts in Budapest.

Slovenija, proljeće 1999. Dva prijatelja iz maloga sela odluče pretvoriti svoje mopede u čopere i krenuti na put. U potrazi za slobodom i ljubavi, putuju kroz snove o prošlosti i vizije budućnosti. Vođeni ludim impulsima i progonjeni konzervativnim kalupima tradicije, počinju vjerovati i shvatati stvari koje prethodno nisu mogli ni zamisliti. Na putu kroz Sloveniju i Hrvatsku – zemlje koje su se netom otcijepile od Jugoslavije – prati ih mlada, odbjegla žena misteriozne prošlosti i stari bajker koji je obišao svijet u potrazi za slobodom. Kroz zajednička iskustva oni jedni drugima i sami sebi postavljaju izazove koji prekidaju njihove veze sa prošlošću i otvaraju put za nešto novo. Ali taj put je prevrtljiv i, uz iznenadnu smrt jednog od saputnika, stavlja prijateljstvo na kušnju.

Dominik Mencej slovenački je pisac i reditelj, a diplomirao je filmsku i TV režiju na Akademiji za pozorište, radio, film i televiziju u Ljubljani. Režirao je brojne TV serije, a u Sloveniji je najpoznatiji po nagrađivanim magično realističkim kratkim filmovima koji su naišli na odličan prijem kod kritičara.

E Slovenia, the spring of 1999. Two friends from a small village decide to transform their mopeds into choppers and embark on a journey. Looking for freedom and love, they travel through dreams of the past and visions of the future. Driven by mad impulses and haunted by conservative moulds of tradition, they start believing and understanding things that were previously unimaginable. On the road through Slovenia and Croatia – countries recently separated from Yugoslavia – they are accompanied by a young runaway woman with a mysterious past and an old biker who has seen the world in search of freedom but still hasn’t found it. These characters challenge each other and themselves through shared experiences, which break their ties to and conception of the old, thus giving way to the new. But the path is treacherous and with the sudden death of a companion, friendship is at stake and pain is unbearable without someone to blame.

Dominik Mencej, Slovenian writer and director, graduated after studies in film and television directing from the Academy of Theatre, Radio, Film and Television at the University of Ljubljana. He has worked as a director on many television series and is best known in Slovenia for his award-winning and critically acclaimed magical realist short films.

Klondike

Juli 2014. Irka i Tolik, koji uskoro očekuju rođenje djeteta, žive u Donjecku, regiji u istočnoj Ukrajini nedaleko od granice sa Rusijom, oko kojeg su se vodile borbe u prvim danima rata u Donbasu. Njihovo nervozno iščekivanje rođenja prvoga djeteta nasilno prekida rastuća napetost usred rušenja aviona MH17 nedaleko od njihovog sela. Olupina oborenog aviona i parada ožalošćenih koji dolaze posjetiti mjesto nesreće naglašavaju nadrealnu traumatičnost trenutka. Dok Tolikovi prijatelji separatisti očekuju da se on pridruži njihovim naporima, Irkin brat je bijesan jer sumnja da su njih dvoje izdali Ukrajinu. Irka odbija da bude evakuirana čak i nakon što vojska okupira selo i pokušava izmiriti svoga brata i svoga muža tako što ih zamoli da zajedno renoviraju njihovu bombardovanu kuću.

Maryna Er Gorbach završila je magistarski studij u Školi filmske režije Andrzej Wajda (Poljska) nakon studiranja na Državnom univerzitetu za pozorište, film i televiziju u Kijevu. Članica je Evropske filmske akademije od 2017. Njeni prethodni radovi uključuju filmove OMAR VE BİZ, s kojim je na Filmskom festivalu u Varšavi osvojila nagradu ekumenskog žirija, te KARA KÖPEKLER HAVLARKEN, koji je premijerno prikazan na Međunarodnom filmskom festivalu u Roterdamu. KLONDIKE je prvi film koji je samostalno napisala i režirala, a sa njim je osvojila nagradu za najbolju režiju na Filmskom festivalu Sundance 2022. (u konkurenciji međunarodnog igranog filma) i nagradu ekumenskog žirija na 72. Međunarodnom filmskom festivalu u Berlinu (u programu Panorama).

E July 2014. Expectant parents Irka and Tolik live in the Donetsk region of eastern Ukraine near the Russian border, disputed territory in the early days of War in Donbas. Their nervous anticipation of the birth of their first child is violently disrupted as the nearby crash of flight MH17 elevates the forbidding tension enveloping their village. The looming wreckage of the downed airliner and an incoming parade of mourners emphasise the surreal trauma of the moment. While Tolik’s separatist friends expect him to join their efforts, Irka’s brother is enraged by suspicion that the couple has betrayed Ukraine. Irka refuses to be evacuated even as the village gets captured by armed forces, and tries to make peace between her husband and brother by asking them to repair their bombed house. Maryna Er Gorbach graduated from the Andrzej Wajda Master School of Film Directing (Poland) after studying at the Kyiv National I. K. Karpenko-Kary Theatre, Cinema & Television University. Since 2017, Er Gorbach has been a member of the European Film Academy. Among her previous works are the Warsaw Film Festival Ecumenical Jury Award winner OMAR AND US, and BLACK DOGS BARKING, which premiered at the International Film Festival Rotterdam. For KLONDIKE, her solo directorial debut, Er Gorbach received the Best Director Award in the World Cinema Dramatic Competition at the Sundance Film Festival, and the Ecumenical Jury Award at the Berlin International Film Festival in the Panorama section.

Oameni de treabă / Čovjek od djela / Men of Deeds

Ilie, lokalni šef policije, želi izgraditi siguran život za sebe, ali napravi jednu pogrešku. Sredovječan i otuđen, Ilie osjeća potrebu da bude dio nečega – da posadi voćnjak ili čak izgradi kuću. Iako se u selu dešavaju čudne stvari, Ilie vidi samo ono što mu odgovara. Kolaps nastaje onda kada se Ilie uključi u seoska zbivanja. U nedostatku rješenja, Ilie pokušava biti nešto što nikada nije bio: borac za pravdu koji hapsi sve koji su to zaslužili.

Paul Negoescu je studirao filmsku režiju u Državnoj školi za film u Bukureštu. Njegovi kratki filmovi prikazani su na brojnim međunarodnim filmskim festivalima (Filmski festival u Cannesu, Berlinale). Njegov prvi igrani film O LUNA IN THAILANDA premijerno je prikazan na Međunarodnom filmskom festivalu u Veneciji 2012, dok je drugi DOUA LOZURI bio jedan od najuspješnijih filmova u kinima u Rumuniji.

E Ilie, a small-town police chief, wants to build a comfortable life for himself, but ends up making the wrong choices. Middle-aged and alienated, he feels the need to be a part of something – to build an orchard, even a home. Although dubious things happen in the village, Ilie only sees what suits him. The moment he gets involved in village life marks the beginning of his collapse. In a vacuum of solutions, he tries to be what he has never been before: the justice-seeker who arrests everyone who might be guilty.

Paul Negoescu studied film directing at the national film school in Bucharest. His short films were selected for numerous international festivals, including the Festival de Cannes and the Berlin International Film Festival. His debut film, A MONTH IN THAILAND, had its premiere at the Venice International Film Festival in 2012, while his second feature, TWO LOTTERY TICKETS, became one of the most successful Romanian films at the box office.

Ženski katolički školski internat u predgrađu Beča, namijenjen bogatoj austrijskoj eliti. Škola opstaje, ali broj vjernika je u opadanju i prostorije na višim spratovima internata su prazne. Direktorica internata, mlada i energična časna sestra, strastveno se bori protiv te propasti. Jedna od njenih omiljenih učenica, dvanaestogodišnja Martha, posvećena je djevojčica koja želi ispaštati grijehe čovječanstva. Uz blagoslov direktorice, Martha dobija kaiš za pokajnike i odvode je na jedan od napuštenih gornjih spratova.

Ruth Mader je studirala režiju na Odsjeku za film i televiziju Univerziteta za muziku i scenske umjetnosti u Beču. S pohvalama je završila magistarski studij pod mentorstvom Michaela Hanekea.

E An all-girls Catholic boarding school near Vienna for the wealthy Austrian elite. The school is thriving, but faith is declining, and the upper floors are deserted. The head of the institution, a young, energetic nun, fights with ardour against this decline. Twelve-year-old Martha, one of the nun’s favourite pupils, is a devoted girl who wishes to expiate the sins of the world. Encouraged by the nun, she is given a penance belt and taken to the abandoned upper floor.

Ruth Mader studied directing in the Film and Television Department of the University for Music and Performing Arts in Vienna, and graduated with distinction from Michael Haneke’s Master Class. projects have been invited to the Festival de Cannes four times: in 2001, NULL DEFIZIT was presented by the Cinéfondation; in 2003, her debut feature STRUGGLE was in Un Certain Regard; in 2005, GFRASTA was selected for Tous les Cinémas du Monde; and, in 2007, her screenplay for SERVIAM – ICH WILL DIENEN participated in L’ Atelier du Cinéfondation.

Sigurno mjesto / Safe Place

Traumatičan događaj, iznenadan pokušaj suicida, otvara procjep u svakodnevici tročlane obitelji. Njihov život mijenja se iz temelja, kao da su uvučeni u rat nevidljiv svima ostalima. Radnja se zbiva unutar kratkog perioda i reducirana je na ono najakutnije – spašavanje bližnjega. SIGURNO MJESTO temelji se na osobnom iskustvu autora Juraja Lerotića, ujedno i glavnog aktera filma.

Juraj Lerotić rođen je 1978. godine u Kielu, Njemačka. Studirao je predškolski odgoj i teologijiu, a kasnije diplomirao filmsku i televizijsku režiju na Akademiji dramske umjetnosti u Zagrebu. Njegov srednjemetražni film ONDA VIDIM TANJU premijerno je prikazan na Filmskom festivalu u Rotterdamu i emitovan na televizijskom kanalu ARTE.

E A traumatic event, a sudden suicide attempt, tears the fabric of a family of three. Their life is turned upside down, as if they had been driven into a war imperceptible to anyone but them. The timeline of the film is very short, reduced to what is the most important – saving the one you love. SAFE PLACE was inspired by personal experience of the director, Juraj Lerotić, who also plays the main role in the film.

Juraj Lerotić was born in 1987 in Kiel, Germany. He studied preschool education and theology before graduating in film and television directing from the Academy of Dramatic Art in Zagreb. His medium-length film THEN I SEE TANJA premiered at the International Film Festival Rotterdam and was broadcast by ARTE.

Otvorena vrata puna mogućnosti / A Proposal for a Door

Vjerujem da u svakoj zemlji festivalski program dokumentarnog filma donosi posebno uzbuđenje. To je mjesto gdje se otvaraju velika vrata prema svijetu, prema bitnom, često i gorućem u društvu.

Događaj je to koji otvara prostor za urgentne priče, potiče relevantne diskusije, budi svijest. Ukratko, mjeri temperaturu društva. Naša regija obiluje takvim uzbudljivim pričama koje su tokom protekle tri decenije vrlo često gledane iz inostrane perspektive, tako da filmovi koji se regionalnim pričama bave iz perspektive “insajdera”, lokalnog autora, zaslužuju da budu predstavljeni na velikoj festivalskoj sceni. Zanimljivo je da filmski autori iz naše regije rijetko kada tragaju za temama u udaljenim zemljama ili na drugim kontinentima. Nije to samo zato sto bi snimanje negdje tamo daleko bilo skupo. Autori su odistinski vjerni svojoj zemlji, ljudima iz vlastitog okruženja i progovaraju o njihovim sudbinama i to ne samo kao umjetnici već i kao građani kojima je duboko stalo do svog vlastitog podneblja. Ja imam veliko poštovanje za takve autore. Znatno je delikatnije baviti se lokalnim temama o kojima svi oko vas već imaju svoje mišljenje nego istraživati i filmski obrađivati priče iz nekih dalekih krajeva o kojima se malo zna, a često su baš te priče prilično egzotične i šokantne. Zbog toga vidim ulogu festivalskog selektora i u tome da publici donese ono najbolje od tih relevantnih priča iz regije, a istovremeno i da otvori vrata lokalnim autorima i omogući im da budu zapaženi na velikom festivalu a preko toga i na evropskoj dokumentarističkoj sceni.

Ove godine naš program obuhvata bogat izbor filmova različitih formata i stilova, od briljantnih cinéma vérité te poetičnih i intimnih dokumentaraca dnevničkog tipa, kao i one nastale kreativnom upotrebom arhivskog materijala. Tu su i dokumentarci unutar kojih autori eksperimentiraju ili na novi način koriste filmski jezik, te autorski filmovi koji efikasno i uz dosta mašte uklapaju animaciju u esejističku teksturu. Naš program u centar pažnje stavlja veliki broj debitanata; reditelja i producenata, mladih talenata koji tek izlaze na scenu. S ponosom ističem da su polovinu selekcioniranih filmova režirale ili producirale žene.

Nova nagrada

Ove godine u Takmičarski program uvodimo novu i veoma značajnu nagradu: Srce Sarajeva za najbolji kratki dokumentarni film. Od šezdesetih godina prošloga vijeka naša regija poznata je u svijetu po snažnim, politički

hrabrim kratkim dokumentarcima, često bez ili sa jako malo dijaloga, ali koje odlikuje lucidan vizuelni jezik. Prekrasno je da tu tradiciju nastavljaju i mlade generacije filmskih autora u gotovo svim zemljama istočne i jugoistočne Evrope, te Kavkaza. Imajući na umu da je na ovom području podrška za dokumentarnu filmsku produkciju izuzetno skromna, kratka filmska forma omogućava mladim autorima da iniciraju vlastitu karijeru, počnu pričati vlastite priče i da postanu vidljivi na evropskoj i svjetskoj filmskoj sceni. Istovremeno, kratka filmska forma daje autorima veliku slobodu da eksperimentišu i istražuju nove mogućnosti. Između ostalih, u ovogodišnjoj selekciji takmičarskog programa donosimo naslove iz zemalja sa niskobudžetnom filmskom produkcijom, poput Azerbejdžana, Kosova, Sjeverne Makedonije i Bosne i Hercegovine, te s ponosom predstavljamo talentovane, mlade i još uvijek neotkrivene autore.

Program otvaraju dvije premijere: svjetska premijera kratkog filma LITURGIJA PROTUTENKOVSKIH ZAPREKA mladog ukrajinskog reditelja Dmytra Sukholytkyy-Sobchuka, koji je nedavno na Filmskom festivalu u Cannesu predstavio dugometražni igrani film PAMFIR, te regionalna premijera filma o epidemiji velikih boginja u bivšoj Jugoslaviji JOŠ JEDNO PROLEĆE, u kojem autor majstorski tka naraciju preko uzbudljivog arhivskog materijala. Reditelj Mladen Kovačević jedan je od dobitnika Srca Sarajeva. Iz današnje (nadamo se) POSTCOVID-19 perspektive, Kovačevićeva dramatična priča iz ranih sedamdesetih godina prošloga vijeka donosi svjež pogled na taj period, učitava mu novo značenje i daje kreativni impuls u analiziranju sadašnjosti.

Između 22 filma u ovogodišnjoj selekciji, od kojih je 9 kratkih, donosimo i tri filma iz Ukrajine, zemlje koja se bori da preživi i u kojoj ljudi svakodnevno umiru i pate, ali koja ipak uspijeva iznjedriti kreativne dokumentarce i podijeliti ih sa svijetom. Također, predstavljamo nove filmske autore iz Bosne i Hercegovine, među kojima su i Farah Hasanbegović, koja završava magistarski studij u okviru prestižnog Doc Nomads programa, te producentica Amra Hadžihafizbegović Deović, koja je s rediteljem Srđanom Perkićem napravila omaž legendarnom sarajevskom kulturnom centru Skenderiji. Svi ti autori tek izlaze na profesionalnu scenu i prekrasno je svjedočiti njihovoj već očiglednoj posvećenosti dokumentarnom filmu.

Naš trening program Docu Rough Cut Boutique, koji proslavlja svoj 12. rođendan, ove godine

ostvario je fantastičnu berbu. Mnogi projekti razvijani u okviru ovog programa koji su dugo, u nekim slučajevima čak šest do sedam godina, bili u fazi postprodukcije konačno su završeni i ponosni smo da su neki od njih uvršteni u Takmičarski program.

Na kraju ovog kratkog uvoda, želim čestitati svim autorima koji su uspjeli ostvariti svoja djela u nepovoljnim i teškim pandemijskim uslovima. Pri tome treba imati na umu da većina zemalja naše regije nedovoljno podržava dokumentarne filmove, naročito krucijalnu fazu istraživanja i razvoja, tako da se svaki završeni film može smatrati velikom pobjedom.

Takmičarski program dokumentarnog filma smatram posebnim mjestom koje omogućava da zajedno kreiramo pozitivnu energiju koja pomaže lansiranju filmova u svijet, osobito onih koji će imati svjetsku premijeru, te da svi zajedno; autori i publika, otvoreno razgovaramo o temama koje nas se tiču, koje su relevantne, često goruće. Seanse razgovora s entuzijastičnom publikom Sarajevo Film Festivala nakon projekcije svakog filma, kao i svakodnevno u našem Docu Press Corneru, bez sumnje će donijeti puno uzbuđenja i podsticaja za razmišljanje.

Dobro došli!

E I would say that in every country, a documentary programme is a proposal for a door – an event that gives space to urgent narratives, invites relevant discussions, brings awareness – in short, one that measures the current temperature of society. Our region bursts with exciting stories that have often been told through a foreign gaze over the last thirty years, so films that tackle these topics from an insider’s point of view deserve to be given centre stage. In our territories, filmmakers seldom search for topics in faraway countries or other continents. They stay focused on their own country, faithful to their own people, and they speak out from personal interest, not only as artists but as citizens who deeply care for their own place. I have great respect for this. It is much more delicate to deal with a local issue – one about which everybody around you has a strong opinion – than to investigate stories in far-flung countries that seem attractive or shocking, but that no local knows anything about. With this in mind, I would say that the mission of a festival programmer is to present these locally relevant stories to audiences and, at the same time, to

open a door for local directors to be noticed, and to gain visibility and recognition.

This year’s programme salutes a rich variety of film formats and styles, among which are exciting cinéma-vérité stories; poetic, intimate diary documentaries; and complex narratives that celebrate creative uses of archival footage. We also have experimental works that have fresh takes on cinematic language, as well as documentaries that efficiently and with great imagination combine animation with essayistic texture. The selection puts a large number of debut directors and producers, new talent entering the scene, into the limelight. I also proudly emphasise the significant presence of women as directors and producers.

A New Award

This year the Competition Programme –Documentary Film introduces a new award – a very important one – the Heart of Sarajevo for Best Short Documentary. Since the 1960s, this region has been known around the world for its powerful, politically brave, short documentaries, often made using no or very few words and a lucid cinematic language. It is wonderful that this tradition is carried on by young generations in almost all countries of East and Southeast Europe and the Caucasus. Having in mind the modest support available for documentaries, the short form can give young filmmakers a chance to start their career, to begin bringing their personal narratives to the world, and to become visible on the European and world cinema landscape. At the same time, the short format allows a lot of freedom for filmmakers to engage in experimentation and to explore new possibilities. Among others, in this selection, we bring films from low cinema capacity countries like Azerbaijan, Kosovo, North Macedonia, and Bosnia and Herzegovina, and we proudly introduce talented, young, as-yet-undiscovered newcomers.

The programme opens with two productions: the Ukrainian short film LITURGY FOR ANTITANK OBSTACLES by Dmytro Sukholytkyy-Sobchuk, a young director who recently presented his fiction feature PAMFIR at the Festival de Cannes, will have its world premiere in Sarajevo. It was made during the ongoing war and was finished on the eve of the festival. As well, we present the regional premiere of ANOTHER SPRING by Heart of Sarajevo-winner Mladen Kovačević from Serbia, which features masterfully edited archival footage of a smallpox epi-

demic that occurred in Yugoslavia. From today’s perspective of these (hopefully) post-COVID-19 times, this dramatic story from the early 1970s brings a fresh view to the table, with a new meaning and stimulus.

Among this year’s selection of twenty-two films, of which nine are shorts, are three compelling documentaries from Ukraine, a country struggling to survive, its people dying and suffering every day, but nevertheless managing to create valuable art to share with the world. We also feature new authors from Bosnia and Herzegovina, among them Farah Hasanbegović, who is completing her master’s degree at the prestigious Doc Nomads, and producer Amra Hadzihafizbegović Deović, who together with director Srdjan Perkić has created an homage to Skenderija, a legendary cultural venue in Sarajevo. These are all newcomers to the professional scene and it is wonderful to observe that their commitment to documentary is already evident.

The Docu Rough Cut Boutique training programme, celebrating its twelfth edition, has an amazing harvest of works in progress this year. Many projects that have been developed through the platform – some of which have been in the post-production phase for as long as six years – have been completed and we are proud that several of them have been selected for this competition.

At the end of this brief introduction, I congratulate all those filmmakers who have managed to create work under the unfavourable and harsh circumstances of pandemic isolation. Furthermore, as most of the countries in our region are not overly generous in their support of documentaries, especially those at the stage of research and development, I consider every finished production to be a victory with a capital V.

I also see the Competition Programme – Documentary Film as a special space that welcomes and enables us to create a certain energy together, one that launches strong films and discusses powerful, relevant stories. The conversations with enthusiastic Sarajevo Film Festival audiences after each film, and at the Docu Press Corner every day, will provide lots of excitement and food for thought.

Welcome!

Atonal Glow

Historija je sačinjena od političkih, društvenih, kulturnih i drugih događaja koji oblikuju ljudsko društvo i utiču na njega. Kako vrijeme prolazi, većina ovih događaja ostaje zakopana u prošlosti i zaboravljena. Ali neki od njih, poput pojave blještavih, čudesnih pojedinaca, izdržavaju test vremena i prostora. Jedan takav blještavi pojedinac rođen je u Gruziji, a njegovo ime je Tsotne Zedginidze. Ovaj nevjerovatni desetogodišnji kompozitor jedinstvena je mješavina dječije jednostavnosti i kompleksnih, zrelih emocija.

Alexander Koridze režirao je više od 30 autorskih i televizijskih filmova. Dva puta je učestvovao na Berlinale Talent Campusu kao i na brojnim međunarodnim filmskim festivalima. Koridze je 2016. godine osnovao vlastitu produkcijsku kompaniju Spark.

E History is made up of political, social, cultural, and other events, which influence and shape society. As times goes by, most of these events are buried in the past and forgotten. But some, like the emergence of brightly shining prodigies, withstand the test of time and space. One such shining star has been born in Georgia, and his name is Tsotne Zedginidze – a ten-year-old composing prodigy who demonstrates a unique combination of childlike simplicity and complex, mature emotions.

Alexander Koridze has directed more than thirty auteur and television films. He twice participated in the Berlinale Talent Campus (now Berlinale Talents) and his work has appeared at various international film festivals. He founded Spark, his own production company, in 2016.

Babajanja

BABAJANJA je kratki esejistički dokumentarac s elementima horora. Vraćajući se u prošlost, narator pokušava pronaći misterioznu ženu koje se plašio kao dječak. Prekapajući po sjećanjima, snovima i zaboravljenim horor-filmovima, nastoji otkriti ko je ona i gdje se danas nalazi. U istragu uključuje obitelj, rodbinu, stanovnike sela. Niko od njih nije posebno raspoložen da pomogne, ali prikupljajući sve više podataka o njoj, narator je sve bliže tome da je konačno susretne.

Ante Zlatko Stolica rođen je 1985. godine u Splitu. Diplomirao je hrvatski jezik i filozofiju. Autor je nekoliko kratkih dokumentarnih i igranih filmova; koscenarist je i glumac KRATKOG IZLETA reditelja Igora Bezinovića, dobitnika Zlatne arene u Puli za najbolji film 2017. Živi i radi u Zagrebu.

E BABAJANJA is a short essay film with horror elements. Going back to the past, the narrator tries to find the mysterious woman he was scared of as a boy. Rummaging through memories, dreams, and forgotten horror films, he attempts to determine who she is, and where she is today. He includes his family and fellow villagers in his investigation – none of whom are particularly keen on helping him – but as he gathers more and more information about, the narrator is getting closer to finally meeting her.

Ante Zlatko Stolica was born in 1985 in Split. He graduated with a degree in Croatian studies and philosophy from the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences in Zagreb.

Beauty of the Beast / Ljepota zvijeri

Izgled žena koje se bave dizanjem tegova razlog je njihove neprihvaćenosti. Film zaranja ispod blistave površine kako bi otkrio razloge zbog kojih one biraju život koji žive. Četiri različita portreta, četiri različita pristupa bodybuildingu, četiri sredovječne žene – Csonka, Yvette, Eszter i Noemi –otkrivaju aspekte svojih života koje inače skrivaju od pogleda: trenutke kada nisu na pozornici, kada su vjerne sebi i provode vrijeme sa ljudima koje vole. One svoje tijela pripremaju mjesecima, pa čak i godinama. Dok sve strahove i čežnje upumpavaju u svoje mišiće, govore: “Oslobodi zvijer u sebi!” To je njihov put do uspjeha i priznanja u društvu kojem teži svako od nas.

Anna Nemes diplomirala je na Mađarskom univerzitetu likovnih umjetnosti na koji se vratila kao istraživačica na doktorskom programu. Njen prvi igrani film NJEŽNO premijerno je prikazan na Filmskom festivalu Sundance 2022. LJEPOTA ZVIJERI, njen esejističko-dokumentarni film o ženskom bodybuildingu, premijerno je prikazan na Sheffield DocFestu 2022. godine.

E The appearance of female bodybuilders makes them outcasts. Diving under the glitter, this film looks for the reasons lying behind these women’s lifestyles. Four portraits; four different approaches to bodybuilding. Four middle-aged women – Csonka, Yvette, Eszter, and Noemi – show those parts of their lives that are normally hidden from view: when they are offstage, as themselves and with their loved ones. They prepare their bodies for months, years. “Let the beast out!” the women say, while pumping all their fears and desires into their muscles. This is their way to success, and to what we all desire: appreciation.

Anna Nemes graduated from the Hungarian University of Fine Arts and returned there as a doctoral researcher. Her first fiction film, GENTLE, had its premiere at the Sundance Film Festival in 2022. BEAUTY OF THE BEAST, her essay film about female bodybuilding, had its premiere at the Sheffield DocFest in 2022.

Edna provintsialna bolnitsa / Bolnica u provinciji / A Provincial Hospital

Kyustendil, uspavani planinski grad u Bugarskoj, teško je pogođen pandemijom koronavirusa. U čvrsto povezanoj zajednici, pacijenti u bolničkim sobama sreću nekadašnje školske drugove. Bolničkim hodnicima često odjekuje ćaskanje, ali smrt nikada nije daleko. Mnogi pacijenti stalno strahuju da će se njihovo zdravstveno stanje naglo pogoršati i da će ih poslati "na sprat". "Na spratu" je smještena jedinica intenzivne bolničke njege iz koje su samo rijetki izvukli živu glavu. Dr Popov nadzire neprekidni priliv komplikovanih bolničkih slučajeva. Visok i nježnog srca, dr Popov nekim pacijentima dobacuje šale, a drugima citira Kanta. Neke od njegovih doskočica nisu pretjerano uspješne, ali u bolnici punoj užasnutih pacijenata on zrači ogromnom količinom ljudske toplote. Neočekivano, bolnica je puna svjetlosti i smijeha.

Ilian Metev je za svoj rad dobio više od 45 nagrada, uključujući nagrade festivala u Cannesu, Locarnu i Karlovym Varyma. Od 2019. godine radi kao predavač u Državnoj školi za film i televiziju Velike Britanije.

E Kyustendil, a sleepy town in the Bulgarian mountains, has been hard hit by Covid. In a close-knit community, patients meet former classmates in the same hospital room. Banter can often be heard in the corridors, but death is never far. Many patients live in constant fear of deteriorating quickly and being sent "upstairs." "Upstairs" is the intensive care unit, where only a handful are known to have survived. Presiding over the perpetual stream of complicated cases is Dr Popov. Tall and kind-hearted, for some he has a witty line, for others a quote from Kant. Some of them misfire, but through the quiet dread in the hospital, the doctor exudes a profusion of human warmth. Unexpectedly, light and laughter echo through the hospital halls.

Ilian Metev has recieved more than forty-five awards for his work, among them prizes from the Festival de Cannes, the Locarno Festival, and the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival. Since 2019, he has taught at the National Film and Television School in the United Kingdom.

Fortuna vendégei / U posjetu Fortuni / Paying a Visit to Fortuna

Sredovječni par Anikó i Laci žive u jednom malom mađarskom gradu. Prije nego što su 2013. na lutriji osvojili dva miliona eura, živjeli su u očajnim uslovima. Ipak, u dubokoj neimaštini, uspijevali su voditi stabilan život i često su sanjali o odmoru kraj mora. Nakon dobitka na lutriji, s rukom u ruci, i istinski zahvalni, prepustili su se, prema njihovom mišljenju, luksuznom životu. Za Laci to podrazumijeva “privilegiju nečinjenja”, a za Anikó “privilegiju činjenja” Dok nastoje ostvariti materijalnu sreću, njihov odnos se mijenja. Žena ne može razumjeti postupke svoga muža, a muž ne može prihvatiti svoju “novu” ženu. Ovaj film – koji prati radost i neočekivane probleme sa kojima se par susreće – moderna je bajka o pronalasku sreće.

Matyas Kalman diplomirao je medijski dizajn na Univerzitetu za umjetnost i dizajn Moholy-Nagy u Budimpešti. Radio je kao videonovinar za vodeći mađarski informativni portal i producirao brojne kratke dokumentarne filmove. Kalman je 2008. godine osvojio nagradu Kamera Hungária. Suosnivač je VJ Centruma u Budimpešti i predavač na DocuArt radionicama za razvoj medijskih projekata. Trenutno radi kao urednik videoprograma Mađarskog saveza za građanske slobode.

E Anikó and Laci are a middle-aged couple living in a small town in Hungary. Before winning two million euros in 2013, their circumstances were miserable. Still, they managed stability, living in deep poverty, often dreaming of a holiday by the sea. Once they hit the jackpot, hand in hand, truly full of gratitude, the couple dove into a life of what they considered luxury. For Laci, this means the “privilege of not doing,” while for Anikó this means the “power of doing.” On their way to realising material happiness, their relationship has changed. The wife doesn’t understand her husband’s behaviour, while the husband cannot accept his “new” wife. The personal story of the couple’s delight and unexpected difficulties is shown in this contemporary fable about finding happiness.

Matyas Kalman graduated as a media designer from the Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design in Budapest. He has worked as video journalist at the largest Hungarian news portal and produced numerous short documentaries, and won the Kamera Hungaria award in 2008. A co-founder of the Budapest-based VJ Centrum and a tutor at DocuArt ’s media project development workshop, currently he works for the Hungarian Civil Liberties Union as a Video Program Officer

Fragile Memory / Krhko sjećanje

Šezdesetih godina prošloga vijeka sovjetski snimatelj Leonid Burlaka radio je u Filmskom studiju

Odesa, gdje je snimio desetine filmova koji su obišli svijet. Danas, u devetoj deceniji života, on pati od Alzheimerove bolesti. Dok njegova sjećanja blijede, njegov unuk, mladi filmski autor Igor, prati trag koji je njegov deda ostavio iza sebe u rolnama filma, kućnim videima, pismima i zaboravljenim prijateljima. Što dublje uranja u arhiv, Igor postaje sve svjesniji da životna priča njegovog dede ima historijsku vrijednost. Burlaka je karijeru započeo u vrijeme kada su scenariji bivali odbacivani, a umjetnici cenzurisani, a proslavio se kao filmski snimatelj sredinom šezdesetih godina prošloga vijeka kada je sovjetska represija donekle popustila. Promjena na političkoj sceni zabilježena u njegovim djelima snažno povezuje Igora i Leonida jer obojica su se počeli baviti filmom u burnim vremenima. Ali vrijeme ističe: Leonid se uskoro više neće sjećati Igora.

Igor Ivanko rođen je 1992. u Odesi, u Ukrajini, a 2016. godine je magistrirao filmsku kameru na Državnom univerzitetu za pozorište, film i televiziju Karpenko-Kari u Kijevu. Od 2014. kao snimatelj sarađuje s dokumentarističkim rediteljskim kolektivom BABYLON’13, te je snimao proteste na trgu Majdan kao i rusko-ukrajinski rat. Njegov dokumentarni film KRHKA SJEĆANJA je 2022. godine osvojio specijalnu pohvalu na Filmskom festivalu DocAviv i specijalnu nagradu žirija Filmskog festivala u Krakovu.

E Soviet cinematographer Leonid Burlaka worked at the Odessa Film Studio in the 1960s on dozens of films that have travelled the world. Today, he is in his eighties and has been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease. As his memory fades away, his grandson, the young filmmaker Igor Ivanko, follows the tracks Burlaka left behind via film rolls, homemade videos, letters, and forgotten friends. As he dives deeper and deeper into the archive, Ivanko realises that the story of his grandfather has historical value. Burlaka started his career at a time when scripts were often rejected and artists were dealing with censorship, and established himself as a cinematographer in the mid-1960s, when Soviet repression finally began to relax. This political change is present in his works and also creates a strong bond between grandfather and grandson, since they both started working in cinema in times of turmoil. Yet the time is running out: soon Leonid will not remember Igor at all.

Igor Ivanko was born 1992 in Odessa, Ukraine. He is an alumnus of the Karpenko-Karyi Kyiv National University of Theatre, Cinema and Television, where he earned his master's degree in cinematography in 2016. Since 2014, he has collaborated as a cinematographer with the BABYLON’13 documentary filmmakers collective, filming during the Maidan protests and the Russo-Ukrainian war. In 2022, his documentary FRAGILE MEMORY was awarded with an Honorable Mention at the DocAviv Film Festival and a Jury Special Mention at Kraków Film Festival.

(dokumentarni film / documentary)

Još jedno proleće / Another Spring

JOŠ JEDNO PROLEĆE je "medicinski triler" konstruisan od pedeset godina starih arhivskih snimaka. Radnja filma se odvija u proljeće 1972. u trenutku kada se u Jugoslaviju, sa jednog bazara u Iraku, proširio smrtonosni virus velikih boginja. Virus se u zemlji širio čitavih mjesec dana prije nego što je na Kosovu zvanično registrovan prvi slučaj zaraze. U Beogradu epidemija nije otkrivena čak ni kada su prvi pacijenti počeli umirati. Velike boginje su najsmrtonosnija bolest u historiji čovječanstva, a samo u dvadesetom stoljeću uzrokovale su smrt gotovo 500 miliona ljudi. To je također i jedino virusno oboljenje koje su ljudi uspjeli iskorijeniti, što se smatra jednim od najvećih dostignuća ljudske civilizacije. Epidemija velikih boginja u Jugoslaviji i dalje se smatra jednim od najinspirativnijih i najstrašnijih poglavlja u priči koja je ujedinila čitav svijet. To je bila posljednja epidemija velikih boginja u Evropi.

Mladen Kovačević gaji poetični pristup ukorijenjen je u realističnoj jednostavnosti; njegovi filmovi jedinstvene dramske strukture, obilježeni njegovim nekonvencionalnim pristupom prirodnoj estetici, istražuju razne stilove. Filmovi Mladena Kovačevića prikazani su i nagrađeni na brojnim međunarodnim smotrama filma, uključujući Međunarodni filmski festival u Rotterdamu, festivale dokumentarnog filma u Amsterdamu, Leipzigu i Marseilleu, te festivale Visions du Réel, Hot Docs i CHP:DOX. Također su emitovani na televizijama širom svijeta.

E ANOTHER SPRING is a "medical thriller" reconstructed from fifty-year-old archival footage taken place in the spring of 1972, when the smallpox virus was brought into Yugoslavia from a bazaar in Iraq. The disease spread for a full month before it was discovered in Kosovo, while in Belgrade it remained undetected even when the first victims started dying. Smallpox, the deadliest disease in human history, killed nearly 500 million people in the twentieth century alone. It is also the only deadly virus humans have eradicated, a feat regarded as one of the greatest achievements of our civilization. In a story that united the entire world, the Yugoslavian smallpox epidemic is still remembered as one of the most horrifying and inspiring chapters. It was the final outbreak of the disease in Europe.

Mladen Kovačević’s poetic approach is rooted in the simplicity of realism; his films explore various styles with idiosyncratic dramatic structures and an unconventional approach to naturalistic aesthetics.

Liturgy of anti-tank obstacles / Liturgija protutenkovskih zapreka

Život u Ukrajini podijeljen je na dva perioda – prije i poslije početka rata. U svenarodnom pokretu otpora, svi građani pokušavaju biti korisni. Ukrajinci mijenjaju profesiju kako bi odgovorili na ratne potrebe. Kipari u svojim umjetničkim radionicama prave protutenkovske prepreke. Tihe figure slavnih Ukrajinaca, anđela, Kozaka i brojni primjerci Isusa Krista, baš poput vojske od terakote, zamrznuti su u iščekivanju novih kreacija.

Dmytro Sukholytkyy-Sobchuk je ukrajinski umjetnik i filmski stvaralac, a diplomirao je na Državnom univerzitetu za pozorište, film i televiziju I.K. Karpenko-Kari u Kijevu. Učestvovao je u Berlinale Talents programu i Filmskoj akademiji u Locarnu, te je osnivač platforme za scenarij Terrarium. Pažnju je privukao kratkim filmom WEIGHTLIFTER, koji je osvojio nagradu za najbolji kratki film na Filmskom festivalu u Angersu, Veliku nagradu Međunarodnog filmskog festivala u Varšavi, te je nominovan za nagradu Evropske filmske akademije. Svoj prvi dugometražni film PAMFIR razvio je uz podršku Torino Film Laba, Midpointa i Cinefondation programa Filmskog festivala u Cannesu. Film je 2022. godine uvršten u selekciju 15 dana autora festivala u Cannesu.

E Ukrainian reality is divided into two periods – before and after begining the war. In the nationwide resistance, every citizen tries to be helpful. Ukrainians change professions and adapt to wartime. Sculptors fabricate anti-tank obstacles in their workshops. Just like the Terracotta Army, silent figures of Ukrainian personalities, angels, Cossacks, and copies of Jesus Christ freeze in anticipation of new creations.

Dmytro Sukholytkyy-Sobchuk is a Ukrainian author and filmmaker. He graduated from the Kyiv National I.K Karpenko-Kary Theatre, Cinema and Television University. A past participant of Berlinale Talents and the Locarno Film Academy, he is the founder of the script platform Terrarium. He was first noticed with his short film WEIGHTLIFTER, a EFA contender, and the winner of the Best Short Film Award at the Angers European First Short Film Festival and the Grand Prix at the Warsaw International Film Festival. His first feature, PAMFIR, was developed at TorinoFilmLab, Midpoint, and the Cannes’ Cinefondation, and was selected for the Directors' Fortnight at the Festival de Cannes in 2022.

Muzej revolucije / Museum of the Revolution

“Vjetar se podigao tokom noći i otpuhao naše planove”, riječi su koje se pojavljuju na uvodnoj špici filma MUZEJ REVOLUCIJE. One se odnose na plan iz 1961. godine za izgradnju grandioznog muzeja posvećenog socijalističkoj Jugoslaviji u Beogradu. Izgradnja muzeja koji je trebao “čuvati istinu” o narodu Jugoslavije nikada nije odmakla dalje od podruma. Ruševni ostaci planiranog objekta sada pričaju sasvim drugačiju priču od one koju su tvorci ideje o izgradnji muzeja prije šezdeset godina imali na umu. U vlažnom, mračnom prostoru žive otpadnici od društva koje je izmijenio kapitalizam. Film se fokusira na djevojčicu koja zarađuje novac na ulici perući šoferšajbe automobila sa svojom majkom. Djevojčica i jedna starica, koja također živi u podrumu, bliske su prijateljice. U gradu koji se transformiše, tri žene pronalaze utočište jedna u drugoj.

Srđan Keča obrazovanje je stekao u Državnoj školi za film i televiziju Velike Britanje (NFTS) i u Ateljeu Varan. Od 2015. godine radi kao asistent profesora pri Odsjeku za umjetnost i historiju umjetnosti Univerziteta Stanford gdje predaje na magistarskom studijskom programu za dokumentarni film. Njegovi srednjemetražni filmovi PISMO OCU i MIRAGE prikazani su na vodećim festivalima dokumentarnog filma, dok su njegove videoinstalacije izlagane u okviru prestižnih kulturnih programa i u prestižnim kulturnim institucijama poput Venecijanskog bijenala arhitekture i galerije Whitechapel. Koristeći arhivske videosnimke, Keča je producirao i montirao dugometražni dokumentarni film FLOTEL EUROPA koji je 2015. godine premijerno prikazan na Međunarodnom filmskom festivalu u Berlinu te osvojio nagradu Tagesspiegel žirija.

E “The wind got up in the night and took our plans away,” reads the proverb in the opening titles of MUSEUM OF THE REVOLUTION. The words are a reference to the 1961 plan to build a grand museum in Belgrade as a tribute to Socialist Yugoslavia. Meant to “safeguard the truth” about the Yugoslav people, the plan never went beyond the construction of the basement. The derelict building now tells a very different story than that envisioned by the initiators sixty years ago. In the damp, pitchdark space live the outcasts of a society reshaped by capitalism. The film focuses on a girl who earns cash on the street by cleaning car windows with her mother, and who has a close friendship with an old woman who also lives in the basement. Against the background of a transforming city, the three women find refuge in each other

Srđan Keča is a graduate of the Ateliers Varan and the National Film and Television School in the United Kingdom. Since 2015, he has worked as Assistant Professor in the Department of Art and Art History at Stanford University, teaching in the MFA Documentary Film Programme. His mediumlength films A LETTER TO DAD and MIRAGE screened at leading documentary film festivals, while his video installations have been exhibited at venues like the Venice Biennale of Architecture and the Whitechapel Gallery. The found-footage feature-length documentary FLOTEL EUROPA, produced and edited by Keča, had its premiere at the 2015 Berlin International Film Festival, where it won the Tagesspiegel Jury Prize.

tebe u našem gradu nema mjesta

ZA TEBE U NAŠEM GRADU NEMA MJES TA uvodi nas u umove fudbalskih huligana iz najmanje prijateljskog grada u Bugarskoj – Pernika. Od nekada uspješnog centra rudarstva ostale su samo šale o grubosti njegovih stanovnika – odjek njihove slavne, herojske prošlosti pod zemljom. Autor Nikolay Stefanov kamerom u tišini prati Tsetsoa, skinheada i samohranog oca, vođu bande Dadu i jedinu ženu u grupi Mimetu, koji su odlučni pomoći svome timu da izađe iz zadnje lige. Njihov način života je ozbiljno doveden u pitanje kada se Tsetso razboli i provede mjesece u bolnici dok se propadajući grad suočava s ozbiljnim nedostatkom vode uzrokovanim korupcijom. Da li će se huligani silom prilika promijeniti i potražiti svoje mjesto pod suncem?

Nikolay Stefanov je magistrirao kinematografiju. Radeći kao filmski i televizijski snimatelj, esperimentisao je sa različitim vizuelnim stilovima i formama. ZA TEBE U NAŠEM GRADU NEMA MJES TA , film koji se bavi značajnim i osjetljivim društvenim temama, njegov je prvi dugometražni dokumentarac.

E NO PLACE FOR YOU IN OUR TOWN pulls us into the heads of the football hooligans from the most hostile city in Bulgaria Pernik. Once a flourishing mining centre, today all that’s left here are jokes about its citizens’ roughness an echo of their brave and glorious past. Having exclusive access to the inhabitants, Nikolay Stefanov’s film follows Tsetso, a skinhead and single father, the gang leader Dado, and Mimeto, the only woman in the group, who are devoted to helping their football team rise from the last league. Their customary lifestyle is seriously challenged when Tsetso falls ill and stays in the hospitals for months, while the decaying city faces a grave water crisis caused by corruption. Will the hooligans change in the face of the challenges, looking for their place under the sun?

Nikolay Stefanov holds an MA in cinematography. He has experimented with different visual styles and forms in his cinematography work for films, series, and television. Tackling important and sensitive social topics, NO PLACE FOR YOU IN OUR TOWN is his first feature-length documentary.

O Tahtai. Savendar tai Seiandar / Kalež. O sinovima i kćerima / The Chalice. Of Sons and Daughters

Peli i Nina pripadnici su tradicionalne romske zajednice koji su stupili u ugovoreni brak, a potom dobili žensko dijete. Međutim, prema lokalnom običaju, njih dvoje mogu ostati u braku samo ukoliko dobiju muško dijete koje će naslijediti porodični kalež (tahtai). Dok oni žive pod velikim pritiskom i neprekidno odlaze na testove plodnosti i ultrazvučne preglede, članovi njihovih porodica raspravljaju se oko prava na kalež koji je Pelijev otac povjerio Nininoj porodici kada su ugovorili brak. Nina je zbog toga pod ogromnim pritiskom, ali niko ne pokazuje suosjećanje zbog svega kroz što ona prolazi. Dok nestrpljivo čekamo rješenje spora, film nas poziva da razmišljamo o izdržljivosti žena u društvu kojim dominiraju muškarci.

E Peli and Nina are a couple from a traditional Roma community who were married by arrangement and are parents to a little girl. However, local custom posits that a marital union can only endure if the couple conceive a boy who can later inherit the family’s badge – the chalice (tahtai). While they live under tremendous strain and keep undergoing fertility and ultrasound checks, their respective families are disputing their rights to the chalice pledged by Peli’s father to Nina’s family when they arranged the couple’s match. This puts Nina under considerable pressure, but nobody around her is sympathetic to her plight. As we impatiently await the resolution of the conflict, the film invites us to reflect on women’s resilience in a male-dominated society.

Cătălina Tesăr teaches anthropology at the University of Bucharest, Faculty of Sociology, and works as a researcher at the National Museum of the Romanian Peasant in Bucharest. She earned her PhD in anthropology from University College London with a thesis about the sexual, economic, and political dimensions of early-age arranged marriages among the Cortorari Roma from Transylvania.

Retreat / Povlačenje

Tokom proteklih dvadeset godina hiljade mladih Makedonki i Makedonaca regrutovano je za rad u kuhinjama i perionicama u američkim vojnim bazama u Afganistanu i Iraku. Nakon što su se američke trupe prošlog ljeta povukle iz tih zemalja, oni su se vratili u domovinu, sa sobom donijeli brzo zarađeni novac i uskoro ga uložili u nekretnine. Ali također su donijeli i traumatične uspomene koje su ih trajno obilježile.

Anabela Angelovska studirala je vizuelne komunikacije na Akademiji za lijepe umjetnosti u Hamburgu, s usmjerenjem iz filmske i medijske filozofije. Od 2005. godine predaje na različitim umjetničkim akademijama i univerzitetima. Njeni filmovi i videoinstalacije, koji ispituju proces konstrukcije identiteta i kritički propituju identitarne reprezentacije, predstavljeni su u međunarodnim kulturnim institucijama i filmskim festivalima. Njen dokumentarni film HAKIE – HAKI. EIN LEBEN ALS MANN premijerno je prikazan u programu Perspektiva njemačko kino 65. izdanja Međunarodnog filmskog festivala u Berlinu.

E Over the past twenty years, thousands of young Macedonian women and men were recruited to work in the kitchens and laundries of US military bases in Afghanistan and Iraq. With the withdrawal of the US troops from Afghanistan last summer, the workers returned home, bringing with them quickly earned money that was soon invested in real estate – as well as traumatic memories that have marked them.

Anabela Angelovska studied visual communication with a major in film and media philosophy at the Academy of Fine Arts Hamburg. She has lectured at art academies and universities since 2005. Her films and video installations, which explore constructions of identity and take a critical look at representation, have been presented internationally at art institutions and film festivals. Her documentary HAKIE–HAKI. LIVING AS A MAN had its premiere in the Perspektive Deutsches Kino section at the Berlin International Film Festival in 2015.

Too Close

TOO CLOSE je intimni portret Andree, samohrane majke u četrdesetim godinama života, koja se suočila sa najvećim strahom svake žene. Sve je djelovalo poput romantične bajke kada se zaljubila u šarmantnog muškarca iz veoma ugledne lokalne porodice. U trenutku kada je taj muškarac ušao u njen život, Andrea je iza sebe već imala jedan razvod i samostalno je odgajala devetogodišnju kćerku. No ono što se činilo poput obećavajuće životne prekretnice pretvorilo se u noćnu moru: tokom naizgled savršene veze, partner, kojem je Andrea poklonila svoje apsolutno povjerenje, zlostavljao je njenu kćerku. Štaviše, dok je zlostavljanje trajalo, Andrea je zatrudnjela. Andrea je učinila sve što je mogla kako bi zaštitila svoju porodicu i privela zlostavljača pravdi. Njen bivši partner osuđen je na zatvorsku kaznu, ali nakon nekog vremena je oslobođen i vratio se živjeti u njihovom malom selu, i služeći se sramoćenjem i zastrašivanjem pretvorio Andrein život u noćnu moru.

Botond Püsök je filmski autor čiji su kratki igrani filmovi i dokumentarci prikazani na više međunarodnih filmskih festivala. S filmom ANGELA 2016. godine je osvojio nagradu za najbolju režiju na Međunarodnom filmskom festivalu Astra i na Filmskom festivalu DocuArt. Magistrirao je režiju dokumentarnog filma na Univerzitetu za pozorište i film SZFE u Budimpešti.

E TOO CLOSE is an intimate portrait of Andrea, a single mother in her forties, who faced every woman’s worst fear. It all began as a fairy-tale romance when she fell in love with a charming man from a well-respected local family. When the man entered her life, Andrea was divorced and raising her nine-year-old daughter alone. What seemed to be a hopeful shift turned out to be an ordeal: during their seemingly perfect relationship, her partner, the man Andrea trusted the most, was abusing her daughter. Moreover, while the abuse was taking place, Andrea became pregnant. She was carrying the perpetrator’s baby. Her life forever changed, Andrea did everything in her power to protect her family and bring the man to justice. Her ex-partner was imprisoned for his crime for some time but was released and moved back to their small village, where shaming and fear turned Andrea’s life into a nightmare.

Botond Püsök’s short fiction films and documentaries have been screened at several international film festivals. In 2016, he won the Best Director award at the Astra International Film Festival and the DocuArt Film Festival for his documentary ANGELA Püsök finished his master’s degree studies in documentary film directing at the University of Theatre and Film Arts, SZFE Budapest.

Hristove nevjeste / Diary of a Bride of Christ

Rediteljica filma Marta Smerechynska nakon šest godina razdvojenosti stupa u kontakt sa svojom sestrom Nastijom. Snima je u njenom novom domu – samostanu Hristovih nevjesti u zapadnoj Ukrajini. Martin odnos sa sestrom, koja se odrekla svjetovnih dobara kako bi prigrlila život u izolovanom samostanu, odražava odnos drugih porodica i njihovih kćeri koje žive u zatvorenoj vjerskoj zajednici. Za razliku od situacija u kojima razgovara sa svojom sestrom, Marta u razgovorima sa drugim opaticama – koje je doživljavaju kao tačku kontakta sa vlastitom prošlošću – slobodno govori o svojim emocijama. Film propituje njihov osjećaj gubitka, nerazumijevanje i osude. Osim što se bori sa pravilima samostana, Marta također ponovo otkriva vlastita uvjerenja i vrijednosti. U potrazi za odgovorima, Marta ponovo zavoli svoju sestru i njene družbenice, uprkos činjenici da su u životu odabrale potpuno različit put od njenoga.

Marta Smerechynska autorica je dokumentarnih filmova i glumica. Nakon što je 2019. godine diplomirala na Univerzitetu I. K. Karpenko-Kari u Kijevu, učestvovala je u studijskoj razmjeni s poljskofrancuskom filmskom akademijom Kinographe. Trenutno studira režiju dokumentarnog filma na Univerzitetu LaFemis u Parizu i priprema magistarski film u sklopu magistarskog studijskog programa DocNomads.

E Director Marta Smerechynska approaches her sister Nastia after six years of silence. She films Nastia’s life in a new home – a convent of the Brides of Christ located in Western Ukraine. Marta’s relationship with Nastia, who has renounced all her human possessions to become a part of this isolated world, reflects the experience of other families and their daughters inside the closed religious community Unlike when she is talking to her sister, Smerechynska manages to discuss her emotions and feelings freely with nuns, who see her as a point of connection to their past. The film explores their loss, misunderstandings, and judgments. Smerechynska not only struggles with the rules set by the nunnery but also rediscovers her own beliefs and values. Searching for answers, she rediscovers love for her sister and her companions throughout this journey, despite their paths taking very different directions.

Marta Smerechynska is a documentary filmmaker and actor. After graduating from the I. K. Karpenko-Kary University in Kyiv in 2019, she participated in the documentary filmmaking exchange with the Kinographe International Film Academy. Currently, she is a student of documentary directing at the Université d’été at La Fémis in Paris and is completing a master’s programme at DocNomads.

2021 – TSHODENNYK NARECHENOI CHRISTA / DIARY OF A BRIDE OF CHRIST (dokumentarni film / documentary)

Tvornica filmova / The Film Factory

Filmski esej o fotografiji, ispričan je kroz same fotografije, a prolazak vremena prikazivan je starenjem fotografskog materijala. Polazište filma su crno-bijele fotografije snimljene u zapuštenoj i ispražnjenoj tvornici Fotokemika, snimane isključivo na fotografskim materijalima koji su nekoć u toj tvornici i proizvedeni. Fotografije su dijelom standardne fotografske reprodukcije, a dijelom s vidnom greškom nastalom starenjem materijala. Istodobno, ovo je i priča o negativnoj strani tranzicije, propasti industrijalizacije i radničkog pokreta.

Sivlestar Kolbas je fotograf, snimatelj, reditelj te filmski pedagog. Rođen je 1956. godine. Diplomirao je filmsko i televizijsko snimanje na Akademiji dramske umjetnosti u Zagrebu. Danas je redovni profesor na istoj školi. Tokom karijere snimio više igranih i TV filmova, serija i dokumentarnih filmova, izlagao fotografije, te objavljivao i uređivao stručne radove iz područja snimanja. I dalje radi kao slobodni snimatelj. U autorskim dokumentarnim i eksperimentalnim filmovima, te fotografskim izložbama, često koristi autobiografsko ishodište, ali i problematizuje vizuelne medije.

E An essay film about photography, told through still photographs with the passage of time registered in the aging of the photographic materials. THE FILM FACTORY is grounded in black-and-white photographs of Fotokemika, an empty, neglected factory, captured entirely using the photographic materials once produced by the factory itself Most of the images in the film are standard photographic reproductions, some with visible damage due to the aging of the photographic material. At the same time, the film considers the negative side of transition, the failure of industrialisation, and labour movements.

Sivlestar Kolbas is a photographer, cinematographer, film director and educator born in 1956. He graduated after studying film and television cinematography from the Academy of Dramatic Arts in Zagreb, where he currently works as a tenured professor. Over the course of his career, he has authored numerous feature and television films, series, and documentaries; held photographic exhibitions; and published and edited expert publications on cinematography. He still works as a freelance cinematographer. In his auteur documentary and experimental films, as well in his still photography exhibitions, he often uses an autobiographical approach, but also problematises visual media.

Veće od traume / Bigger Than Trauma

Dvadeset i pet godina nakon Domovinskog rata u Hrvatskoj, žene koje su preživjele mučenja, silovanja i ubistva voljenih i dalje su traumatizirane. Film prati grupu polaznica trogodišnjeg terapijskog programa dok dijele svoje životne priče, suočavaju se s traumama prošlosti i tragaju za iscjeljenjem.

Uz jednu Srpkinju u grupi, pitanje nacionalnosti još je jedno breme koje će Katica, Ana i Marija morati zbaciti kako bi se okrenule budućnosti i ponovo prigrlile radost življenja. Ovaj film rezultat je autorske suradnje između dviju kolegice i prijateljice, Mirte Puhlovski i Vedrane Pribačić. I njih dvije su ostvarile suradnju na sličan način kao i protagonistice filma, kako u autorskom radu, tako i na radu na sebi tijekom programa osnaživanja. Upravo to zajedništvo među ženama dovelo je do (najboljih) rezultata.

Vedrana Pribačić je novinarka, rediteljica i scenaristica. Magistrirala je politologiju na Fakultetu političkih znanosti u Zagrebu. Od 2000. godine radila je kao televizijska novinarka i urednica za više televizijskih kanala (OTV, NOVA TV, RTL, CNN World View). Njen prvi, četrdesetpetominutni dokumentarni film, TVORNICA JE NAŠA!, osvojio je više nagrada na filmskim festivalima u Hrvatskoj, te je prikazan je na festivalima širom Evrope.

E Twenty-five years after the Croatian War of Independence, its women survivors have yet to heal. Still traumatised by their experiences of torture, rape, and the loss of their loved ones, several women go through a three-year therapeutic programme. While friction escalates along cultural lines, Katica, Ana, and Marija share their life stories, confront their traumas, and seek self-acceptance in order to find their inner strength and learn how to embrace the joy of life. This film is the result of a collaboration between two colleagues and friends, Mirta Puhlovski and Vedrana Pribačić. The two of them achieved cooperation in a similar way as the protagonists of the film, both in author's work and work on themselves during the empowerment program. It was the unity among women that led to the (best) results.

Vedrana Pribačić is a journalist, director, and screenwriter. She holds a master’s degree in Politics from the University of Political Science in Zagreb. She has been working as a television reporter and editor-in-chief since 2000 on various channels, including OTV, NOVA TV, RTL, and CNN World View. THE FACTORY IS OURS!, her first medium-length documentary for national television, was presented at several festivals in Europe and won awards from festivals in Croatia.

Uvod / Introduction

Kratkometražni filmovi važan su segment Sarajevo Film Festivala, pa je tako i Takmičarski program – kratki film bitan i relevantan program koji iz godine u godinu otkriva sve ono što će se tek u dugometražoj formi pojaviti, bilo da se radi o stilu, estetici, pogledu na svijet ili o autorima. Kratkometražna forma je oduvijek bila važan prostor za eksperimentisanje te se samim tim smatra važnom za, prije svega, mlade autore i nova otkrića.

Ove godine u Takmičarskom programu – kratki film bit će prikazano 10 ostvarenja koji se takmiče za nagradu Srce Sarajeva. Svi filmovi su inventivni, oslobođeni, te su samim tim i značajni za regionalnu kinematografiju. Program kratkog filma je odvijek bio jedan od najmlađih programa te samim tim inkubator za one generacije koje tek dolaze. Stvoriti prostor za te nove generacije oduvijek je bilo važno za Sarajevo Film Festival, i otkrivanje upravo tih novih talentovanih autorica i autora jedan je od osnovnih ciljeva festivala.

Svi filmovi se bave sadašnjicom i pozivaju nas na uzbudljivo putovanje u kojem ta sadašnjica poprima različite oblike. Filmovi su izuzetno iskreni u svojim stavovima, ali su također i oslobođeni ili slobodni u formi i načinu na koji pričaju svoje priče. Filmovi postavljaju važna pitanja, kao na primjer pitanja nasilja u filmu BANIJA, ili pitanja ženstvenosti i mladosti u filmovima ALBA VULVA i AFRIKAT, pitanje odgovornosti u ZAJEDNO, SAMI, temu prolaznosti u I TAKO JE ZAVRŠILO LJETO, homoseksualnosti u 5 POSLIJEPODNE NA MORU. Tu je, naravno, i pitanje rata i mira u filmu TIHO JE OVDJE, ili općenito ljudskog kontakta i dodira u filmu NA KSEROKSOVOM TRONU. U animiranom filmu NOVAC I SREĆA direktno i otvoreno se kritikuje materijalizam današnjeg kapitalističkog ustrojstva, dok se u animaciji NAOPAKO govori o ljubavi i gubitku na jedan ironičan i duhovit način.

I ovogodišnja selekcija s dva animirana i osam igranih kratkih filmova itekako nas priprema za budućnost. Filmovi su izuzetno raznovrsni po temama, načinima na koji se tretiraju narativi, po stilovima, po estetikama, po načinu na koji se tumače važna pitanja današnjice: pitanja identitea, kulture, pripadnosti, prolaznosti, gubitka, nepravde, i brojnih drugih relevantnih i gorućih pitanja sadašnjice. Predstavljamo Takmičarski program – kratki film s pet regionalnih, jednom međunarodnom i četiri svjetske premijere, dok iza ovih ostvarenja stoji pet autorica i sedam autora.

E Short films are an important element of the Sarajevo Film Festival, thus our Competition Programme – Short Film has been a relevant festival section that, year after year, has revealed glimpses of talent that will blossom fully in future long-form films, whether we are treated to a singular style, aesthetic, worldview, or auteur. The short form has always been an important space for experimentation and particularly for young auteurs and new discoveries.

This year, ten films will vie for the Heart of Sarajevo Award in the Competition Programme – Short Film – all of them inventive, liberated, and as such important for the cinema of the region. The programme has always been one of the festival’s youngest, in terms of the age of its participants, and so serves as an incubator for the up-and-coming generations of filmmakers. Creating space for them has always been an important part of the mission of the Sarajevo Film Festival, and discovering tomorrow’s talent is one of the festival’s main goals.

All the films in the selection this year deal with the present moment and invite us on exciting journeys in which our present takes different forms. Their messages are remarkably honest but they are also liberated, free, in terms of their form and approaches to storytelling, and they explore critical issues and pose important questions. MY NEIGHBOUR WOLF, for example, deals with the issue of violence, while ALBA VULVA and AFFRICATE ponder the concepts of femininity and youth. TOGETHER, ALONE poses questions around responsibility, THAT’S HOW THE SUMMER ENDED explores the transience of life, and 5PM SEASIDE deals with issues around being gay. The matter of war and peace has not been neglected, as it is the focus of IT IS QUIET HERE, and neither has the issue of human contact and touch in general, examined as it is in ON XERXES’ THRONE. The animated film MONEY AND HAPPINESS directly and openly criticises the materialism of the contemporary capitalist world, while another animated short, AMOK, talks about love and loss in an ironic and humorous way.

There is no doubt that the 2022 short film line-up is preparing us for the future. The films in the selection are varied in theme, approach to storytelling and style, aesthetics, and in the ways they deal with the burning issues of our time – among them issues of identity, culture, belonging, transience, loss, and injustice. The 2022 edition of the Competition Programme – Short Film will be the stage for five regional, one international and four world premieres and for its five female and seven male auteurs.

E Nikos sits and waits in his pick-up truck at the edge of a remote beach on his fortietth birthday. As she does every year, his mother calls and tells him about his birth. The weather is rough.

Today, Christos will fulfill Nikos’s dangerous wish.

Distopično radno mjesto na brodogradilištu u Perami. Zabrana fizičkog kontakta pretvorila je međuljudske interakcije u onostrane simulacije.

Suzbijanje dodira dovelo je do otuđenja među radnicima pretvarajući brodogradilište u napeti prostor odrođenosti i potisnute senzualnosti izvan okvira stereotipnih heteronormativnih čežnji.

Evi Kalogiropoulou je filmska rediteljica i vizuelna umjetnica koja radi u Atini i Londonu. Magistrirala je film na Kraljevskom koledžu za umjetnost. U svojim filmovima problematizira pitanja društvene uključenosti/ isključenosti, multikulturnog identiteta, uloge ženskih likova u staroj grčkoj mitologiji i postapokaliptičnih okruženja. Trenutno priprema svoj prvi dugometražni film CORA.

E At a dystopian workplace at the Perama shipyard, a ban on physical contact has turned human interaction into otherworldly simulations. The suppression of touch has alienated the workers’ communication, transforming the boatyard into a charged landscape of alienation and repressed sensuality beyond stereotypical heteronormative desires.

Evi Kalogiropoulou is a film director and visual artist working in Athens and London. She has a master’s degree in the moving image from the Royal College of Art. Her projects explore ideas associated with inclusion/ exclusion, cross-cultural identity, female figures in Ancient Greek mythology frames, and post-apocalyptic environments. She is currently developing her feature-length debut, CORA.

za

i pogreške / Space for Experiments and Blunders

Selekcija Takmičarskog programa – Studentski film zasigurno je jedna od najuzbudljivijih na festivalu. Studenti imaju potpunu slobodu da eksperimentišu i prave greške, ali i riskantne poteze koji ih često, kada su uspješni, izdvajaju iz mora stilski ili tematski sličnih ostvarenja. Iz tog razloga, greške i nedorečenosti u studentskim filmovima su često ono što otvara prostor u kojem se nazire originalna i kreativna misao, neizbrušena i ostavljena publici da u njoj prepozna potencijal. Sudeći po još jednoj generaciji autorica i autora, čije ćemo filmove gledati ove godine, autorskog potencijala zasigurno ne manjka, a riskantni potezi mogu se smatrati odista uspješnim.

Ovogodišnja selekcija Takmičarskog programa –Studentski film donosi nam jedanaest filmova: dva animirana, jedan eksperimentalni i osam kratkometražnih igranih filmova, od čega tri regionalne, četiri međunarodne i četiri svjetske premijere.

Selekcija bi se mogla podijeliti na dvije dominantne tematske cjeline. Prvi dio bavi se različitim manifestacijama nasilja: partnerskog, vršnjačkog, te nasilja u svijetu filma ili videoigrica, koje, ponovo, analogijom, upućuje na nasilje u stvarnom životu. Drugi dio je više kontemplativan i otvara raznolike unutarnje svjetove likova prožete na momente humorom, na momente osjećajem anksioznosti, ali i dozom melanholije.

Sve ovo refleksija je stvarnosti koja nas okružuje i time oblikuje i svjetonazorski usmjerava mlade autore. Nepokoravanje tom i takvom svijetu jasno je artikulisano u njihovim filmovima.

DRUGA STRANA ULICE Kalmana Nagyja iz Austrije i Mađarske i ČEKAJ ME OVDJE Alekse Borkovića iz Srbije dva su filma koja se na različite načine bave temom vršnjačkog nasilja. Dok u Borkovićevom filmu pratimo odnos dječaka i njegovog brata tokom jednog pustog ljetnog raspusta, gdje vršnjačko nasilje vreba iz potpune tišine i iza svakog ćoška, u filmu Kalmana Nagyja autor nas suptilno vodi u sve nijanse svijeta u kojem klasne razlike formiraju predrasude, a dječije nasilje se lako preliva u svijet odraslih.

Rumunski film MOJA SESTRA I JA Teodora

Ionite kamerna je drama o odnosu dvije sestre, suočene s nasilnim suprugom jedne od njih. Empatija ove dvije različite žene, u potpuno različitim životnim pozicijama, tkivo su koje ovaj film čini tako istinitim i snažnim.

U selekciji se našao i prvi eksperimentalni film, ali i prvi ukrajinski film u ovom programu, ANALOGIJA PROSTORA Oleksandra Hoisana. Autor koristi već postojeće okruženje videoigrice te, jednostavnim i efektnim postupkom mijenjanja fokusa s aktivnih na pasivne likove, donosi priču o okrutnoj indiferentnosti prema nasilju koje nas okružuje.

U filmu HOLLYWOOD Leni Gruber i Alexa

Reinera iz Austrije fokus je na mladoj glumici koja se suočava s nerazumijevanjem svoga oca prema njenom izboru karijere, dok, s druge strane, po ko zna koji put statira kao umirući čovjek ili leš. I upravo ovaj film je možda najbolja poveznica s drugom tematskom cjelinom jer dok, s jedne strane, vizuelno predstavlja nasilne prizore umiranja, s druge strane se fokusira na lik koji se suočava s važnim životnim dilemama i kontemplira nad svojom budućnošću.

Iako u potpuno drugačijoj poziciji, glavni lik u filmu MON AMI rumunske rediteljice Carine Dovseanu, koja se po drugi put vraća u Studentski program, također se suočava s nezadovoljstvom životom kojim živi. Sredovječni reditelj, sa prividno savršenim životom i mnoštvom sitnih nezadovoljstava koje ga kvare, olakšanje pronalazi u slučajnom prijateljstvu s mladim Romom koji u njemu budi želju za životom kroz jednostavne životne radosti.

Hrvatski film NIJE ZIMA ZA KOMARCE Josipa Lukića i Klare Šovagović vješto oscilira između igrane i dokumentarne forme i svojevrstan je nastavak postupka koji je Lukić primjenjivao u svojim ranijim studentskim filmovima. Svaki susret glavnog lika s drugim ljudima, pretvara se u beskonačni solilokvij o, naoko, banalnim temama, a sve sa pokušajem da se barem nakratko uspostavi veza sa onim drugim – bilo partnerom u sceni, ili gledateljem, te da se tako izađe iz zarobljeništva vlastite usamljenosti, koja baš tim naporom postaje još vidljivija i jača.

Još jedan film nam dolazi iz Hrvatske, MOJ

NIKOLA Martine Marasović, ujedno još jedna mediteranska priča, ovaj put o mladoj ženi koja se na vlastitoj svadbi suočava sa svojim strahom od intimnosti, te nemogućnošću da preko noći sazri i suoči sa represivnim očekivanjima duboko patrijarhalnog i tradicionalnog društva, te želeći da ga na silu ispoštuje, ruši sve njegove norme.

Film LUDILO mađarske rediteljice Bianke Szelestey premijerno je prikazan u programu La Cinef Filmskog festivala u Cannesu. Ovo je priča o prekidu i hipermneziji, ispričana iz vizure žene

koja, u nemogućnosti da kanališe cijelu bujicu osjećanja koje nosi situacija, ostaje fokusirana na detalje, poput dlake zalijepljene za staklo ili mrava koji hoda po stolu.

Selekciju zaokružuju dva u potpunosti različita animirana filma: PLUTAJUĆA MAGLA Nikolette Fabian iz Mađarske, koja 2D animacijom otvara prostor bazena kao prostor kontemplacije i sjećanja, te KIŠNI DJEČAK Sandre Marić, koja nam kroz animaciju lutaka od filca, donosi simpatičnu i jednostavnu ljubavnu priču.

Steve Tisch škola za film i televiziju na Sarajevo Film Festivalu će proslaviti 70 godina svog postojanja, predstavljanjem šest studentskih filmova njihovih alumnija, što je jedinstvena prilika da se vidi historijski razvoj njihove produkcije koja je iznjedrila neka od velikih svjetskih rediteljskih imena, a čiji bivši student Ari Folman je i ovogodišnji gost programa Suočavanje s prošlošću. Time u program nakon dvije godine vraćamo gostujuću filmsku školu, kao program van konkurencije i priliku da se regionalni studenti upoznaju sa studentskom produkcijom izvan regiona.

E The Competition Programme – Student Film is always one of the most exciting sections of the Sarajevo Film Festival. Students are free to experiment and make mistakes as well as to take risks that, when they result in success, help their work stand out in a crowd of stylistically or thematically similar films. It is thus that mistakes and loose ends in student films often create room for original and creative ideas, unpolished and left to the audience to recognise their potential. Judging by the new generation of auteurs whose films we present in this edition of our programme, we face no shortage of creative potential and the risk-taking that tends to lead to success.

The line-up of the 2022 Competition Programme – Student film programme comprises eleven titles, including two animated, one experimental and eight short films. Three of the films make their regional premieres, four have their international premieres, and another four are making their world premiere at Sarajevo.

The selection can be broadly divided into two dominant thematic sections. The first includes films that deal with different forms of violence: violence by partners, peer violence, and violence in the world of films and video games that implies, and is analogous to, violence in real life. The second embraces a group of films of a more

contemplative nature that focus on the interior universes of their protagonists, permeated by humour, occasional anxiety, and a trace of melancholy.

These films reflect the world we live in, which shapes and directs the young filmmakers. Their refusal to confirm to the rules of such a world is clearly articulated in their films.

THE OTHER END OF THE STREET by Austro-Hungarian director Kalman Nagy, and Serbian director Aleksa Borković’s WATER BALLOONS explore peer violence in diverse ways. While Borković’s film looks at the relationship between a boy and his elder brother during a lonely summer break, when the threat of peer violence looms in every corner, Nagy’s offers a subtle portrayal of a world in which the class divide feeds prejudice, while violence among children easily spills over into the adult world.

MY SISTER AND I by Teodora Ionite of Romania is a chamber drama about the relationship between two sisters as they confront the violent husband of one of them. The empathy of these two quite different women with completely different lives gives this film its power and an exceptional honesty.

THE ANALOGY OF SPACE by Oleksandr Hoisan is a double first: the first experimental and the first Ukrainian film selected for our programme. The auteur uses the existing world of a video game to shift focus, in a simple but effective way, from active to passive characters and to tell a story about the cruel indifference to violence that is permeating our world.

HOLLYWOOD by Leni Gruber and Alexa Reiner of Austria focuses on a young actress who grapples with her father’s lack of understanding for her choice of profession while playing her nth role of a dead or dying person. This film might be the best link between the thematic sections of the programme because it both includes scenes of violent death and maintains focus on its protagonist’s struggle as she confronts an important dilemma while contemplating her future.

Although from a completely different viewpoint, the main protagonist of MON AMI by Romanian director Carina Dovseanu, who returns to Sarajevo for a second time, is also grappling with dissatisfaction with his life. A middle-aged film director with a seemingly perfect life and a string of small grievances that disturb it finds comfort in a chance friendship with a young

Roma boy who awakens the older man’s desire for a life of small, simple pleasures.

IT’S NOT COLD FOR MOSQUITOES by Josip Lukić and Klara Šovagović from Croatia skilfully oscillates between narrative and documentary forms, and is something of an extension of the procedure employed by Lukić in his previous films. Its protagonist’s every encounter with other people turns into an endless soliloquy about seemingly banal issues, but it also helps the viewer to connect with “the Other” –whether an acting partner or a spectator – and break out of the prison of loneliness, which, as a result, becomes more obvious and pronounced.

The second Croatian film in the programme, Martina Marasović’s MY NIKOLA, also delivers a Mediterranean story, this time focused on a young woman who confronts her fear of intimacy at her wedding party and breaks all the norms of her deeply patriarchal and traditional society to force herself to face them.

CRAZE, by Hungarian director Bianka Szelestey, had its premiere in the Cinéfondation section of the Festival de Cannes. It is a story about breakup and hypermnesia, told from the perspective of a woman whose inability to channel a sea of emotions forces her to focus on details such as a strand of hair stuck on a window or an ant crawling across a table.

The selection is rounded by two vastly different animated films: RESTING FOG by Hungary’s Nikoletta Fabian, a 2D animation in which a swimming pool is presented as a space of contemplation and memories, and RAINBOY by Sandra Marić, a simple and charming love story featuring animated felt dolls.

The Steve Tisch School of Film and Television will celebrate its seventieth anniversary at the Sarajevo Film Festival by presenting six films by its former students, – a unique opportunity to observe the historic trajectory of its productions which birthed some of the world’s greatest film directors, amoing them Ari Folman, the guest of this year’s Dealing with the Past programme. After a two-year hiatus, our programme once again includes a sidebar section, where films produced by students at our guest film schools will be presented to allow film students from our region to acquaint themselves with student productions from farther afield.

Zbog dugotrajnog posmatranja neigrajućih likova, igrač svjedoči određenim dokumentarističkim događajima koji se odvijaju u različitim dijelovima svijeta igre. Događaje povezuju određene teme: pretjerana okrutnost i ljudska ravnodušnost. Konstantno kretanje jedini je spas od arbitrarnosti života na ulicama – ali ne uvijek.

Oleksandr Hoisan rođen je 2001. u Ivano-Frankovsku u Ukrajini. Redovni je student na Odjelu za filmsku i televizijsku umjetnost Nacionalnog univerziteta za kulturu i umjetnost u Kijevu. Hoisan je član nevladine organizacije

CUC (Moderni ukrajinski film), Udruženja mladih filmskih radnika Ukrajine i Udruženja ukrajinskih reditelja.

E Due to their long-term observation of NPCs (Non-Playable Characters), the player witnesses certain documentary events that take place in different parts of the in-game world. These events are permeated by common, cross-cutting themes: excessive cruelty and human indifference. Constant movement is the only salvation from arbitrariness on the streets – but not always.

Oleksandr Hoisan was born in 2001 in Ivano-Frankivsk, Ukraine. He is a full-time student at the Depertment of Film and Television Arts, Kyiv National University of Culture and Arts. Hoisan is a member of the NGO Contemporary Ukrainian Cinema – Association of Young Ukrainian Filmmakers, and of the Ukrainian Guild of Directors.

Eksperimentalni animirani film PLUTAJUĆA MAGLA kroz niz asocijativnih slika prikazuje proces oživljavanja uspomena i njihovu naknadnu dezintegraciju. Radnja filma smještena je u izmišljeni sanatorij, nalik snu, okružen morem i zrakama zalazećeg sunca. Bezlične sjene lutaju među zidovima tog skrivenog, zaboravljenog mjesta, čekajući da se rasplinu u okruženju kada padne noć i tako budu zauvijek izgubljene u magli zaborava.

Nikolett Fábián je dizajnerica animacije i studentica na postdiplomskom programu Univerziteta za umjetnost i dizajn Moholy-Nagy. Živi u Budimpešti.

E The experimental animated film RESTING FOG depicts the process of reliving a memory – and the disintegration that follows – through a series of associative images. The film takes place in a fictional, dreamlike sanatorium surrounded by the sea and the setting sun. Faceless shadows wander between the walls of a secluded, forgotten place, waiting to dissolve into their surroundings as darkness sets in, thus becoming permanently lost in a haze of oblivion.

Nikolett Fábián is an animation designer and a postgraduate student at the Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design. She lives in Budapest.

U fokusu / In Focus

Uvod / Introduction

Ovogodišnji program U fokusu predstavlja uzbudljivo putovanje – istovremeno zabavno, pustolovno i emotivno, a nadasve intelektualno – dok prikazuje svo bogatstvo i moć regionalne kinematografije i regionalnih autora. Selekcija donosi 7 filmova koji su u proteklih 12 mjeseci ostvarili značajne uspjehe na filmskim festivalima.

Reditelj Stefan Arsenijević predstavlja nam film STRAHINJA BANOVIĆ kao savremenu reinterpretaciju velikog srpskog ljubavnog epa u čijem sjedištu su izbjeglice. Kada ih iz Njemačke deportiraju u Srbiju, ganski bračni par Strahinja i Ababuo različito se nose s novim okolnostima. Dok Strahinja zadovoljno gradi nogometnu karijeru, strastvena Ababuo nema iste mogućnosti ostvarenja svojih ambicija te se priključuje grupi sirijskih izbjeglica na putu u Zapadnu Europu. Ostavši sam, Strahinja kreće na odiseju balkanskom rutom kako bi je pronašao. Film je u Karlovym Varyma osvojio niz nagrada, uključujući onu za najbolji film i glumca. Film prvenstveno donosi priču o tome da čovjek ne može uspjeti sam, ali prikazuje i svo licemjerje današnjeg društva u odnosu spram ljudi koji, bježeći od rata i bijede, traže bolji život.

Rumunski film ČUDO, inače treći film reditelja Bogdana Georgea Apetrija, premijerno je prikazan na Međunarodnom filmskom festivalu u Veneciji prošle godine. Film dijeli osnovne odlike rumunskog novog talasa: žanrovski je oblikovan kao detektivska priča koja se razvija od sasvim obične dramske situacije. Ovo je mračni portret društva s dugim i digresivnim razgovorima među likovima, ali istovremeno i kriminalistička drama u kojoj jedan detektiv pokušava istražiti slučaj silovanja.

Debitant Christos Massalas predstavlja nam se filmom BROADWAY, premijerno prikazanim na festivalu u Rotterdamu, a koji se poigrava kodovima trilera, mjuzikla i socijalne drame. Radnja filma smještena je u Atini usred ekonomske krize, dok sam film predstavlja zabavno, ali okrutno ogledalo savremenog društva. Film je hibridna mješavina energične priče, neobičnog film noira, u čijem središtu je ljubavna priča, ali i priča o slobodi.

U filmu GENTLE, mađarskog rediteljskog dvojca Anne Eszter Nemes i Lászlóa Csuja, glavna junakinja je bodibilderska šampionka koja nas magnetično uvodi u svijet mišića i snage. U svijetu elitnog ženskog bo-

dibildinga, postoji prostor za nježnost, a upravu tu stranu glavne junakinje Edine upoznajemo tokom njenih priprema za takmičenje. Njena potraga za nemogućim tijelom ugrozit će njenu slobodu, a to će tek spoznati kada se otisne u svijet eskorta da bi zaradila novac za svoju strast. Film je premijerno prikazan na Filmskom festivalu u Sundanceu, a nakon toga i na festivalu u Berlinu.

Na Međunarodnom filmskom festivalu u Berlinu u glavnoj konkurenciji našao se i RIMINI, novi film kultnog austrijskog reditelja Urlicha Seidla. Seidl ovaj put donosi priču o starenju iz tačke gledišta ostarjelog hotelskog pjevača koji je karijeru ostvario pjevajući njemačkim i austrijskim turistima po hotelima Riminija, a sanjajući o karijeri velike zvijezde. Glavni junak Ritchie Bravo nije samo pjevač, on je i žigolo, dok također i iznajmljuje svoju kuću turistima oslanjajući se na staru slavu pjevača pop-balada. U ovom filmu Seidl iznenađuje emocijama jer se ne libi razgolititi glavnog junaka, koji je drag baš onoliko koliko i iritantan.

BUTTERFLY VISION debitanta Maksima Nakonechnyja je ukrajinski film premijerno prikazan na Filmskom festivalu u Cannesu u selekciji Izvjestan pogled. Riječ je o drami izazovnoj za gledanje zbog samog ratnog sadržaja, a u kojoj pratimo priču bivše ratne zarobljenice, silovane u zatočeništvu. Film je izuzetno kritičan, propitivački, dubok a govori o užasu rata bez obzira na kojoj se strani junaci nalaze.

Poznati rumunski reditelj Cristian Mungiu će ove godine predstaviti novi film MAGNETNA REZONANCA koji je premijerno prikazan u konkurenciji Filmskog festivala u Cannesu. Mungiu se i ovaj put hvata u koštac sa važnom i aktuelnom temom rasizma i diskriminacije donoseći priču o malom mjestu u kojem posao u lokalnoj velepekari nalaze dva imigranta. Stanovnici mjesta, inače naseljenog Mađarima i Rumunima, prijete da će prestati kupovati hljeb kojeg su mijesile migrantske ruke, a u cijelu priču se upetljava i lokalni svećenik. Film je gruba kritika ne samo rumunskog nego i zapadnoevropskog društva općenito.

Ovih sedam filmova predstavljaju dobar presjek stanja regionalne kinematografije, tema koje opsjedaju scenariste i reditelje, ali su i dobar uvid u svu raznolikost kinematografija ovog dijela svijeta.

E The 2022 In Focus programme is an entertaining, adventurous, emotional and, more than anything, intellectual journey spotlighting the richness and power of regional film and filmmakers. It brings together seven films that achieved notable success at film festivals around the world over the past twelve months.

Serbian director Stefan Arsenijević presents his AS FAR AS I CAN WALK, a modern interpretation of a medieval epic poem in which contemporary refugees take the place of Serbian national heroes. After they are deported from Germany, Ghanaian couple Strahinja and Ababuo confront their new reality in disparate ways. While Strahinja happily pursues his football career, his fiery wife has no similar opportunity to achieve her ambitions, so she joins a group of Syrian refugees on their way to Western Europe. To find her, Strahinja embarks on a perilous journey along the so-called Balkan route. The film, which won a string of awards at Karlovy Vary, including the Best Film and Best Actor prizes, sends a message that humans cannot succeed alone, while also shedding light on the hypocrisy with which modern society treats those who flee war and misery in pursuit of a better life.

Romanian director Bogdan George Apetri’s third feature, MIRACLE, which had its premiere at the Venice International Film Festival last year, has all the features of the Romanian New Wave. A grim social drama with long, digressive dialogue, it is at the same time a detective procedural about a police detective’s rape investigation.

Christos Massalas presents his debut feature BROADWAY, a thriller that blends romance and social realism. Set in Athens in the grip of an economic crisis, the film serves as an entertaining but cruel mirror of contemporary society – a hybrid mix of energetic story and offbeat film noir, at the centre of which is a story about love and freedom.

The main subject of GENTLE, by Hungarian directing duo Anne Eszter Nemes and László Csuja, is a magnetic bodybuilding champion who takes us into the world of muscles and power. In the world of elite female bodybuilding, there is room for gentleness, and the film explores the gentle side of Edina as she prepares for a competition. Edna’s pursuit of the

perfect body threatens her freedom, something she does not recognise it until she goes into the escort business to earn money to support her passion. GENTLE had its premiere at the Sundance Film Festival and was also screened at the Berlinale.

RIMINI, the new film by Austrian director Urlich Seidl – always a favourite of cult audiences –also premiered at Berlin. It is a story about aging as seen by an elderly lounge singer who built his career entertaining German and Austrian singers in hotels in Rimini while dreaming about becoming a big star. Ritchie Bravo is not just a singer; he is also a gigolo who rents his house to tourists while relying on his old glory as a performer of pop ballads. It is a surprisingly emotional film by Seidl, who does not refrain from taking a close look at his protagonist, who is as charming as he is irritating.

BUTTERFLY VISION, the feature directorial debut by Ukrainian director Maksim Nakonechny, had its premiere in the Un Certain Regard programme of the Festival de Cannes. It is a tough watch, because of both its war setting and its story about a former prisoner of war and rape survivor. It is a critical, probing story about the horrors war inflicts on all sides of the conflict.

Celebrated Romanian director Cristian Mungiu’s new feature R.M.N premiered in the Official Competition at Cannes. Once again, Mungiu explores topical issues of racism and discrimination via a story about two migrants earning their living in a small-town bakery. The townspeople, mostly ethnic Hungarians and Romanians, threaten to stop buying bread made by migrants, forcing the local priest to step in. The film sharply criticises not only Romanian but also Western European society more broadly.

These seven films provide a good overview of contemporary regional cinema and the themes currently capturing regional scriptwriters and directors, as well as delivering insight into the diversity of film production in this part of the world.

Nakon nekoliko mjeseci provedenih u zarobljeništvu u Donbasu, ukrajinska stručnjakinja za zračno nadgledanje Lilja vraća se kući svojoj porodici. Ipak, traumatično iskustvo zatočeništva nastavlja da je muči i prikazuje joj se na načine slične snu. Nešto raste duboko u Lilji i ne dopušta joj da zaboravi, ali ona odbija da se identifikuje kao žrtva i odlučna je boriti se u oslobađanju traume. VIZURA LEPTIRA teško je i pravovremeno svjedočanstvo o ukrajinskim ratnicima i ženama koje se bore za vlastiti integritet, slobodu i budućnost.

Maksym Nakonechnyi ukrajinski je reditelj i producent. Diplomirao je režiju na Državnom univerzitetu za pozorište, film i televiziju u Kijevu.

Njegov debitantski dugometražni igrani film VIZURA LEPTIRA premijerno je prikazan u programu Izvjestan pogled Filmskog festivala u Cannesu.

E After spending months as a prisoner in Donbas, Ukrainian aerial reconnaissance expert Lilia returns home to her family. The trauma of captivity, however, continues to torment her, and it surfaces in dreamlike ways. Something growing deep within Lilia will not allow her to forget, yet she refuses to identify as a victim and will fight to liberate herself. BUTTERFLY VISION is a harsh and all-too-timely testimony to the warriors of Ukraine and the women fighting for their integrity, their freedom, and their future.

Maksym Nakonechnyi is a Ukrainian director and producer. He received a degree in directing from the Karpenko-Kary Kyiv National University of Theatre, Cinema and Television.

Nelly je pobjegla od svoje bogate, kontroli sklone porodice. Dok pleše u striptiz-klubu, upoznaje Markosa, sitnog, ali harizmatičnog gangstera, koji joj pomaže pobjeći od poslušnika njenoga očuha. Markos uskoro postaje njen zaštitnik i ljubavnik. Vodi je u Broadway, napušteni zabavni kompleks u Atini, koji je naselila mala zajednica plesača, skitnica i lopova i jedan zarobljeni majmun. Neko vrijeme, život u zajednici je dobar, čak i kada Broadway ugosti misterioznog muškarca, ranjenog i umotanog u zavoje, kojeg najopasniji pripadnici atinske mafije žele vidjeti mrtvog. Međutim, nakon što je Markos uhapšen i zatvoren, novopridošli muškarac neočekivano preuzima značajnu ulogu u zajednici.

Christos Massalas rođen je 1986. u Grčkoj. Teoriju filma studirao je na Univerzitetu Kingston u Londonu, a film u Londonskoj školi filma. Radio je na filmu, u pozorištu i na muzičkim videospotovima.

BROADWAY je njegov prvi dugometražni igrani film.

E Nelly has escaped from her wealthy and controlling family. As a dancer in a strip club, she meets Markos, a minor yet charismatic gangster, who helps her run away from her stepfather’s henchmen. Markos soon becomes Nelly’s protector and lover. He brings her to Broadway, Athens, an abandoned entertainment complex squatted by a small community of dancers, tramps, thieves, and a captive monkey. For a while, everything goes well, even when Broadway hosts a mysterious man, injured, covered in bandages, and wanted dead by the most dangerous mafiosi in Athens. However, when Markos is arrested and imprisoned, this newcomer will take an unexpectedly important place in the gang.

Christos Massalas was born in Greece in 1986. He studied film theory at Kingston University, London, and filmmaking at the London Film School. He has worked in film, music video, and theatre.

Miracol / Čudo / Miracle

Podijeljen u dva dijela, film ČUDO prati mladu opaticu Cristinu dok se iskrada iz svoga izolovanog manastira kako bi se pozabavila hitnim poslom. Njeno enigmatično putovanje vodi je širom grada, ali naizgled je u nemogućnosti riješiti svoj problem i pronaći muškarca za kojim traga. Ostavljena bez opcija, Cristina se uveče vraća u manastir, ali usput je stiže neočekivana sudbina. Drugi dio filma prati Mariusa Predu, odlučnog policijskog detektiva koji pokušava shvatiti šta se dogodilo Cristini. Marius prati Cristinino putovanje, korak po korak, posjećujući sva mjesta koja je i ona posjetila. Njegova istraga ga navodi na tragove i otkrića koji ne samo da rasvjetljavaju nezamislivu istinu iza Cristininih misterioznih postupaka već, moguće, i istinsko čudo.

Bogdan George Apetri rumunski je filmski autor rođen 1976. u Piatra Neamtu. Apetri je 2010. režirao film PERIFERIC, koji je prikazan i nagrađen na brojnim prestižnim filmskim festivalima, a devet godina kasnije film NEIDENTIFICAT, s kojim je osvojio Specijalnu nagradu žirija na Međunarodnom filmskom festivalu u Varšavi. ČUDO je njegov treći dugometražni film. Kao producent u Sjedinjenim Američkim Državama, Apetri je producirao brojne filmove koji su nagrađeni na Filmskom festivalu Sundance, uvršteni u zvanični program Filmskog festivala u Cannesu i drugih vodećih festivala, te distribuirani širom svijeta. Predaje režiju na Univerzitetu Columbia u New Yorku.

E In the first of its two chapters, MIRACLE follows Cristina, a young nun, as she sneaks out of her isolated convent to attend to an urgent matter. Her enigmatic journey takes her all around town but she is seemingly unable to solve her problem or find the man she is looking for. Out of options, she meets an unexpected fate in the evening on her way back to the convent. The second part of the film deals with Marius Preda, a determined police detective who is trying to determine what happened to Cristina. He retraces her journey through all the places she visited, step by step. His investigation uncovers clues and revelations that lead not only to the unfathomable truth behind Cristina’s mysterious actions but also, possibly, to an actual miracle.

R.M.N. / Magnetna rezonanca

Nekoliko dana uoči Božića, nakon što je dao otkaz na svome radnom mjestu u Njemačkoj, Matthias se vraća u svoje multietničko selo u Transilvaniji. Želi biti više uključen u obrazovanje svoga sina Rudija, kojeg je predugo ostavio na brigu sinovljevoj majci Ani, te osloboditi dječaka strahova koji su ga ophrvali. Zauzet brigom o svom starom ocu Ottu, Matthias je željan ponovno vidjeti svoju bivšu ljubav, Csillu. Kada mala tvornica kojom Csilla upravlja uposli nove radnike, mir lokalne zajednice biva poremećen, otkrivajući strahove koji obuzimaju njene odrasle članove. Strahovi uzrokuju erupciju sukoba i strasti koji probijaju kroz tanki veo njihovog navodnog međusobnog razumijevanja i mira.

Cristian Mungiu rođen je 1968. u Iaşiju, Rumunija. Njegov prvi dugometražni film ZAPAD premijerno je prikazan 2002. godine u programu Quinzaine des réalisateurs u Cannesu i osvojio je veliku naklonost publike u Rumuniji. Njegov naredni dugometražni film 4 MJESECA, 3 SEDMICE I 2 DANA osvojio je Zlatnu palmu u Cannesu, a više međunarodnih udruženja filmskih kritičara ga je proglasilo najboljim filmom godine. Film je također osvojio i nagrade za najbolji film i najboljeg reditelja Evropske filmske akademije. Mungiu se vratio u Cannes kao scenarista, producent i jedan od reditelja omnibusa PRIČE IZ ZLATNOG DOBA, te kao scenarista i reditelj filma IZA BRDA, koji je nagrađen za najbolji scenarij i najbolju glumicu. Sa svojim trećim filmom predstavljenim u Cannesu, MATURA, osvojio je nagradu za najboljeg reditelja.

E A few days before Christmas, having quit his job in Germany, Matthias returns to his multi-ethnic Transylvanian village. He wishes to involve himself more in the education of his son, who he feels has been left for too long in the care of his wife Ana, and to rid the boy of the unresolved fears that have taken hold of him. Matthias is preoccupied with his elderly father, and eager to see his ex-lover, Csilla. When a few new workers are hired at the small factory Csilla manages, the peace of the community is disturbed, underlying fears grip the adults, and frustration, conflict, and passion erupt through a thin veneer of apparent understanding and calm.

Cristian Mungiu was born in Iaşi, Romania, in 1968. His debut feature film, WEST, premiered in the Directors’ Fortnight at the Festival de Cannes in 2002 and was an audience hit in Romania. His second feature, 4 MONTHS, 3 WEEKS AND 2 DAYS was awarded the Palme d’Or in Cannes. The film later received several Best Film of the Year awards from various international associations of film critics, and won the European Film Academy Awards for Best Film and Best Director. Mungiu returned to Cannes as a writer-producer-codirector with the collective episodic film TALES FROM THE GOLDEN AGE, and as a writer-director with BEYOND THE HILLS – which took the awards for Best Screenplay and Best Actresses. GRADUATION, his fifth film presented in Cannes, won the award for Best Director.

Rimini

Richie Bravo, nekadašnja pop-zvijezda, provodi zimu u Riminiju, pokušavajući obnoviti staru slavu. Svoj raskalašeni način života i ovisnost o kocki finansira održavajući koncerte gomilama turista i pružajući seksualne usluge svojim obožavateljicama. Njegov svijet počinje da se ruši kada mu se u život iznenada vrati njegova odrasla kći, zahtijevajući novac koji joj on nikada nije dao. U međuvremenu, njegov ostarjeli otac, koji pati od demencije, neprekidno hoda ukrug u staračkom domu u Austriji.

Ulrich Seidl rođen je 1952. u Beču, Austrija. Studirao je film na Filmskoj akademiji u Beču. Prije nego se posvetio režiji igranih filmova, Seidl je režirao nagrađivane dokumetarce.

Film je inspirisan epskom pjesmom “Banović Strahinja“, u kojoj savremeni afrički migranti zauzimaju mjesta srpskih nacionalnih junaka.

Dok Strahinja zadovoljno gradi nogometnu karijeru, strastvena Ababuo nema iste mogućnosti ostvarenja svojih ambicija te se priključuje grupi sirijskih izbjeglica na putu u Zapadnu Evropu. Ostavši sam, Strahinja kreće na odiseju balkanskom rutom kako bi je pronašao.

Edina, dizačica tegova, spremna je žrvovati sve za san koji dijeli sa svojim životnim partnerom i trenerom Adamom: osvojiti svjetsko prvenstvo u body buildingu. Skupi steroidi i dodaci prehrani prisiljavaju Edinu da se počne baviti dodatnim poslom kao escort dama. Novi doživljaj želje i čudna ljubav, koju usput iskusi, navode je da otkrije razliku između njenih snova i njene prave ličnosti.

Anna Nemes diplomirala je na Mađarskom univerzitetu likovnih umjetnosti na koji se vratila kao istraživačica na doktorskom programu.

E Edina, a female bodybuilder, is ready to sacrifice everything for the dream she shares with her life partner and trainer Adam: to win the world championship. Expensive steroids and supplements force Edina to take a side gig as an escort. New forms of desire and the odd love she finds on her way make her see the difference between her dreams and her true self.

Pretpremijere Serije / Avant Premiere Series

/ Sixth Edition of Avant Premiere: Six Television Series from Four Countries from the Region

Igrane serije prikazane na prethodnim izdanjima Pretpremijera Serija zabilježile su uspjehe na domaćem i na međunarodnom tržištu. Neke od njih stručni žiri nominirao je za ovogodišnje nagrade Srce Sarajeva koje s nestrpljenjem očekujemo.

Regionalna produkcija je u porastu. Serija KLJUN, iz prošlogodišnje selekcije Pretpremijere Serije, bila je prva serija s ovih prostora u selekciji prestižnog Međunarodnog festivala serija Canneseries, gdje je osvojila je nagradu publike. Početkom godine imali smo dvije serije na Berlinale Series Marketu, dok smo na francuskom festivalu Series Mania predstavili nove serije s našeg tržišta.

Sve originalnije priče i komercijalni potencijal domaće produkcije, donijeli su promjene na tržištu Isto tako, danas se uz nacionalne televizije, kao investitori u gotovo svim zemljama regije pojavljuju i vodeći regionalni telekomunikacijski operateri.

U ovogodišnjoj selekciji s ponosom predstavljamo rekordan broj od čak šest serija iz četiri zemlje regije. Različite su tematski, stilski i žanrovski. No, bilo da ste ljubitelji krimića, komedije, misterije ili jednostavno drame sa suvremenom tematikom, sigurno ćete pronaći bar jednu seriju koja će vas oduševiti.

S velikim veseljem program Pretpremijera otvaramo bosanskohercegovačkom serijom KOTLINA oskarovca Danisa Tanovića i Amre Bakšić Čamo. Originalnu i slojevitu seriju o usamljenom policijskom inspektoru (Feđa Štukan) koji istražuje ubistvo u Zemaljskom muzeju, režirali su Danis Tanović i Aida Begić. Na scenariju su, uz kreatore serije, radili i Nikola Kuprešanin i Adnan Lugonić. U ovoj žanrovskoj krimi seriji ističe se vrijednost autohtonog, kulturnog identiteta, a istovremeno je to univerzalna priča koju nose jaki karakteri. KOTLINA je prva serija nastala u okviru BH Content Lab platforme BH Telecoma.

Još jedna serija u produkciji RTV Slovenija ponovo je u našem programu, ovaj put riječ je o seriji TRIGRAD, televizijskom prvencu filmske rediteljice Sonje Prosnec koja, zajedno s Ninom Zupančič i Gregorom Fonom, potpisuje i scenarij. U ovoj mistery drami rediteljica nas vodi sve dublje u šumu i na vrlo poetski način ulazi u polje mitskog i zabranjenog. Zanimljivi i neobični likovi bude znatiželju, a glavne uloge imaju nagrađivani slovenski glumci Katarina Stegnar i Marko Mandić.

Iz Srbije, trenutno najproduktivnije zemlje regije, premijerno prikazujemo tri dramske serije, od kojih se dvije bave temom glume, života i snova glumaca. Dobitnik prošlogodišnjeg Srca Sarajeva za najbolju TV-seriju Bojan Vuletić, ove godine dolazi u naš program sa serijom PAD, za koju, zajedno sa Petrom Mihajlovićem, potpisuje scenarij i koju režira. Serija je nastala po motivima autobiografske knjige Žarka Lauševića, jednog od najpoznatijih glumaca bivše Jugoslavije. Ne slučajno, glavnu ulogu u ovoj seriji ima baš jedan od trenutno najzapaženijih srpskih glumaca mlađe generacije Milan Marić. Reditelj istražuje glumačku snagu i krhkost, ali vjerno prikazuje i mračnu stranu Srbije devedestih godina, korumptivno sudstvo i sumnjive likove.

U naš program s drugom sezonom humoristične serije MAMA I TATA SE IGRAJU RATA vraća se kreator, reditelj i producent Gordan Kičić. Scenarij potpisuju Gvozdan Đurić i Marko Manojlović, a na pisanju je sarađivao i Kičić. Prva sezona serije prati Veljka, beogradskog glumca, koji sanja o tome da dobije veliku ulogu i da postane poznat. U drugoj sezoni Veljkova želja postaje stvarnost. Scenarij ove porodične sage je pun peripetija i duhovitih likova koji kontinuirano iznenađuju i zabavljaju.

Kao pogled u budućnost u programu prikazujemo i srpsku seriju U KLINČU, koju posebno pozdravljamo jer su kod nas serije s mladima i za mlade vrlo rijetke. Kreatori serije su Aljoša Ćeranić i Miloš Avramović, a režirali su je Danilo Bećković i Nebojša Radosavljević. Glavnu ulogu ima Mihajlo Veruović, poznatiji kao Vojaž. Uz Vojaža i Đorđu Mišina tu su i mlade glumice Anita Ognjanović, Teodora Dragićević (prošle smo je godine gledali u seriji NEČISTA KRV) i Ivana Zečević koja je, kao zvijezda u usponu, na 27. Sarajevo Film Festivalu nagrađena Srcem Sarajeva. Uz etablirane glumce u ulogama roditelja, u ovoj seriji svjedočimo dolasku jedne sjajne generacije mladih glumaca.

METROPOLITANCI je dramska obiteljska serija s velikim brojem poznatih hrvatskih glumačkih imena, poput Renea Bitorajca, Dejana Aćimovića, Gordana Grgića, Linde Begonje, Nataše Janjič, Veljka Volarića Popovića i mnogih drugih. Kreator, glavni scenarist i producent serije je Dario Vince, a režirao ju je Igor Šeregi. Serija je nastala tokom pandemije i nakon potresa koji su zadesili Hrvatsku. Iako je priča potresna i motivirana istinitim događajima, radnja je vedra i likovi često humoristični.

Šesto izdanje Pretpremijera sa šest dramskih serija iz četiri zemlje regije

Sarajevo Film Festival konstantno ulaže u razvoj dramskog serijskog programa u regiji, putem CineLink Drama festivalske platforme za razvoj visokokvalitetnih dramskih serija sa područja bivše Jugoslavije, programa Pretpremijere Serije i dodjelom Srca Sarajeva za televizijske serije.

Za ljubitelje serija, program Pretpremijere Serije je fantastična prilika da na velikom ekranu premijerno pogledaju prve dvije epizode ovih šest serija iz regije koje ćemo na televiziji gledati tek u nadolazećoj jesenskoj i zimskoj sezoni. Glumce i ekipe svih serija možete bolje upoznati kroz razgovore uživo svaki dan na festivalskom trgu u okviru Press Cornera.

Dramske serije u programu Pretpremijere Serije takmiče se za Unicredit nagradu publike, te direktno ulaze u uži izbor za nominacije za nagrade Srca Sarajeva za TV-serije koje će biti dodijeljene na 29. Sarajevo Film Festivalu.

Dođite, pratite nas i glasajte za svoje favorite, pred nama je uzbudljiva i raznovrsna selekcija!

E The television drama series screened in the previous editions of the Avant Premiere Series programme achieved notable success in regional and international markets. Some have been nominated by a jury of professionals for the 2022 Heart of Sarajevo Awards, which we eagerly anticipate.

Regional production is on the upswing. AWAKE, screened in Avant Premiere last year, was the first drama series from our region to be selected for the prestigious Canneseries festival, where it won the Audience Award. At the start of this year, two of the series we presented featured in the Berlinale Series Market, and we also presented new television series from our region in the French Series Mania festival.

Increasingly original stories and commercial potential are reshaping the market. Along with national television broadcasters, the leading telecommunication operators in almost all the countries of our region are coming on board as financiers.

The result of this boom is reflected in the lineup of this year programme, in which we proudly present a record number of six drama series. They differ in theme, style, and genre but, regardless of whether viewers like crime, comedy, mystery, or drama, they will find something to impress them in the selection.

It is with great our happiness that the programme kicks off with a screening of THE HOLLOW, created by Academy Award-winning Bosnian director Danis Tanović and producer Amra Bakšić Čamo. The truly original and multilayered story about a lonely police inspector (Feđa Štukan) who investigates a murder at the National Museum was directed by Tanović and Aida Begić. Along with the series creators, Nikola Kuprešanin and Adnan Lugonić worked on the script. This crime series shines a light on authentic cultural identity, at the same time offering a universal story with strong characters. THE HOLLOW is the first drama series produced within the BH Content Lab platform of BH Telecom.

Another series produced by RTVSLO is previewed in the programme – TRIGRAD by director Sonja Prosnec, who co-wrote with Nina Zupančič and Gregor Fon. Business interests clash with ancient local beliefs in this mystery drama, as the director takes us deeper and deeper into the forest, trespassing into the field of the mythical and forbidden. Unusual characters portrayed by awarded Slovenian actors Katarina Stegnar and Marko Mandić awaken the curiosity.

Three drama series that premiere in the programme come from Serbia, the most productive regional country of the moment, including two that deal with the challenges of acting profession. Last year’s winner of the Heart of Sarajevo for Best Television Series, Bojan Vuletić, returns to Sarajevo with THE FALL, which he directed and co-wrote with Petar Mihajlović. The series is based on the autobiography of Žarko Laušević, one of the most famous actors in former Yugoslavia. It is not by chance that in this interplay of facts and fiction plays one of the most promising young Serbian actors, Milan Marić. The director explores the strengths and fragilities of an actor, while he faithfully portrays the dark side of 1990s Serbia.

Also returning to the Avant Premiere programme is series creator, director, and producer Gordan Kičić, who presents the second season of his comedy series MOM AND DAD ARE PLAYING WAR 2. The series was written by Gvozdan Đurić and Marko Manojlović, while Kičić also collaborated on the script. The highly popular first season followed Veljko, an actor from Belgrade, who dreams of landing a major role and becoming famous. In the second season, Veljko’s dreams become reality. This family saga is full of twists and funny characters who continue to surprise and entertain us.

As a preview of the future, we are thrilled to screen the Serbian drama series THE CLINCH, particularly as television shows for young people are rare in our part of the world. The series was created by Aljoša Ćeranić and Miloš Avramović, and directed by Danilo Bećković and Nebojša Radosavljević. One of the most popular young Serbian musicians, Mihajlo VeruovićVojaž, has been cast for the main role. Staring alongside Vojaž and Đorđo Mišina are young actors Anita Ognjanović, Teodora Dragićević (seen last year in the series BAD BLOOD) and Ivana Zečević, the rising star awarded the Heart of Sarajevo at the 27th Sarajevo Film Festival. With well-established cast in the roles of parents, we witness the emergence of a wonderful new generation of actors.

METROPOLITANS is a family drama series with a large cast of well-known Croatian actors, including Rene Bitorajc, Dejan Aćimović, Gordan Grgić, Linda Begonja, Nataša Janjič, Veljko Volarić Popović, and many others. The creator, principal writer, and producer of the series is Dario Vince and it was directed by Igor Šeregi. The show was developed during the pandemic and after a series of strong earthquakes that shook Croatia. Although it is a moving story inspired by true events, the plot of the series is light and its characters are often humorous.

The Sarajevo Film Festival continues to invest in the development of high-quality television shows through its CineLink Drama platform for development, this Avant Premiere Series programme, and Heart of Sarajevo Awards for television series. For television drama fans, this is an excellent opportunity to see on the big screen the first two episodes of six regional shows that will air on television in the upcoming fall or winter season. You can meet the cast and crew of the series during live discussions held daily in the Press Corner on the Festival Square.

The drama series selected for the Avant Premiere Series programme vie for the Unicredit Audience Award and are automatically shortlisted for the Heart of Sarajevo for TV Series Awards presented during the 29th Sarajevo Film Festival.

Come, follow us, and vote for your favourites, we have an exciting and varied selection ahead of us!

Kotlina / The Hollow

Tijelo nepoznatog muškarca otkriveno je u vrtu Zemaljskog muzeja u Sarajevu. Viši inspektor Edib

Pašić je pozvan na uviđaj. Nesretan slučaj ili ubistvo migranta, kako se misli u prvi mah, slučaj je za njega i mlađeg kolegu, inspektora Medu Zeca, sasvim nevažan, nezanimljiv medijima. Ipak, novinarka portala Sloboda Ajla Pašić slučajno se zatiče na mjestu zločina. U Sarajevo se isti dan iz zatvora vraća Senči, Edibov ratni drug sa druge strane zakona. Nestanak leša iz mrtvačnice i skriveni motivi zaposlenih u Muzeju, vode inspektore u mrežu korupcije, pritisaka, beznađa i međunarodnog kriminala. Istražujući slučaj, prisiljeni su zaroniti u današnje Sarajevo i donijeti odluke koje je teško opravdati, ali lako razumjeti.

Danis Tanović je rođen u Zenici 1969. Njegov debitantski film NIČIJA ZEMLJA (2001), za koji potpisuje režiju i scenarij, osvojio je Oscara za najbolji strani film, kao i Zlatni globus u istoj kategoriji. Na Međunarodnom filmskom festivalu u Berlinu dvostruki je dobitnik nagrade Srebrni medvjed za filmove EPIZODA U ŽIVOTU BERAČA ŽELJEZA (2013) i SMRT U SARAJEVU (2016). Dobitnik Počasnog Srca Sarajeva na 20. Sarajevo Film Festivalu 2014. godine. Amra Bakšić Čamo je jedna od osnivača SCCA/pro.ba, produkcijske kuće iz Sarajeva. Od 2003. godine vodi CineLink na Sarajevo Film Festivalu, a od 2018. godine jedan je od kustosa Torino Film Lab-a. Dugogodišnji je saradnik Biennale College inicijative pri Venecijanskom festivalu. Amra je vanredna profesorica na Akademiji scenskih umjetnosti u Sarajevu. Dvostruka dobitnica nagrade Ivica Matić, Media Prix u Cannesu, te dva Srebrena medvjeda u Berlinu za filmove Danisa Tanovića – EPIZODA U ŽIVOTU BERAČA ŽELJEZA i SMRT U SARAJEVU.

E The dead body of an unidentified man is discovered in the botanical garden of the National Museum in Sarajevo. Senior Police Inspector Edib Pašić is called to the scene. Pašić and his young colleague, inspector Medo Zec, do not place much importance on what they first believe was the accidental death or murder of a migrant, and the case initially draws no media attention. However, Ajla Pašić, who works as a journalist for local news site SLOBODA, stumbles upon the crime scene by chance. That same day, Edib’s war-time friend, Senči, returns to Sarajevo after a stint in prison. The disappearance of the body from the morgue and the ulterior motives of the museum’s employees draw the inspectors into a corrupt, pressure-filled network of personal grievances, hopelessness and international crime. As they investigate the case, they must dive into the present-day Sarajevo and make decisions that are hard to justify – but easy to understand.

Danis Tanović was born in Zenica (B&H) in 1969. In 2001, he wrote and directed his debut feature, NO MAN’S LAND, which won the Best Foreign Language Academy Award and the Golden Globe Award for Best Foreign Film. He won the Silver Bear at the Berlin International Film Festival for both AN EPISODE IN THE LIFE OF AN IRON PICKER (2013) and DEATH IN SARAJEVO (2016). In 2014, he received the Honorary Heart of Sarajevo from the 20th Sarajevo Film Festival.

Amra Bakšić Čamo is one of the founders of the Sarajevo-based production house SCCA/pro.ba. Since 2003, she has been the head of the CineLink coproduction market of the Sarajevo Film Festival and since 2018 also one of the curators of the Torino Film Lab. She has been a long-time collaborator of Biennale College initiative of the Venice Film Festival and also works as an associate professor at the Academy of Performing Arts in Sarajevo. She is a double winner of Ivica Matić award, as well as the winner of Media Prix award at Cannes and two Silver Bear awards at Berlinale for Danis Tanovic’s films AN EPISODE IN THE LIFE OF AN IRON PICKER and DEATH IN SARAJEVO.

Mama i tata se igraju rata 2 / Mom and Dad are Playing War 2

Veljko Radisavljević dobija vijest da mu je otac preminuo. Zbog toga mora da se vrati u Srbiju sa Kamčatke gdje snima treću sezonu serije SLOVENI. Očeva oporuka u kojoj mu direktno saopštava da je njegov najveći poraz, ali i saznanje da njegova kćerka Vida veoma pati za njim, i da zbog toga razvija negativne osobine poput laganja i manipulisanja, učinit će da Veljko odluči da ostane mnogo duže u Beogradu nego što je prvobitno bilo planirano. Za to vrijeme i ostali junaci prolaze kroz velike i ozbiljne emotivne i identitetske krize koje će u kulminaciji sezone dovesti do napuštanja poslova na kojima su bili nesretni, rastanaka sa emotivnim partnerima, izricanja neprijatnih istina, ali i rekonekcije sa najbližima.

E When Veljko Radisavljević is informed of his father’s death, he has to return to Serbia from Kamchatka, where he is filming the third season of the television series “Slovens.” He remains in Belgrade far longer than he had intended – on the one hand because he comes to realise his daughter Vida misses him very much, and on the other because in his father’s will, the old man states plainly that his son is his biggest disappointment. Meanwhile, various other characters are going through emotional and identity crises that culminate in decisions to leave partners or jobs that make them unhappy and to reveal uncomfortable truths – but also to reconnect with the people who are closest to them.

Metropolitanci / Metropolitans

U predgrađu glavnog grada zubar Petar i njegova supruga Marija brinu o stabilnosti odnosa u naselju, poljuljanoj izgradnjom bloka zgrada socijalno poticanog stanovanja. Godinu i po dana nakon razornog potresa, koji je teško oštetio centar grada, političari u naselje privremeno smještaju nastradale stanovnike čiji su stanovi i dalje nesigurni za život. Lokalni moćnik Pavić započne otkupljivanje njihovih porušenih stanova ispod cijene, udruživši se s gradskim mafijašem Musom. Petar im se suprotstavlja prihvaćajući dužnost predsjednika mjesnog odbora. Među doseljenicima iz centra je i Dunja, bivša Petrova velika ljubav. Životne drame malih ljudi iz potpuno različitih sredina, s različitim stavovima i ciljevima, međusobno se prepliću i tvore vibrantni život metropolitanskog predgrađa –glavnog junaka serije.

Dario Vince rođen je u Zagrebu 1963. godine. Vlasnik je i direktor Ring produkcije. Vince je kreator, koscenarista, showrunner i producent dramske serije POČIVALI U MIRU, dva puta birane za najbolju hrvatsku TV-seriju, uvrštene u službenu konkurenciju Internacionalnog TV Drama Festivala u Seoulu i prikazane na Series Mania Festivalu u Parizu. POČIVALI U MIRU je prva i do sada jedina hrvatska dramska serija čiji format je otkupio američki Lionsgate, a otkupljena je za prikazivanje od belgijske javne televizije VRT, te britanskog kanala Channel 4. Vince je povremeni predavač na ADU i Ekonomskom fakultetu u Zagrebu.

Igor Šeregi rođen je u Zagrebu 1983. godine. Studirao je filmsku režiju na Akademiji dramske umjetnosti u Zagrebu. Reditelj više televizijskih serijala i kratkih filmova. Svoj prvi dugometražni film ZG80 režira 2016. godine i osvaja Zlatnu arenu za najbolji film po ocjeni publike na 64. izdanju Pula Film Festivala.

E Dentist Petar and his wife Marija are struggling to maintain the cohesion of their community on the outskirts of their nation’s capital, which has been disrupted by the construction of a council building. A year and a half after a devastating earthquake ravaged the centre of the city, the local authorities use the building as temporary housing for people whose homes are still unsafe. A local strongman joins forces with the city’s mafia boss, and starts buying the displaced peoples’ destroyed flats at bargain-basement prices. After accepting the post of chair of the local council, Petar confronts them. Meanwhile, among the newly arrived in the municipality is Petar’s old flame Dunja. The personal dramas of young people from different walks of life, who have conflicting aims and expectations, intertwine to give rise to a vibrant social life in a suburb on the outskirts of the capital –the true star of the series.

Dario Vince was born in Zagreb in 1963. He is the owner and general manager of Ring Production Company. Vince is the creator, co-writer, show runner and producer of the drama series REST IN PEACE, twice awarded the Croatian annual award for best drama series, selected for the Seoul Drama Awards and screened in the Series Mania Festival in Paris.

Pad / The Fall

Priča serije počinje kasno uveče 30. jula 1993. godine, u trenutku kada dva brata, Ivan i Stojan, stižu do stana svog ujaka, nedaleko od mjesta na kome se u Podgorici upravo desio sukob sa tragičnim posljedicama. Priča se nastavlja u istražnom zatvoru SPUŽ . Paralelno, upoznajemo odnos Ivana i njegovog ozbiljnog i racionalnog oca Nikole. Ove dvije priče se usložnjavaju i proširuju, osvjetljavajući s jedne strane zavodljiv život jedne od najvećih glumačkih zvijezda Jugoslavije, ali i mračnu stranu devedesetih, korumpirano sudstvo i zatvorski polusvijet.

Bojan Vuletić rođen je u Beogradu 1977. Diplomirao je filmsku i televizijsku režiju na Fakultetu dramskih umetnosti. Njegov prvi dugometražni igrani film PRAKTIČAN VODIČ KROZ BEOGRAD SA

PEVANJEM I PLAKANJEM premijerno je prikazan u takmičarskom East of the West programu u Karlovym Varyma. Njegov drugi igrani film REKVIJEM ZA GOSPOĐU J. imao je svoju svjetsku premijeru na Međunarodnom filmskom festivalu u Berlinu 2017. godine u programu Panorama. Kao koscenarista sarađivao je sa Stefanom Arsenijevićem na dugometražnim igranim filmovima LJUBAV I DRUGI ZLOČINI i STRAHINJA BANOVIĆ, kao i na omnibusu IZGUBLJENO-NAĐENO. Na Sarajevo Film Festivalu 2021. godine serija PORODICA, čiji je Vuletić kreator, scenarista i reditelj, osvojila je nagradu Srce Sarajeva za najbolju dramsku seriju, a Vuletiću je tom prilikom pripala nagrada Srce sarajeva za najboljeg kreatora serije.

E On the evening of 30 July 1993, brothers Ivan and Stojan arrive at their uncle’s flat. Not far away, a tragic clash took place just moments earlier. It continues in the local detention unit. A parallel story explores the relationship between Ivan and his serious and rational father, Nikola. The two stories expand and become increasingly complex to shed light on the exciting life of one of Yugoslavia’s biggest acting starts, but also on the dark secrets of the 1990s – the nation’s corrupt judiciary and imprisoned low lifers.

Bojan Vuletić was born in Belgrade in 1977. He graduated from the Faculty of Dramatic Arts after studies in film and television directing. His feature debut, PRACTICAL GUIDE TO BELGRADE WITH SINGING AND CRYING, had its premiere in competition in the East of the West programme of the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival. His sophomore feature, REQUIEM FOR MRS J, had its world premiere in the Panorama section of the Berlin International Film Festival. Vuletić and Stefan Arsenijević co-wrote the scripts for the feature films LOVE AND OTHER CRIMES and AS FAR AS I CAN WALK, and collaborated on the anthology film LOST AND FOUND. The mini-series THE FAMILY, created, written and directed by Vuletić, won the Heart of Sarajevo for Best Drama Series, while Vuletić was presented with the same award for Best Series Creator.

Trigrad

Priča o muškarcu koji prolazi krizu identiteta i pronalazi novi dom u mistično lijepoj divljini. Također, ovo je priča o muškarcu koji mora ukloniti kletvu koju je iz ljubavi prema njegovom ocu bacila njegova majka. Nakon očeve smrti, Črt se poslije trideset godina odsustva vraća u rodno selo Trigrad kako bi prodao porodičnu farmu. Naizgled idilično selo, lijepo poput razglednice, krije mnoge misteriozne, nadrealne, a povremeno i užasavajuće svjetove. Ono što je počelo kao Črtova jednodnevna poslovna posjeta rodnom selu, prerasta u istraživanje porodične historije i mračnih događaja koji su preobrazili to mjesto.

Sonja Prosenc je debitirala s međunarodno nagrađenim i odlično prihvaćenim dugometražnim filmom DRVO. Njen naredni dugometražni film POVIJEST LJUBAVI 2018. godine je osvojio nagradu Kristalni globus Međunarodnog filmskog festival Karlovy Vary kao i niz drugih festivalskih nagrada. POVIJEST LJUBAVI i DRVO su bili slovenački kandidati za Oscara za najbolji strani film. Cineuropa ju je proglasila jednom od osam “najperspektivnijih evropskih rediteljica”, a 2020. godine je uvrštena u prvi Zlatni album Eurimagesa, s 50 drugih istaknutih evropskih rediteljica koje su obilježile prethodne dvije decenije. Slamdance ju je 2019. godine uvrstio među rediteljice i reditelje iz svih dijelova svijeta koji, prema njihovom izboru, predstavljaju “zraku svjetlosti i osvjetljavaju budućnost filma”. Uspješno oscilira između svojih arthouse filmova, koji su jako cijenjeni zbog sofisticiranog i osobenog filmskog jezika, žanrovskih uradaka poput nagrađivane kratke komedije RAJ i TV-serije TRIGRAD koju je prvi put predstavila na Series Mania festivalu u Lillu u Francuskoj 2022. godine.

E The story of a man going through an identity crisis, finding a new home in a mystically beautiful, feral landscape. The story, too, of a man who must break the curse set by his mother out of love for his father. Thirty years have passed when Črt returns to his birth village, Trigrad, upon his father’s death, to sell the old family farm. Behind the idyllic facade, on a sunny day resembling a sugary postcard, many layers of a mysterious, surreal, at times terrifying world are hidden. What starts as a one-day business deal turns into an exploration of Črt’s ancestral history and the grim events that reshaped this place.

Sonja Prosenc made her debut with the internationally award-winning and critically acclaimed feature film THE TREE. Her second feature, HISTORY OF LOVE, received a Special Mention in the Crystal Globe competition at the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival in 2018 and received further awards on its festival run. Both films were selected as national candidates for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film. Cineuropa named Prosenc as one of eight European female directors to watch, and in 2020 she was included in the first Eurimages Gold Album among fifty prominent European female directors of the last twenty years. In 2019, Slamdance selected her as one of four directors from around the globe who were named “beacons of light that predict the future of film.” She glides successfully between arthouse films that are highly regarded for their sophisticated and distinctive film language, genre works like the short, award-winning comedy PARADISE, and the television series TRIGRAD, first presented at Series Mania 2022 in Lille.

U klinču / The Clinch

U KLINČU je serija o odrastanju, onom pravom, o trenucima u kojima mladi ljudi na prelasku iz srednjoškolskog perioda života postaju studenti, zaposleni ljudi, kad počinju da ostvaruju ili se razočaravaju u svoje ambicije. To je period u kom život dijeli prve prave šamare, period u kom treba ostati na nogama. To je period u kom svako od nas shvata ko su mu pravi prijatelji, da život nije bajka za koju su nas spremali roditelji. To je period u kom počinje priča našeg glavnog junaka Aljoše. Aljoša je dvadesetogodišnji mladić na životnoj prekretnici, koji pokušava da balansira između očekivanja svog oca, ambicija svoje majke, vlastitih teško ostvarivih ambicija i ljubavi kojoj se bliži neizbježni kraj.

Good Luck to you, Leo Grande

Nancy Stokes, penzionisana učiteljica i udovica, čezne za avanturom, ljudskom bliskošću i malo seksa. Dobrog seksa. Iako joj je njen pokojni suprug Robert obezbijedio dom, porodicu i nešto nalik dobrom životu, on nikada nije bio vješt ljubavnik. Ali njega više nema, a Nancy ima plan: upustit će se u avanturu sa seksualnim radnikom po imenu Leo Grande. Nancy se nalazi s Leom u anonimnoj hotelskoj sobi van grada. Leo uživo izgleda jednako dobro kao i na slikama, ali ono što Nancy nije očekivala je da će joj osim seksa ponuditi i razgovor. Leo ima mišljenje o svemu i, mada se ne može reći da uvijek govori istinu, Nancy se on dopada. I ona se dopada njemu. Dok njeno samopouzdanje u seksu raste, Nancy počinje da se opušta. Tokom tri ljubavna sastanka, odnos snaga među njima počinje da se mijenja, a pažljivo izgrađene maske polako padaju.

Sophie Hyde rođena je 1977. godine u Adelaideu. Njen debitantski dugometražni film 52 TUESDAYS 2014. godine prikazan je u programu Generacija Međunarodnog filmskog festivala u Berlinu, gdje je nagrađen Kristalnim medvjedom. S istim filmom osvojila je i nagradu za režiju na Filmskom festivalu Sundance, gdje premijerno prikazuje i svoj naredni dugometražni film ANIMALS. Jedna je od osnivača kolektiva Closer Productions i autorica niza uspješnih dugometražnih dokumentaraca, te autorica, producentica i rediteljica višestruko nagrađenih serija F*!#ING ADELAIDE i THE HUNTING.

E Nancy Stokes, a retired school teacher and widow, is yearning for some adventure, some human connection, and some sex. Good sex. While her husband Robert provided a home, a family, and something resembling a life, good sex was never on offer. But he’s gone now, and Nancy has a plan: she will find adventure with a sex worker named Leo Grande. In an anonymous out-of-town hotel room, Nancy greets Leo. He looks every bit as good as his picture, but what Nancy wasn’t expecting was conversation as well as fornication. Leo has a view on everything, and though he may not always tell the truth, Nancy finds she likes him. And he likes her. With growing sexual confidence, Nancy starts to relax. Over the course of three rendezvouses, the power dynamics shift and well-worn masks begin to slip.

Sophie Hyde was born in Adelaide in 1977. Her debut feature film, 52 TUESDAYS, screened in the 2014 Berlin International Film Festival in the Generation section, where it won a Crystal Bear. The film went on to win the Directing Award at the Sundance Film Festival, where her next feature film, ANIMALS, premiered. A founding member of the film collective Closer Productions, Hyde has made a number of successful feature-length documentaries and is creator, producer and director of the series F*!#ING ADELAIDE and THE HUNTING, both of which have won several awards.

Jagten / Lov / The Hunt

Nakon bolnog razvoda, četrdesetogodišnji Lucas pronašao je novu djevojku, novi posao i pokušava popraviti odnos sa svojim sinom, tinejdžerom Marcusom. Ali stvari krenu krivim tokom. Ništa ozbiljno. Samo usputni komentar. Pokoja laž. A kako pada snijeg i božićne lampice se pale, laž se širi poput nevidljivog virusa. Šok i nepovjerenje više se ne mogu kontrolisati i mala zajednica iznenada upada u stanje kolektivne histerije dok Lucas vodi usamljeničku bitku za vlastiti život i dostojanstvo.

Thomas Vinterberg rođen je 1969. u Danskoj, gdje je i diplomirao na Državnoj školi za film. Uz Larsa von Triera, Sørena Kragh-Jacobsena i Kristiana Levringa bio je jedan od utemeljitelja filmskog pokreta Dogma 95. Njegovi kratki filmovi POSLJEDNJA TURA, koji je bio nominovan i za Oskara, i DJEČAK KOJI JE HODAO UNATRAG višestruko su nagrađivani na međunarodnim filmskim festivalima. Međunarodni proboj ostvario je filmom PROSLAVA, prvim filmom napravljenim prema pravilima pokreta Dogma, i osvojio Specijalnu nagradu žirija na Filmskom festivalu u Cannesu. Vinterbergov film LOV osvojio je tri nagrade na festivalu u Cannesu, uključujući nagradu za najboljeg glumca dodijeljenu Madsu Mikkelsenu, te je nominovan i za nagradu Zlatni globus. Vitenberg je sa svojim posljednjim filmom, JOŠ JEDNA RUNDA, nominovan za Oskara za najboljeg reditelja, a film je osvojio Oskara za najbolji strani film.

E Following a tough divorce, forty-year-old Lucas has a new girlfriend and a new job, and is in the process of re-establishing his relationship with his teenage son Marcus. But things go awry. Not a lot. Just a passing remark. A random lie. And as the snow falls and the Christmas lights are lit, the lie spreads like an invisible virus. The shock and mistrust get out of hand, and the small community suddenly finds itself in a collective state of hysteria, while Lucas fights a lonely fight for his life and dignity.

Thomas Vinterberg was born in Denmark in 1969 and graduated from the National Film School of Denmark. He was, together with Lars von Trier, Søren Kragh-Jacobsen and Kristian Levring, one of the four original Dogme brothers. He has received a score of awards from international festivals for his short films, the Academy Award-nominated LAST ROUND and THE BOY WHO WALKED BACKWARDS. Vinterberg’s international breakthrough THE CELEBRATION, the first released film that adheres to Dogme rules, won the Special Prize of the Jury at the Festival de Cannes. His THE HUNT won three awards at Cannes, including Best Actor for Mads Mikkelsen’s performance, and was nominated for a Golden Globe. For ANOTHER ROUND, his latest film, he was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Director and won the Academy Award for Best International Feature Film.

Sundown / Zalazak sunca

Kada hitna situacija navede članove bogate porodice Benett da se sa odmora u Acapulcu vrate u Veliku Britaniju, na površinu izlaze prigušene tenzije između nasljednika porodičnog bogatstva, Alice i Neila. Delikatna ravnoteža među članovima naizgled blisko vezane porodice, uključujući braću Colina i Alexa, biva nepovratno narušena.

Michel Franco rođen je u Mexico Cityju 1979. godine. Postigao je značajan uspjeh s filmovima na kojima je radio kao scenarista, reditelj i producent, među kojima se izdvajaju NAKON LUCIJE, proglašen najboljim filmom programa Izvjestan pogled Filmskog festivala u Cannesu 2012, i HRONIČNI, nagrađen za najbolji scenarij u Cannesu 2015. godine. Njegov film ABRILINE KĆERKE prikazan je u takmičarskom program Filmskog festivala u Cannesu 2017, gdje je osvojio nagradu žirija programa Izvjestan pogled.

E When a distant emergency summons the wealthy Bennett family back to the United Kingdom, disrupting a vacation on the Mexican coast in Acapulco, simmering tensions rise to the surface between scions Alice and Neil. The delicate balance of the deceptively close-knit clan, including siblings Colin and Alexa, is irrevocably upset.

Michel Franco was born in Mexico City in 1979. He has won critical acclaim for the films he has written, directed, and produced, among them AFTER LUCÍA, which won the award for Best Film in the Un Certain Regard section of the Festival de Cannes in 2012, and CHRONIC, which took the Best Screenplay award at Cannes in 2015.

Tori et Lokita / Tori i Lokita / Tori and Lokita

Dvanaestogodišnji Tori i tinejdžerka Lokita izuzetno su bliski. Oboje su porijeklom iz Zapadne Afrike, a kako su se našli u Belgiji bez porodice ovise jedno o drugom u borbi da se snađu i zarade nešto novca. Tvrde da su brat i sestra i zajedno pjevaju u jednom restoranu dok istovremeno za kuhara prenose drogu. Uprkos teškom životu, njihov odnos pun je radosti, ali kada Lokitino pravo da ostane u Belgiji dođe u pitanje, ona je prisiljena na osudnu odluku koja će je razdvojiti od Torija.

E Twelve-year-old Tori and teenager Lokita are extremely close. Both from West Africa and without other family in Belgium, they depend on each other as they struggle to get by and make some money. Claiming they are brother and sister, they sing beautifully together at a restaurant – while serving as drug couriers for the chef. Despite the hardship, there is great joy in their relationship but, when Lokita’s right to remain in Belgium is threatened, the financial demands of her family grow, and loan sharks loom, she is compelled into a pivotal decision that will separate her from Tori.

Fotomodeli Carl i Yaya probijaju se u svijetu mode istovremeno propitujući granice svoje veze. Dobijaju poziv na luksuzno krstarenje sa plejadom sumnjivih superbogataša koja uključuje jednog ruskog oligarha, britanskog trgovca oružjem i nesnošljivog kapetana, alkoholičara koji rado citira Marxa. Na početku, svaki aspekt krstarenja čini se dostojnim objave na Instagramu. Ali sprema se oluja i svi putnici dobiju težak napad morske bolesti tokom večere sa kapetanom u sedam slijedova. Krstarenje završava katastrofom. Carl i Yaya završe na napuštenom otoku sa grupom milijardera i jednim od čistača broda. Hijerarhijski poredak grupe odjednom se okreće naglavačke jer samo brodski radnik zna kako upecati ribu.

Počevši s njegovim drugim igranim filmom NESVJESNO, koji je premijerno prikazan u programu Izvjestan pogled, svi Östlundovi sljedeći filmovi su prikazani u Cannesu. Östlund osvaja Zlatnog medvjeda u Berlinu s filmom INCIDENT KOD BANKE. Njegov treći igrani film IGRA premijerno je prikazan u programu Quinzaine des réalisateurs Filmskog festivala u Cannesu, gdje je osvojio nagradu Coup de Coeur. Film je nominovan i za prestižnu nagradu LUX koju dodjeljuje Evropski parlament te je osvojio najprestižniju skandinavsku filmsku nagradu Nordic Prize. Njegov četvrti igrani film TURIST premijerno je prikazan u programu Izvjestan pogled Filmskog festivala u Cannesu, gdje je osvojio nagradu žirija. Film je nominovan za nagradu Zlatni globus i ušao je u uži izbor za Oscara. Östlundov peti igrani film TRG osvojio je Zlatnu palmu u Cannesu i nominovan je za Oscara za najbolji film na stranom jeziku. TROUGAO TUGE, njegov šesti igrani film, također je osvojio Zlatnu palmu u Cannesu.

E Models Carl and Yaya are navigating the world of fashion while exploring the boundaries of their relationship. The couple are invited for a luxury cruise with a rogues’ gallery of super-rich passengers, a Russian oligarch, British arms dealers, and an idiosyncratic, alcoholic, Marx-quoting captain. At first, all appears Instagrammable. But a storm is brewing, and heavy seasickness hits the passengers during the seven-course captain’s dinner. The cruise ends catastrophically. Carl and Yaya find themselves marooned on a desert island with a group of billionaires and one of the ship’s cleaners. Hierarchy is suddenly flipped upside down, as the housekeeper is the only one who knows how to fish.

Ruben Östlund was born in 1974 on Styrsö, a small island on the west coast of Sweden. His feature debut, THE GUITAR MONGOLOID, won the FIPRESCI Prize at the Moscow International Film Festival in 2005. All Östlund’s subsequent feature films had their premieres at the Festival de Cannes, starting with his second feature INVOLUNTARY, which was selected for Un Certain Regard. Östlund won the Golden Bear at the Berlin International Film Festival for INCIDENT BY A BANK. His third feature film, PLAY, was selected for the Directors’ Fortnight at Cannes, where he was awarded the Coup de cœur Prize. PLAY was nominated for the prestigious LUX prize of the European Parliament and won the Nordic Prize, the highest distinction in Scandinavia. His fourth feature film, FORCE MAJEURE, was selected for Un Certain Regard and won the Jury Prize. It was also nominated for a Golden Globe Award and shortlisted for an Academy Award. Ruben’s fifth feature film, THE SQUARE, was selected for the Official Competition at Cannes, where it won the Palme d’Or, and was nominated for the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film. TRIANGLE OF SADNESS, his sixth feature, also won the Palme d’Or at Cannes.

When You Finish Saving the World / Nakon što spasiš svijet

Evelyn je posvetila život pomaganju ljudima u nevolji, ali ne uspijeva se zbližiti sa svojim sinom Ziggyjem, internet-zvijezdom u usponu nezainteresovanom za svjetske probleme. Dok Evelyn pokušava zamijeniti majku skromnom tinejdžeru kojeg je upoznala u skloništu za beskućnike, Ziggy nevješto pokušava osvojiti briljantnu i politički osviješćenu srednjoškolsku drugaricu. Ovaj emotivni film, čiji scenarij i režiju potpisuje Jesse Eisenberg, zabavan je i iznimno perceptivan portret majke i sina koji su naizgled potpuno različiti, ali zapravo su puno sličniji nego što su to voljni priznati.

Jesse Eisenberg, glumac nominovan za Oscara Američke filmske akademije, s ovim filmom debitira kao reditelj. Film NAKON ŠTO SPASIŠ SVIJET baziran je na njegovom istoimenom audioromanu, za kojeg je osvojio nagradu Audie za najbolje originalno djelo. Eisenberg je autor dramskih testova The Spoils, The Revisionist, Asuncion i Happy Talk, često piše za New Yorker i autor je knjige Bream Gives Me Hiccups.

E Evelyn has devoted herself to helping people in hard times, but she struggles to connect with her son Ziggy, an aspiring internet star who is oblivious to the problems of the world. As Evelyn attempts to become a parent figure to an unassuming teenager she meets at her shelter, and Ziggy fumbles through his pursuit of a brilliant and politically conscious young woman at his high school, this emotional comedy, written and directed by Jesse Eisenberg, reveals a funny and sharply perceptive portrait of a mother and son who may seem at odds but who are more alike than either would care to admit.

Jesse Eisenberg, an Academy Award-nominated actor, makes his feature film directorial debut with

WHEN YOU FINISH SAVING THE WORLD, based on his Audible Original of the same name, which received the Audie for Best Original Work. Eisenberg has written the plays “The Spoils,” “The Revisionist,” “Asuncion,” and “Happy Talk,” and is a frequent contributor to “The New Yorker” and the author of “Bream Gives Me Hiccups.”

FILMOGRAFIJA / FILMOGRAPHY: 2022 – WHEN YOU FINISH SAVING THE WORLD

Sarajevski Kinoscope program / Sarajevo Kinoscope Program

Ovogodišnje izdanje Kinoscope programa obuhvata osamnaest filmova pažljivo odabranih iz selekcije niza festivala i iz brojnih zemalja. Sve filmove odlikuje vitalnost i raznolikost filmskog jezika, a većina su djelo mladih filmskih nada, pri čemu naš izbor uključuje čak deset debitantskih dugometražnih filmova. Iznimno talentirani dvadesetšestogodišnji koreanski filmski stvaralac Sye Young Park u našoj Kinoscope Surreal sekciji predstavit će svoj distopijski film o osvetoljubivoj plijesni, PETI GRUDNI PRŠLJEN, netom nakon njegove azijske premijere. Maestro David Cronenberg ove godine pridružit će se Kinoscope Surreal porodici s filmom ZLOČINI IZ BUDUĆNOSTI koji je premijeru imao na Filmskom festivalu u Cannesu, a za koji je okupio glumačku postavu punu poznatih imena. Kinoscope Surrreal sekciju upotpunjuje gerilski animirani film RATOVI PROTIV JEDNOROGA i moramo vas upozoriti da on nije podoban za djecu! Kada već spominjemo djecu, filmovi IZLIJEGANJE i HUSERA fokusiraju se na poprilično poremećene porodice zbog kojih ćete osjetiti olakšanje zbog vaših porodičnih odnosa. Za nešto duhovitije i opuštenije nadrealno iskustvo, drago nam je da smo u program uvrstili film PUŠENJE IZAZIVA KAŠALJ produktivnog reditelja neobičnih komedija Quentina Dupieuxa.

Također smo uvrstili naslove već priznatih autora i radujemo se povratku u Sarajevo Carle Simon sa njenim filmom ALKARAS, nagrađenim Zlatnim medvjedom u Berlinu, nakon što smo na festivalu 2017. predstavili njen film LJETO 93. Sam naslov posljednjeg filma Alberta Serre ukazuje na njegov sadržaj – misteriozno istraživanje polinezijskih obala iz trulog sjedišta njihovih francuskih okupatora. Uz naslov koji se poigrava riječju „pacifikacija“ – uspostavljanje mira objavom ili na osnovu sporazuma – NEMIRI NA OSTRVIMA (PACIFICTION) je briljantan film čiji ritam uslovljava razvoj priče na veoma neobičan način. U pobjedničkom filmu festivala

u Veneciji, VELIKI POKRET, prizori snimljeni u dokumentarističkom stilu miješaju se sa stilski neustrašivijim sekvencama, a sve to kulminira u grozničavo smontiranim scenama koje predstavljaju adekvatan, muzički promjenjiv klimaks kakofonične urbane simfonije Kire Russoa.

Autorski izbori ovih stvaralaca nisu samo puni njihove energije, već su i istinski posvećeni razvoju ključnih likova njihovih filmskih priča. Žalovanje je jedno od najtežih ljudskih iskustava, s kojim se svako od nas nosi na vlastiti način. Ispunjeno je sjećanjima na prošlost, mirenjem sa stvarnošću i razmatranjem moguće budućnosti, te trajno mijenja naš identitet. To je tema koju u filmu LJUBAVNI PAS prekrasno obrađuje Bianca Lucas, svršenica studijskog programa Sarajevo Film Factory. Drugi igrani film Lukasa Dhonta, BLIZU, koji je osvojio glavnu nagradu Filmskog festivala u Cannesu, također na delikatan način istražuje efekte gubitka i gubitka nevinosti. Pobjednički film programa Sedmica kritike Filmskog festivala u Cannesu POSLIJE SUNČANJA rediteljice Charlotte Wells, delikatno je i suptilno sjećanje na njenog oca iz mladosti. Nakon što je osvojio nagradu Srebreni medvjed u Berlinu, u Sarajevo stiže i dirljivi film OGRTAČ OD DRAGULJA rediteljice Natalije López Gallardo, dugogodišnje saradnice Carlosa Reygadaa i Lisandra Alonsa.

Talentovani autori u usponu često su skloni pričama o odrastanju, što je slučaj i sa rediteljicom Valentinom Maurel, rođenom u Kostarici, čiji nas film SANJAM ELEKTRIČNE SNOVE podsjeća koliko je vrijedno otkrivati naslove iz zemalja čija filmska produkcija rijetko privlači međunarodnu pažnju. U programu predstavljamo i film Rileya Keougha i Gine Gammell

RATNI PONI, snimljen u indijanskom rezervatu Pine Ridge u Južnoj Dakoti i oplemenjen ličnim pričama glumaca naturščika, koji je na Filmskom festivalu u Cannesu osvojio nagradu Zlatna

kamera. Francusku kinematografiju predstavlja film NAJGORI rediteljskog dvojca Lise Akoka i Romane Gueret. Radi se o dubokom uvidu u svijet filma, ne samo kao grane umjetnosti već i iz perspektive kreativnog procesa i društvene odgovornosti koje ona podrazumijeva. U svom nenametljivo maestralnom dugometražnom prvencu POD STABLIMA SMOKVE, Erige Sehiri poigrava se pravilima jedinstva vremena i mjesta u jednom tuniskom voćnjaku.

Mladost ne pronalazimo samo u pričama o mladima već i kod onih koji životu pristupaju sa intelektualnom i ushićenom radoznalošću. S tim u vezi, za kraj ovog uvodnika, s nježnošću pominjemo film koji će otvoriti naš ovogodišnji program. Ljubav prema vulkanima koji su dijelili

Katia i Maurice Krafft bila je vodeća sila njihovog života. I smrti. LJUBAVNA VATRA, film rediteljice

Sare Dosa, sačinjen od videomaterijala koje su snimili tokom svojih istraživanja, uz naraciju Mirande July, dirljiva je i duhovita oda njihovoj proždirućoj i kreativnoj strasti.

E This year’s Kinoscope programme boasts eighteen carefully selected films from an array of festivals and many countries. The films share a vitality and diversity in their cinematic language, with most coming from the new talents of tomorrow: ten of films are debut features. The extremely talented twenty-sixyear-old Korean filmmaker Park Syeyoung brings his dystopian film about a vengeful fungus, THE FIFTH THORACIC VERTEBRA, to Kinoscope Surreal, straight off its Asian launch. Master David Cronenberg joins the Kinoscope Surreal family this year with his Cannes-launched, star-studded CRIMES OF THE FUTURE. And completing the surreal bunch is the guerrilla anime UNICORN WARS from Spain – and be warned, you’ll want to refrain from bringing your kids! Speaking of children, HATCHING and HUESERA

dive into some deranged families that will bring you relief about your own. For a lighter and more humoristic touch of the surreal, we are glad to invite the prolific offbeat comedy director Quentin Dupieux with his latest, SMOKING CAUSES COUGHING.

We’ve also included some confirmed talents of today and rejoice in Carla Simon’s return to Sarajevo with her Golden Bear-winning ALCARRAS after her first film, SUMMER 93, was presented at the festival in 2017. The title alone of Albert Serra’s latest opus aptly suggests the film’s mysterious exploration of the Polynesian shores from inside the rotten core of France’s occupation. With a title that plays on the word “pacification” – the restoration of peace through a declaration or treaty – PACIFICTION is a brilliant film whose pacing develops the narrative in a very unusual way. In Venice winner THE GREAT MOVEMENT, documentary-style moments intertwine with more stylistically daring sequences and culminate in scenes of feverish editing that serve as a fitting, musically inflected climax to Kiro Russo’s cacophonous urban symphony.

Not only are these filmmakers’ cinematic gestures filled with their energy but they also commit to genuinely respecting their characters’ trajectories throughout the films. Mourning is one of the most difficult human experiences, finding each of us struggling in our own time, frequented by memories of the past, the reality of the present, the possibility of a future, and reshaping our identities. LOVE DOG, by Sarajevo Film Factory alumna Bianca Lucas, is a beautiful exploration of this. The sophomore feature from Lukas Dhont, the Cannes Grand Prix winner CLOSE, also delicately explores the effect of loss and the loss of innocence. Semaine de la Critique prize winner AFTERSUN, by Charlotte Wells, is a delicate, subtle recollection of a

young father, and the poignant ROBE OF GEMS, by Natalia López Gallardo, a long-term collaborator of Carlos Reygadas and Lisandro Alonso, also comes to Sarajevo after taking the Silver Bear at the Berlinale.

New talents often favour coming-of-age stories, like I HAVE ELECTRIC DREAMS, directed by Costa Rica-born Valentina Maurel, who reminds us once again that it’s worth discovering films from countries whose cinematic output is seldom exposed. Shot in the Pine Ridge Native American reservation in South Dakota and enriched by its cast of non-professional actors’ personal stories, Cannes Caméra d’Or recipients Riley Keough and Gina Gammell bring us their debut WAR PONY. Representing French cinema is THE WORST ONES by duo Lise Akoka and Romane Gueret. It’s a profound reflection on cinema, not only as an art form but also from the perspective of the creative process itself and its social responsibility. In Erige Sehiri’s quietly masterful fiction feature debut, UNDER THE FIG TREES, the rules of unity of time and place are toyed with in a Tunisian orchard.

Youth isn’t just found in stories about the young; it’s about constantly approaching life with intellectual and joyful curiosity. So, to close, we tenderly mention our opening film. The love of volcanoes shared by Katia and Maurice Krafft was the driving force around which they lived — and lost – their lives. FIRES OF LOVE, directed by Sara Dosa, made up of archival images from the Kraffts’ explorations and narrated by Miranda July, is a touching and funny ode to a devouring and creative passion.

Aftersun / Poslije sunčanja

Sophie se prisjeća zajedničke radosti i vlastite melanholije odmora koji je provela s ocem prije dvadeset godina. Uspomene, stvarne i izmaštane, popunjavaju praznine u snimcima mini DV kamere, dok Sophie u glavi pokušava pomiriti ono što je znala o svome ocu s onim što joj o njemu nije bilo poznato.

Charlotte Wells je škotska filmska autorica s adresom stanovanja u New Yorku. Tokom dvostrukog magistarskog studija iz biznisa i filma na Univerzitetu u New Yorku, koji je pohađala uz podršku njujorške i losanđeleske BAFTA-e, napisala je i režirala tri kratka filma. Charlie je predstavljena u filmskom magazinu “25 lica nezavisnog filma”, a 2020. godine je bila učesnica laboratorije za scenarij i režiju Sundance Instituta. POSLIJE SUNČANJA je njen prvi dugometražni film.

E Sophie reflects on the shared joy and private melancholy of a holiday she took with her father twenty years earlier. Memories real and imagined fill the gaps between mini-DV footage as she tries to reconcile the father she knew with the man she didn’t.

Charlotte Wells is a Scottish filmmaker based in New York City. She wrote and directed three short films as a student in the MBA/MFA dual-degree program at New York University, where she was supported by BAFTA New York and Los Angeles. Wells has been featured in Filmmaker Magazine’s “25 Faces of Independent Film” and was a fellow at the 2020 Sundance Institute Screenwriters and Directors Labs. AFTERSUN is her first feature.

Alcarràs / Alkaras

Otkako znaju za sebe, članovi porodice Solé svako ljeto provode berući breskve u svome voćnjaku u malom španjolskom selu Alkaras. Ali ovogodišnja berba mogla bi im biti posljednja jer im prijeti deložacija. Prema novim planovima koji izazivaju razdor u inače bliskoj porodici, stabla breskve trebala bi biti posječena da bi se na njihovom mjestu postavili solarni paneli. Po prvi put, članovi porodice suočavaju se sa nesigurnom budućnošću i prijetnjom da izgube više od doma.

Carla Simón je scenaristica i rediteljica rođena i odrasla u malom katalonskom selu. Studirala je audiovizuelne komunikacije u Barseloni i Kaliforniji, a 2011. dobila je stipendiju La Caixa za magistarski studij u Londonskoj školi filma. Debitirala je autobiografskim filmom ESTIU 1993, osvojivši nagradu za najbolji igrani film i Grand Prix programa Generacija Kplus Međunarodnog filmskog festivala u Berlinu, tri Goya nagrade, među kojima i za najboljeg mladog reditelja, te nominaciju za Evropsku filmsku nagradu u kategoriji Discovery. Na 71. izdanju Filmskog festivala u Cannesu Carla je osvojila Kering|Women In Motion nagradu za mlade talente.

E As far as back they can remember, the Solé family have spent every summer picking peaches in their orchard in Alcarràs, a small village in Spain. But this year’s crop could be their last, as they face eviction. The new plans for the land include cutting down the peach trees and installing solar panels, which causes a rift within the large tight-knit family. For the first time, they face an uncertain future and risk losing more than their home.

Carla Simón is a film writer and director raised in a small Catalan village. She studied audio-visual communication in Barcelona and in California. In 2011, she was awarded a scholarship by La Caixa to attend a master’s programme at the London Film School. SUMMER 1993 is her autobiographical debut. It won the Best First Feature Award and the Generation KplusGrand Prix at the Berlin International Film Festival, along with three Goya Awards, including Best New Director, and a Discovery nomination from the European Film Awards. In 2018, during the 71st edition of the Festival de Cannes, Simón received the Kering|Women In Motion Young Talent Award.

Crimes of the Future / Zločini iz budućnosti

Dok se ljudska vrsta prilagođava sintetičkom okruženju, ljudsko tijelo prolazi niz transformacija i mutacija. Slavni scenski umjetnik Saul Tenser sa svojom partnericom Caprice na avangardnim predstavama javno prikazuje metamorfozu vlastitih organa. Timlin, istražitelj Državnog registra organa, opsesivno prati njihovo kretanje što dovodi do otkrića jedne misteriozne grupe. Njihova misija: iskoristiti Saulovu slavu da rasvijetle narednu fazu ljudske evolucije.

Davida Cronenberga često nazivaju jednim od najboljih i najuticajnijih svjetskih reditelja. Cronenberg je 1991. godine osvojio Srebrenog medvjeda na Međunarodnom filmskom festivalu u Berlinu za film GOLI RUČAK, kojeg osvaja i 1999. godine za film EXISTENZ. Cronenbergovi filmovi SUDAR, PAUK, HISTORIJA NASILJA i KOSMOPOLIS takmičili su se za Zlatnu palmu Filmskog festivala u Cannesu, a film SUDAR osvojio je specijalnu nagradu kanskog žirija. Njegov film iz 2011. OPASNA METODA nominovan je za Zlatnog lava Međunarodnog filmskog festivala u Veneciji, gdje je 2018. osvojio nagradu za životno djelo. Predsjedavao je žirijem Filmskog festivala u Cannesu 1999, a festival mu je 2006. godine uručio nagradu za životno djelo Carrosse d’Or. Njegovi filmovi su četiri puta nominovani za Oscara Američke filmske akademije, šest puta za nagradu Zlatni globus, te po jednom za nagrade BAFTA i César, a osvojili su nagrade Međunarodnog filmskog festivala u Torontu, Kanadskog udruženja reditelja, te kanadsku filmsku nagradu Genie.

E As the human species adapts to a synthetic environment, the body undergoes new transformations and mutations. With his partner Caprice, Saul Tenser, a celebrity performance artist, publicly showcases the metamorphosis of his organs in avant-garde performances. Timlin, an investigator from the National Organ Registry, obsessively tracks their movements, which is when a mysterious group is revealed… Their mission: to use Saul’s notoriety to shed light on the next phase of human evolution.

David Cronenberg is frequently lauded as one of the world’s greatest and most influential directors. In 1991, he received the Silver Bear Grand Jury Prize at the Berlin International Film Festival for NAKED LUNCH, and won the award again in 1999 for EXISTENZ. Cronenberg’s films CRASH, SPIDER, A HISTORY OF VIOLENCE, and COSMOPOLIS were all in competition for the Palme d’Or at the Festival de Cannes, where CRASH received a Special Jury Prize. In 2011, A DANGEROUS METHOD was nominated for the Golden Lion Award at the Venice International Film Festival, and the festival presented Cronenberg with the Golden Lion Award for Lifetime Achievement in 2018. In 1999, he presided over the jury at Cannes and, in 2006, was awarded the festival’s lifetime achievement award, the Carrosse d’Or. Collectively, his films have been nominated for four Academy Awards, have received six Golden Globe nominations, and BAFTA and César Award nominations, as well as prizes from the Toronto International Film Festival, the Directors Guild of Canada, and Canada’s Genie Awards.

daseos beonjjae hyungchu / Peti grudni

pršljen / The Fifth Thoracic Vertebra

Nakon što ljubavni par okonča svoju vezu, plijesan se počne nakupljati na njihovom odbačenom madracu i iz nje se rađa misteriozno stvorenje. Stvorenje putuje zemljom hraneći se pršljenovima svojih žrtava u pokušaju da pobjegne iz kreveta, od plijesni i od vlastite prošlosti. Pun teške čežnje i još težeg osjećaja samoće, ovaj film vjerno oslikava duboku sjetu izgubljene mlade ljubavi i zvijer očaja koji se rađa iz tog osjećaja napuštenosti.

Syeyoung Park je rođen 1996. godine. Magistrirao je film i videoumjetnost na Korejskom državnom univerzitetu umjetnosti. PETI GRUDNI PRŠLJEN njegov je prvi dugometražni film.

E When a couple splits, mould starts growing on their dumped mattress, from which a mysterious creature is born. The creature travels around the country, feasting on its victims’ vertebrae, struggling to break free from the bed, the mould, and its past. A film filled with deep longing and even deeper loneliness, THE FIFTH THORACIC VERTEBRA captures the wistfulness of young love lost and the monster of despair that emerges from that sense of abandonment.

Syeyoung Park was born in 1996. He graduated from the Korea National University of Arts, majoring in cinema and video art. THE FIFTH THORACIC VERTEBRA is his first feature-length film.

El Gran Movimiento / Veliki pokret / The Great Movement

Današnja Bolivija. Nakon sedam dana hoda, Elder i njegovi prijatelji rudari stižu u La Paz sa zahtjevom da budu vraćeni na posao. Iznenada, Elder se počne osjećati loše... Uz pomoć stare Mamá Panche, Elder i njegovi prijatelji pronalaze posao na pijaci. Ali Elderovo stanje se pogoršava, guši se i bori se za dah. Mamá Pancha ga šalje Maxu – nadriljekaru, pustinjaku i klovnu – koji ga možda može vratiti u život.

Kiro Russo rođen je u La Pazu, a obrazovao se na Univerzitetu FUC u Buenos Airesu. Njegov debitantski dugometražni film VIEJO CALAVERA prikazan je na preko osamdeset filmskih festivala i osvojio je dvadeset i tri nagrade, uključujući specijalnu pohvalu žirija Filmskog festivala u Locarnu 2016, Veliku nagradu Filmskog festivala Cartagena, specijalnu pohvalu Međunarodnog filmskog festivala u San Sebastiánu, nagradu žirija Valdivia Film Festivala, FIPRESCI nagradu na Filmskom festivalu u Rio de Janeiru, te Veliku nagradu festivala Indie Lisboa.

E Bolivia, today. After walking for a week, Elder and his miner companions arrive in La Paz to demand the reinstatement of their jobs. Suddenly, Elder starts to feel unwell... With the help of the elderly Mamá Pancha, Elder and his friends find work in the market. But Elder’s condition worsens: he’s choking and struggling for breath. Mamá Pancha sends him to Max – a witch doctor, hermit, and clown – who may be able to bring the young man back to life.

Kiro Russo was born in La Paz and trained at FUC Buenos Aires. DARK SKULL, his debut feature, was selected by more than eighty festivals and won twenty-three awards, including a Special Mention of the Jury of the Locarno Festival in 2016, the Grand Prize of the Cartagena Film Festival, a Special Mention at the San Sebastián International Film Festival, the Jury Prize of the Valdivia Film Festival, the FIPRESCI Prize at the Rio de Janeiro Film Festival, and the Grand Prize at Indie Lisboa.

Fire of Love / Ljubavna vatra

Neustrašivi francuski naučnici Katia i Maurice Krafft posvetili su život razotkrivanju misterije vulkana, lutajući širom svijeta u potrazi za vatrom i u procesu stvarajući neke od najspektakularnijih snimaka i fotografija planete Zemlje. Viđen objektivom ovoga para, film LJUBAVNA VATRA intimna je i fascinantna vizuelna romansa koja propituje način na koji je njihova zajednička strast omogućila pionirska istraživanja sedamdesetih i osamdesetih godina prošloga vijeka koja su pomogla da se spasu životi, ali u konačnici uzrokovala i njihovu smrt. Ovaj lirični arhivski kolaž, izvučen iz stotina sati videomaterijala i fotografija Krafftovih, pokazuje humor, bliskost i neutaživu radoznalost koji su bili integralni dio njihovog partnerstva i zaslužni su za njihovu zaostavštinu koja je zauvijek izmijenila naše shvatanje prirode.

Sara Dosa je rediteljica dokumentarnih filmova nominovana za Indie Spirit nagradu, kao i producentica nagrađena Peabody nagradom, a privlače je neobične priče o ekologiji, ekonomiji i društvenim zajednicama u čijem fokusu su osobeni pojedinici. Njen prvi dugometražni film THE LAST SEASON premijerno je prikazan 2014. godine na Međunarodnom filmskom festivalu u San Franciscu, gdje je osvojio Golden Gate nagradu, te je nominovan za Indie Spirit Truer Than Ficton nagradu. Dosa je korežirala epizodu Netflixove muzičke serije RE-MASTERED nominovanu za nagradu Emmy. Njujorški festival dokumentarnog filma DOC NYC 2018. godine uvrstio ju je u svoju prvu generaciju “40 mlađih od 40” dokumentarista. Članica je Američke akademije filmske umjetnosti i nauka.

E Intrepid French scientists Katia and Maurice Krafft devoted their lives to uncovering the mysteries of volcanoes, chasing fire around the world and, in the process, capturing some of the most spectacular imagery of Earth ever recorded. Told through the lenses of this magnetic couple, FIRE OF LOVE is a visual romance that takes place on an intimate and awesome scale, exploring how their shared passion enabled pioneering research in the 1970s and 80s that helped save lives, but ultimately ended their own. This lyrical archival collage pulls from hundreds of hours of rare and unseen footage and photographs shot by the Kraffts, channelling the humour, affection, and insatiable curiosity that was integral to their partnership, and that left behind a legacy that will forever enrich our understanding of the natural world.

Sara Dosa is an Indie Spirit Award-nominated documentary director and Peabody Award-winning producer whose interests lie in telling unexpected character-driven stories about ecology, economy, and community. Her first feature-length film, THE LAST SEASON (2014), won a Golden Gate Award at its San Francisco International Film Festival premiere and was nominated for the Indie Spirit Truer than Fiction Award. Dosa co-directed an Emmy Award-nominated episode of the Netflix music series RE-MASTERED. In 2018, DOC NYC named Dosa to the inaugural 40 Under 40 class of documentary filmmakers, and she was inducted into the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.

Fumer fait tousser / Pušenje izaziva kašalj / Smoking Causes Coughing

Nakon razorne borbe sa dijaboličnom kornjačom, petočlana grupa osvetnika, poznata pod imenom Duhanski tim, se raspada. Članove grupe šalju na obavezni, zajednički jednosedmični odmor da pokušaju ojačati njihovu međusobnu koheziju. Odmor protiče sjajno sve dok Lézardin, imperator zla, ne odluči uništiti planetu Zemlju.

Quentin Dupieux je rođen 1974. u Parizu. Kada je imao 18 godina, otkriva film i kupuje svoj prvi sintisajzer. Pod umjetničkim imenom Mr Oizo objavio je međunarodni hit singl Flat Beat i nekoliko muzičkih albuma. Režirao je, montirao i komponovao muziku za svoj debitantski igrani film STEAK iz 2007. godine. Nakon toga snima apsurdistički horor RUBBER i komediju WRONG, koja je premijerno prikazana na Filmskom festivalu Sundance. Nakon toga snima filmove REALITY, koji je premijerno prikazan na festivalu u Veneciji, te AU POSTE!, prvi nakon niza njegovih filmova snimljenih u Americi koji je snimio u Francuskoj. Nastavlja snimati u Francuskoj, između ostalog i fimove INCROYABLE MAIS VRAI, koji je premijeru imao na Berlinaleu, te PUŠENJE IZAZIVA KAŠALJ, koji je premijerno prikazan u Cannesu.

E After a devastating battle against a diabolical turtle, a team of five avengers – known as the Tobacco Force – is falling apart. They are sent on a mandatory week-long retreat to strengthen their decaying group cohesion. Their sojourn goes wonderfully well until Lézardin, Emperor of Evil, decides to annihilate planet Earth.

Quentin Dupieux was born in Paris in 1974. He discovered filmmaking at the age of eighteen, and bought his first synthesiser. As Mr Oizo, he released the international hit single “Flat Beat” and several albums. He directed, edited, and scored his debut feature-length film STEAK in 2007. It was followed by the absurdist horror film RUBBER and the comedy WRONG, which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival. His subsequent films include REALITY, which had its premiere at the Venice International Film Festival, and KEEP AN EYE OUT, the first film Dupieux shot in France. It was followed by further French productions, such as INCREDIBLE BUT TRUE, which premiered at the Berlin International Film Festival, and SMOKING CAUSES COUGHING, which had its premiere at the Festival de Cannes.

Huesera

To je trebao biti najsretniji period Valerijinog života. Dugogodišnji san nje i njenog supruga Raula konačno se ostvario: Valerija je trudna. Na početku sve djeluje savršeno. No, postepeno, ona postaje sve utučenija. U očekivanju majčinstva, Valerija se ne može osloboditi duboke sumnje u samu sebe i sveprisutnog osjećaja užasnutosti uzrokovanog vizijama bića nalik paucima i drugih nadnaravnih prijetnji koje su možda djelo sile poznate pod imenom La Huesera. U nastojanju da se suoči s tim demonima, Valerija se vraća svom starom, bezbrižnom životu kojeg se odrekla zbog Raula, te ponovo uspostavlja odnos sa svojom prvom ljubavlju Octavijom.

Michelle Garza Cervera diplomirala je u meksičkoj javnoj školi Centro de Capacitación Cinematográfica u Mexico Cityju. Kao dobitnica Chevening stipendije magistrirala je režiju na Koledžu Goldsmiths Univerziteta u Londonu. Njeni kratki filmovi prikazani su na preko stotinu festivala širom svijeta. HUESERA je njen debitantski dugometražni film.

E It should be the happiest time in Valeria’s life. She and her husband, Raul, have finally seen one of their long-time dreams come true: Valeria is pregnant. At first, everything seems perfect. Gradually, though, her mood darkens. With motherhood upon her, Valeria can’t shake off heavy self-doubt and a pervasive dread, the latter stemming from visions of spider-like presences and other possibly supernatural threats, all of which may be the work of an entity known as La Huesera. Hoping to confront these demons, she reconnects with the old, more carefree life she once gave up for Raul, including rekindling an old flame with her first love, Octavia.

Michelle Garza Cervera graduated from the Centro de Capacitación Cinematográfica in Mexico City. She was awarded a Chevening scholarship in the United Kingdom and completed an MFA in directing at Goldsmiths, University of London. Her shorts have been selected for more than one hundred film festivals around the world. HUESERA is her feature film debut.

Les Pires / Najgori / The Worst Ones

U gradiću Picasso, predgrađu lučkog grada Boulogne-Sur-Mer na sjeveru Francuske, snimat će se film. Četvero lokalnih tinejdžera – Lily, Ryan, Maylis i Jessy – prolaze na audiciji za uloge u filmu. Svi u njihovom susjedstvu su iznenađeni i pitaju se zašto su filmadžije birale samo “najgore”?

Lise Akoka je završila studij psihologije, a stručno se obučavala i za glumu. Nakon toga je u odabiru djece za uloge u filmu i radu sa njima tokom snimanja pronašla fokalnu tačku svojih profesionalnih interesa. Gueret i Akoka su 2015. zajedno režirale kratki film CHASSE ROYALE s kojim su osvojile brojne festivalske nagrade, uključujući nagradu Illy programa Quinzaine des réalisateurs Filmskog festivala u Cannesu. Film je godinu dana kasnije nominovan za Césara za najbolji kratki film. Njihova web-serija

TU PRÉFÈRES emitovana je u programu kanala Arte, a zatim uvrštena u program Filmskog festivala Sundance. NAJGORI, njihov prvi dugometražni film, 2022. je prikazan u programu Izvjestan pogled Filmskog festivala u Cannesu.

Romane Gueret je studirala film na Sorbonni, a zatim zakoračila prema rediteljskoj karijeri tako što je prvo radila kao pomoćnica reditelja, kasting direktorica, kasting asistentica i kamermanka.

E A film shoot will take place at the cité Picasso, in the suburbs of Boulogne-sur-Mer, in the north of France. During the casting, four teenagers, Lily, Ryan, Maylis, and Jessy are chosen to appear in the film. Everyone in the neighbourhood is surprised: why only take the “worst ones”?

Lise Akoka completed a university course in psychology and professional training in acting, then discovered, through casting and coaching children for cinema, a way of bringing together her two interests. In 2015, Akoka and Romane Gueret co-directed the short film CHASSE ROYALE, which won awards from several festivals, including the Illy Prize in the Directors’ Fortnight at the Festival de Cannes, and went on to be nominated for the César Award for Best Short Film. In 2020, Akoka and Gueret’s web series TU PRÉFÈRES was broadcast on Arte and selected for the Sundance FilmFestival. THE WORST ONES, their first feature-length film, was selected for Un Certain Regard at Cannes in 2022.

Romane Gueret, after studying cinema at the Sorbonne, took her first steps towards directing, as an assistant director, casting assistant, and cameraperson.

Dvanaestogodišnja gimnastičarka Tinja očajnički nastoji zadovoljiti svoju izgledom opsjednutu majku, čiji blog “Prekrasni svakodnevni život” predstavlja život njihove porodice kao idiličnu egzistenciju u perfektno njegovanom predgrađu. Kada Tinja u šumi pronađe povrijeđenu pticu, ona odnosi njeno čudno jaje kući, ušuška ga u svoj krevet i njeguje ga do izlegnuća. Stvorenje koje izađe iz jajeta postaje Tinjin najbolji prijatelj i oživotvorena noćna mora, gurajući je iza besprijekorne zavjese savršenog života u poremećenu stvarnost koju njena majka odbija da vidi.

Hanna Bergholmchas je diplomirala filmsku režiju na Univerzitetu za umjetnost i dizajn u Helsinkiju 2009. godine. Režirala je nekoliko međunarodno nagrađenih kratkih filmova i televizijskih dramskih serija.

IZLIJEGANJE je njen prvi dugometražni film.

E Tinja, a twelve-year-old gymnast, is desperate to please her image-obsessed mother, whose popular blog “Lovely Everyday Life” presents their family’s existence as manicured suburban perfection. One day, after finding a wounded bird in the woods, Tinja brings its strange egg home, nestles it in her bed, and nurtures it until it hatches. The creature that emerges becomes her closest friend and a living nightmare, plunging Tinja beneath the impeccable veneer into a twisted reality that her mother refuses to see.

Hanna Bergholmchas graduated in 2009 from the University of Art and Design Helsinki with MA in film directing. She has directed several short films and television drama series that have won awards internationally. PUPPET MASTER, her latest short horror film, was selected for several international film festivals, including the Fantasia Film Festival in Montreal and Fantastic Fest in Austin in 2018, and for the Museum of Modern Art in New York in 2019.

snove / I Have Electric Dreams

Eva ne može podnijeti činjenicu da njena majka želi renovirati kuću i riješiti se mačke koja je, dezorijentisana nakon razvoda Evinih roditelja, počela mokriti gdje god stigne. Eva želi živjeti kod svog oca koji, dezorijentisan poput mačke, proživljava svoju drugu mladost. Iako nesposobna preplivati okean zrelosti, Eva se mora suočiti s bijesom koji nagriza njenog oca. I sada se počinje prelijevati i u nju.

Valentina Maurel je rođena u Kostarici, a studij filma je završila u Belgiji. Njen diplomski kratki film PAUL ESTÁ ACÁ premijerno je prikazan u Cinéfondation programu Filmskog festivala u Cannesu 2017. godine. Njen sljedeći kratki film LUCÍA EN EL LIMBO prikazan je u sklopu Sedmice kritike festivala u Cannesu 2019. godine, te je osvojio mnogobrojna priznanja, među kojima je i glavna nagrada na Filmskom festivalu u Guanajuatu. SANJAM ELEKTRIČNE SNOVE joj je, kao scenaristici i rediteljici, prvi dugometražni igrani film.

E Eva can’t stand the fact that her mother wants to renovate the house and get rid of the cat, which, disoriented since Eva’s parents’ divorce, pees everywhere. Eva wants to go and live with her father, who, disoriented like the cat, is experiencing a second adolescence. But like someone who traverses an ocean of adults without knowing how to swim, Eva has to face the rage that gnaws at her father. And now it is going through her too.

Valentina Maurel was born in Costa Rica and completed her film education in Belgium. Her graduate film PAUL IS HERE premiered in the Cinéfondation section of the Festival de Cannes in 2017. Her next short film, LUCÍA IN LIMBO, was screened in the Semaine de la Critique at Cannes in 2019 and has won numerous awards, including the top prize of the Guanajuato International Film Festival. I HAVE ELECTRIC DREAMS, which she wrote and directed, is her debut feature.

Tourment sur les îles / Nemiri na ostrvima / Pacifiction

Na otoku Tahitiju u Francuskoj Polineziji, Visoki republički komesar i zvaničnik francuske vlade proračunat je čovjek besprijekornih manira. Njegova donekle široka percepcija vlastite uloge navodi ga da navigira kroz visoke ešalone “establišmenta”, kao i mutna okupljališta gdje se druži s lokalnim stanovništvom – naročito nakon što su se počele širiti uporne glasine o ukazanju podmornice, čije sablasno prisustvo možda nagovještava povratak francuskih nuklearnih testova.

Albert Serra, rođen u Banjolezu 1975, katalonski je umjetnik i reditelj. Nakon studija filozofije i književnosti, pisao je pozorišne drame i producirao brojne videoradove. Međunarodno priznanje stekao je prvim dugometražnim filmom HONOR DE CAVALLERIA, slobodnom adaptacijom Don Kihota. Film je 2006. godine prikazan u programu Quinzaine des réalisateurs Filmskog festivala u Cannesu.

Za film HISTÒRIA DE LA MEVA MORT, inspirisan Kazanovinim memoarima, osvojio je nagradu Zlatni leopard na Filmskom festivalu u Locarnu 2013. godine. Film LA MORT DE LOUIS XIV predstavio je u zvaničnoj takmičarskoj selekciji Filmskog festivala u Cannesu 2016, a tri godine kasnije u Cannesu je s filmom LIBERTÉ osvojio specijalnu nagradu žirija programa Izvjestan pogled. U Cannes se vratio 2022. godine s filmom NEMIRI NA OSTRVIMA, koji je uvršten u zvaničnu takmičarsku selekciju festivala.

E On the French Polynesian island of Tahiti, the High Commissioner of the Republic and French government official is a calculating man with flawless manners. His somewhat broad perception of his role brings him to navigate the high-end “establishment” as well as shady venues where he mingles with the locals — especially since a persistent rumour has been going around about the sighting of a submarine whose ghostly presence could herald the return of French nuclear testing.

Albert Serra, born in Banyoles in 1975, is a Catalan artist and director. After studying philosophy and literature, he wrote plays and produced video works. He gained international recognition with his first feature-length film, HONOUR OF THE KNIGHTS, a free adaptation of “Don Quixote.” The film was presented in the Directors’ Fortnight at the Festival de Cannes in 2006. In 2013, Serra received the Golden Leopard at the Locarno Festival for his film STORY OF MY DEATH, inspired by Casanova’s memoirs. THE DEATH OF LOUIS XIV was presented in the Official Selection at Cannes Film in 2016. LIBERTÉ won the Special Jury Award of Un Certain Regard at Cannes in 2019. In 2022, he returned to Cannes in the Official Competition with PACIFICTION.

Under the Fig Trees / Pod stablima smokve

U hladu smokvinog drveća formira se snažna veza među mladim sezonskim najamskim radnicima. Kroz flertovanje, međusobnu privlačnost i odbijanje, mladi muškarac i žena osjećaju snažnu povezanost dok se trude da se međusobno upoznaju i shvate.

Erige Sehiri je francusko-tuniska rediteljica i producentica. S vlastitom produkcijskom kompanijom

Unicorn Wars / Ratovi protiv jednoroga

U jednoj dalekoj dalekoj zemlji, medvjedi i jednorozi oduvijek ratuju. Armija plišanih medvjedića indoktrinira mlade regrute kako bi pokrenuli rat protiv jednoroga koji su prijetnja opstanku medvjeda. Braća Bluey i Tubby su u grupi neiskusnih regruta koje pošalju na opasan zadatak spašavanja čarobne šume. Da li su oni spremni za taj izazov? Mješavina APOKALIPSE DANAS i BAMBIJA, film RATOVI JEDNOROGA priča je sa snažnom antiratnom, ekološki osviještenom porukom.

Alberto Vazquez je ilustrator bogate karijere, kako u književnom izdavaštvu tako i u informativnim medijima. Autor je brojnih grafičkih romana koji su objavljeni širom svijeta. Dvostruki je dobitnik nagrade Goya za najbolji kratki animirani film, a 2017. godine osvojio je i Goyu za najbolji dugometražni animirani film. Dobitnik je više od 100 međunarodnih nagrada, a njegovi filmovi prikazani su na najvažnijim svjetskim filmskim festivalima, uključujući festivale u Cannesu, Torontu, Annecyju, Clermont-Ferrandu, Zagrebu, te festivale Animafest, Slamdance i Evropske filmske nagrade.

E In a distant land, bears and unicorns have always been at war. A teddy bear army indoctrinates young recruits to wage war against the unicorns, who threaten the bears’ survival. Brothers Bluey and Tubby, along with a group of inexperienced recruits, are sent on a dangerous mission to save the magical forest. Are they up to the challenge? Half APOCALYPSE NOW, half BAMBI, UNICORN WARS is an antiwar, environmentalist fable.

Alberto Vazquez has had a long career as an illustrator, both for publishers and the news media. He is the author of numerous graphic novels published in various countries, and a two-time winner of the Goya Award for Best Animated Short Film. He also won a Goya for Best Feature-Length Animated Film in 2017. He is the recipient of more than one hundred international awards, and his films have been selected for prestigious festivals and events throughout the world, among them the Festival de Cannes, the European Film Awards, the Toronto International Film Festival, the Annecy International Animation Film Festival, the Clermont-Ferrand International Short Film Festival, Animafest Zagreb, and Slamdance.

War Pony / Ratni poni

RATNI PONI prati isprepletene priče dva mlada muškarca iz plemena Oglala Lakota koji odrastaju u Pine Ridge rezervatu. Sve što dvadesettrogodišnji Bill želi je da postigne nešto u životu. Odlučan je da ostvari američki san, bilo tako što će raditi kao dostavljač ili kao uzgajivač pudlica. U međuvremenu, dvanaestogodišnji Matho ne može dočekati da odraste i očajnički žudi za pohvalom svog mladog oca. Kada serija impulsivnih odluka preokrene Mathov život naglavačke, on shvata da nije u stanju izaći na kraj sa teškim izazovima svijeta odraslih. Povezani zajedničkom borbom da se uklope i osjete pripadnost, dva mlada muškarca bore se sa pitanjima identiteta, porodice i gubitka dok prelaze svoj jedinstveni put prema odrastanju.

Gina Gammell karijeru je počela kao producentica i rediteljica kratkih muzičkih videa i reklama.

Svoj prvi dugometražni film producirala je 2017, godinu dana kasnije sa Rileyem Keoughom osniva nezavisnu produkcijsku kompaniju Felix Culpa, a 2019. režira svoj prvi dugometražni film RATNI PONI, na kojem je radila i kao koscenaristica.

E WAR PONY follows the interlocking stories of two young Oglala Lakota men growing up on the Pine Ridge Reservation. At twenty-three, Bill just wants to make something of himself. Whether it’s delivering goods or breeding poodles, he is determined to hustle his way to the American Dream. Meanwhile, twelve-year-old Matho can’t wait to become a man and is desperate for approval from his young father. When a series of impulsive decisions turns Matho’s life upside down, he finds himself unequipped to deal with the harsh realities of the adult world. Bound by their shared search for belonging, each of the youths grapple with identity, family, and loss, as they navigate their unique paths to manhood.

Gina Gammell started her career producing and directing short-format music videos and commercials. In 2017, she produced her first feature-length film.

Klimatske promjene, sve očigledniji raskoli u zajedničkoj društvenoj strukturi, ali i ratni sukobi, obilježja su našeg iskustva 21. stoljeća. Posljedice toga jesu i mogle bi nastaviti da budu tragične. Prijetnja našoj egzistenciji podjednako je realna kao i kolektivna anksioznost koju osjećamo.

Evropski kratki filmovi u našoj ovogodišnjoj selekciji ne bježe od tih napetosti. Bilo nježno, duhovito, brutalno ili konceptualno, trinaest izabranih filmova iz 10 evropskih zemalja govore o životu, o vremenu u kojem živimo, o svijetu. Zagledani su u budućnost i postavljaju pitanja: gdje to idemo i da li želimo tamo ići?

Kada vidite našu stvarnost, potpuno apsorbiranu u virtuelni svijet u filmovima SALTO UNAZAD (Nikita Diakur) i SRETNA NOVA GODINA, JIM (Andrea Gatopoulos), možda sebi postavite pitanje iz drugog navedenog filma: “Čini se da pokušavamo dostići tačku u kojoj ćemo se zadovoljiti kopijom… a moje pitanje za tebe, Jim, jeste – a šta onda?”

Nakon što vidite stampeda morževa potaknuta klimatskim promjenama u nevjerovatnom filmu POVLAČENJE (Evgenia Arbugaeva, Maxim Arbugaev), grad koji polako nestaje pod vodom u filmu ISPOD JEZERA (Thanasis Trouboukis), perverznu komodifikaciju biljaka u filmu AGRILOGISTIKA (Gerard Ortín Castellví) i iskusite stavljanje čvrstih moralnih principa na kušnju u filmu AKORDI (Estibaliz Urresola Solaguren), možda se upitate: “Možemo li nastaviti da stavljamo vlastiti komfor ispred zaštite prirode?”

U filmovima MARIA SCHNEIDER, 1983 (Elisabeth Subrin), OGRADA (Tomasz Wolski) i DIVOVSKA RAŽA (Anton Bialas) stojimo na strani ljudi koji odbijaju da nastave biti historijski prihvatljive žrtve. Ti filmovi navode na pitanje: “Na kakve patnje prećutno pristajemo kada se ne suprotstavimo moći vlasti gladnih zlostavljača?”

Konačno, u filmovima DJEVOJAČKO VEČE (Lola Cambourieu, Yann Berlier), TREŠNJE (Vytautas Katkus), NISAM JE STIGAO VOLJETI (Anna Fernandez De Paco) i NOĆ U LEOPOLISU (Nikon Romanchenko) uranjamo u nježne portrete ljubavi i gubitaka. U ovom trenutku, ne mogu da se lično ne upitam: “Šta ako nam ljubav dođe u obliku koji ne znamo ili nismo naučeni da prepoznamo? Koliko puta, nakon gubitka, srce može zarasti?”

Želim vam čudesan festival i nadam se da sebi postavljate prava pitanja.

E Environmental change, glaring fissures in our shared social fabric, and war mire our twenty-first century experience. And the consequences are, and may well continue to be, tragic. The threat to our existence is as real as the collective anxiety we feel.

This year’s European Shorts selection does not shy away from these anxieties. Whether tenderly, amusingly, brutally, or conceptually, these thirteen films from ten European countries remind us about life, about the times we live in, about the world at large. They keep an eye on the future and ask: Where are we going? And, Do we really want to go there?

When you see our realities being fully absorbed into the virtual in BACKFLIP (Nikita Diakur) and HAPPY NEW YEAR JIM (Andrea Gatopoulos), you might ask yourself, to quote from the latter: “It’s like we are trying to reach a point where we are happy with the copy… and my question to you, Jim, is: What then?”

When you see climate-change provoked walrus stampedes in the jawdropping HAULOUT (Evgenia Arbugaeva and Maxim Arbugaev), when you observe a town slowly sinking in UNDER THE LAKE (Thanasis Trouboukis), when you perceive the perversion of plant commodification in AGRILOGISTICS (Gerard Ortín Castellví), and experience moral fortitudes put to the test in CHORDS (Estibaliz Urresola Solaguren), you might ask yourself: Can we afford to keep choosing our creature comforts over the environment?

In MARIA SCHNEIDER, 1983 (Elisabeth Subrin), THE FENCE (Tomasz Wolski), and MANTA RAYA (Anton Bialas), we stand in arms with those people who refuse to be historically acceptable victims anymore. They demand: What suffering do we silently agree to when we don’t challenge the power of bullies?

Finally, with BACHELORETTE PARTY (Lola Cambourieu and Yann Berlier), CHERRIES (Vytautas Katkus), I DIDN’T MAKE IT TO LOVE HER (Anna Fernandez De Paco), and LEOPOLIS NIGHT (Nikon Romanchenko), we delve into tender portrayals of love and loss. Here, I cannot help but wonder: What if love comes in a form we are not equipped or educated to perceive? And: After a loss, how many times can a heart grow back?

I wish you a wondrous festival, and hope I hope we ask ourselves all the right questions.

FILMOGRAFIJA / FILMOGRAPHY:

2022 – BACKFLIP (kratki animirani film / short animation)

2018 – FEST (kratki animirani film / short animation)

2017 – UGLY (kratki animirani film / short animation)

Pokušati napraviti salto unazad nije bezopasno. Možeš slomiti vrat ili pasti na glavu ili nezgodno izvrnuti ručni zglob. Ništa od toga nije lijepo i za tu namjenu će bolje poslužiti digitalni avatar. On vježba na 6-core procesoru uz pomoć mašinskog učenja. Procesor nije najnoviji, ali ipak broji šest skokova po pokušaju. Jedan pokušaj traje minut vremena, dakle 360 skokova po satu i 8.640 po danu.

Nikita Diakur je filmski stvaralac s adresom stanovanja u Njemačkoj. Negovi filmovi UGLY i FEST su osvojili naklonost kritike na festivalima širom svijeta. Njegov osobeni stili podrazumjeva dinamičku kompjutersku simulaciju koja podržava spontanost, slučajnost i greške.

E Attempting a backflip in real life is not safe – you might break your neck, or land on your head, or land badly on your wrists. None of that is nice, so the avatar does the trick. It practices on a 6-core processor with the help of machine learning. The processor is not the newest but still calculates six jumps per iteration.

Troje protagonista filma u Parizu, koji postepeno postaje sve autoritarniji i na pragu je pucanja, traga za poetičnim, oslobađajućim plažama. Svako od njih na svoj način kreira situaciju u kojoj se može pronaći osjećaj lakoće, prigušeni vrisci se mogu pustiti i promijeniti realnost tjerajući je ka novim horizontima.

Anton Bialas rođen je 1990. godine u Parizu. Prethodna tri filma – DERRIÈRE NOS YEUX, À L’ENTRÉE DE LA NUIT i GROUPE MERLE NOIR – predstavio je na prestižnim filmskim festivalima (Berlinale, Visions du Réel, FID, Brive), a u novom filmu DIVOVSKA RAŽA, koji je njihov nastavak, portretira marginalna bića koja tragaju za trenutkom u kojem će biti moguće odbaciti osjećaj beznađa koji ih okružuje.

E Three characters in search of poetic and liberating breaches in a gradually authoritarian Paris,on the verge of implosion. Each in their own way crafts a situation, where, alternately, a sense of lightness can be found, suffocated screams can rise up, and reality can be distorted into new horizons.

Anton Bialas was born in 1990 in Paris. His previous three films, BEHIND OUR EYE, AT THE ENTRANCE OF THE NIGHT, and THE BLACKBIRD GROUP were screened in prestigious festivals including the Berlin International Film Festival, Visions du Réel, FIDMarseille, and the Brive Film Festival. His new film, MANTA RAY, is a continuation of these films, which are portraits of marginal beings who seek the moment where the sense of disenchantment that surrounds them can be overthrown.

Svaki dan njegovog života je isti sve dok jednoga dana ne primijeti nekoga ko pokušava preplivati rijeku. Taj plivač je Mohammad, palestinski imigrant. Pawel je konačno pronašao nekoga s kim može razgovarati.

Damian Kocur je diplomirao kinematografiju u Školi filma Krzysztof Kieślowski Univerziteta Silesia u Katowicama. Njegovi filmovi su prikazani i nagrađeni na brojnim filmskim festivalima širom svijeta (AFI DOCS, Camerimage, Gdynia Film Festival, Watersprite Film Festival).

E Somewhere in Europe, somewhere in Poland lives Paweł – a simple man who works on a small river ferry close to his village. He spends most of his day taking the villagers to the other side of the river. Every day looks the same, but one day he notices somebody traversing the river by swimming. This person is Mohammad, an immigrant from Palestine. At last, there is somebody Paweł can talk to.

Damian Kocur is a graduate of cinematography from the Krzysztof Kieślowski Faculty Film School of the University of Silesia in Katowice, Poland. His films have been shown at and won awards from numerous festivals all over the world, among them AFI Docs, the International Film Festival of the Art of Cinematography Camerimage, the Gdynia Film Festival, and the Watersprite Student Film Festival.

PRIRODNA SMRT JEDNOG MIŠA nije samo film o spašavanju miševa, odbijanju banana ili žrtvovanju u borbi protiv hipokrizije svakodnevnog života u “razmaženim i kultivisanim” dijelovima svijeta. To je također film o osobi crvenih ruku koja ulazi u pustoš svoje savjesti kako bi otkrila da li i kako može biti dobra osoba.

Katharina Huber je 2012. završila studij u Akademiji za medijsku umjetnost u Kölnu. Dvije godine kasnije dobija DAAD stipendiju i odlazi u London kako bi upisala magistarski studij na Kraljevskom koledžu za umjetnost. Od povratka u Köln radi kao samostalna umjetnica i filmska autorica.

E THE NATURAL DEATH OF A MOUSE is not only about saving mice or refusing bananas or making sacrifices against the hypocrisies of the daily life in the “spoiled and cultivated” parts of the world – it is also about a person with red arms, who is entering the desert of her conscience to find out whether and how she can be a good human.

Katharina Huber studied at the Academy of Media Arts Cologne until 2012. In 2014, she went to London with a DAAD scholarship for her MA at the Royal College of Art. Since returning to Cologne, she has been working as a freelance independent artist and filmmaker.

2019 – ROUGH SKIN (kratki film / short film)

U jednom napuštenom skladištu gomila ljudi pleše kao jedno uz tehno muziku, s tempom od 145 otkucaja u minuti. Među njima je transrodni Dustin i njegova ekipa: Felix, Raya i Juan. Kako noć odmiče, kolektivna histerija pretvara se u slatku melanholiju, a euforija u čežnju za nježnošću.

Naïla Guiguet je diplomirala na Odsjeku za scenarij na La Femisu. Tokom studija je snimila kratki studentski film ROUGH SKIN. Naïla Guiguet je također i DJ i jedna od utemeljiteljica tehno kolektiva Collective Possession. Ovaj kolektiv organizuje LGBTQI+ tehno večernje događaje. Tokom jedne od tih večeri snimila je i svoj prvi profesionalni kratki film DUSTIN.

E In an abandoned warehouse, a crowd is dancing as one to 145 BPM techno music. Among them is Dustin, a young transgender and their crew Felix, Raya, and Juan. As the night draws on, collective hysteria morphs into sweet melancholy, and euphoria into a yearning for tenderness.

Naïla Guiguet graduated from the La Fémis Scenario Department, where she made the short film ROUGH SKIN. She is also a DJ and a founding member of the collective Possession, which organises LGBTQI+ techno evenings. During one these evenings, she shot DUSTIN, her first short film as a professional.

Dva brata se veselo igraju skrivača dok njihovi roditelji pripremaju večeru. Dok jedan dječak odbrojava, drugi se brzo sakriva u komodu punu čaša. Prolaze sekunde... pa minute... pa godine... decenije. Svako malo, dječak proviri kroz bočnu ivicu komode. Sa svakim pogledom, svi i sve što mu je nekada bilo blisko blijedi, dok u konačnici ne ostane sam.

Daniel Gray je studirao likovnu umjetnost na Velškom univerzitetu u Cardiffu. Nakon što je kraće vrijeme bio profesionalni slikar, Daniel je počeo eksperimentisati s animacijom. Trenutno živi u Mađarskoj. Režirao je veliki broj komercijalnih projekata, a bio je i gostujući profesor na više univerziteta, te je vodio niz radionica kreativne animacije.

E Two brothers entertain themselves with a joyous game of hide-andseek while their parents cook dinner. As one boy counts, the other hides in a small cabinet full of glasses. Seconds pass… then minutes… years… and decades. Every so often, the boy peeks out of the sideboard. With each glance, everything and everyone he once knew changes and fades, until he is left alone.

Daniel Gray studied Fine Art at the University of Wales Cardiff. After a stint as a represented painter, Daniel started experimenting with animation. He currently lives in Hungary. Gray has directed many commissioned works. He has also served as a visiting lecturer at universities and has led a number of creative animation workshops.

U POPLAVI RIJEČI prati priču tri prevodioca Međunarodnog kaznenog tribunala za bivšu Jugoslaviju. Oni prevode šokantna svjedočanstva očevidaca, žrtava i počinilaca zločina, nikada ne dopuštajući da na njih utiču vlastite emocije, osjećanja i životna iskustva. Za razliku od položaja koji su zauzimali u tribunalu, u ovom filmu prevodioci i njihovi glasovi i iskustva u centru su pažnje.

Eliane Esther Bots je magistrirala s pohvalama na Nizozemskoj filmskoj akademiji u Amsterdamu. Predaje na Univerzitetu za umjetnost u Utrechtu.

E IN FLOW OF WORDS follows the narratives of three interpreters of the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia. They interpreted shocking testimony from witnesses, victims, and perpetrators, without ever allowing their own emotions, feelings, or personal histories to be present. Contrary to their position at the tribunal, this film places their voices and experiences front and centre.

Eliane Esther Bots graduated cum laude from the Master of Film programme of the Netherlands Film Academy in Amsterdam. She lectures on the moving image at the University of the Arts in Utrecht.

Bartholomew Whisper danas je išao doktoru. Tamo je upoznao administrativno osoblje sklono eksperimentalnim operativnim zahvatima i samotne MRI mašine. Barem je rastuća rupa u njegovoj glavi bivala sve ljepša. Gabriel Böhmer je umjetnik iz Züricha koji živi u Velikoj Britaniji, a interesuju ga sjećanja i apsurdi. Gabrijel je 2013, nakon što je objavio roman “Dani tvrdokrilaca”, odustao od karijere korporativnog konsultanta. Dvije godine kasnije objavio je knjigu ilustracija “Sutra ću izaći napolje”, a 2017. počeo je animirati svoje ilustrovane priče. Njegovi filmovi su nagrađeni na brojnim festivalima, uključujući festivale Fantoche i Clermont-Ferrand.

Zaključani u vlastitim stanovima, ljudi iz susjedstva u kameru prepričavaju sitne probleme iz života u zajednici. Malo po malo, gomila primjedbi postaje dovoljno velika da čovjeka natjera da poludi.

Laurène Fernandez je inicijalno bila zainteresovana za grafičko slikarstvo, te je završila jednu godinu naprednog studija primijenjene umjetnosti u školi Estienne u Parizu prije nego što se, u istoj instituciji, prebacila na studij animacije Diplôme de Métiers d’Art. Sa željom da izgradi karijeru na filmu i da radi na kratkim filmovima, nastavila je obrazovanje u Školi filma i dizajna La CinéFabrique, gdje trenutno završava treću godinu studija.

E Locked up in their own apartments, some neighbours tell the camera about the little troubles of life in their community. Little by little, when everything piles up, it’s enough to drive one mad.

Laurène Fernandez, initially interested in drawing, took a year of advanced studies in the applied arts at the École Estienne in Paris before joining the Diplôme de Métiers d’Art in animated cinema in the same institution. Wishing to pursue a career in cinema and to work on film shoots, she joined La CinéFabrique, where she is currently completing her third year of studies.

Dvije žene razgovaraju o svojim tijelima. Sjećaju se kako su se u djetinjstvu osjećale ugodno u svome tijelu, ali taj osjećaj jedinstva sa tijelom izgubio se kada su odrasle. Kako je moguće da ti vlastito tijelo postane neprijatelj?

Zašto je to normalno?

Marta Massa je rediteljica koja sama snima vlastite filmove, a trenutno živi na potezu između Sardinije i Škotske.

James se budi prestravljen noćnim moroma. Progone ga sjećanja na mrtve, na brojne bitke u kojima je učestvovao tokom Drugog svjetskog rata. On svake noći sanja isti strašni san… i budi se u svome malom krevetu. Šest mu je godina, rođen je 1996, ali ipak sve te uspomene pripadaju njemu.

Muškarac koji se predstavlja kao predstavnik Kamore preuzima kovertu s novcem za troškove bijega sina gospođe i gospodina Lo Giglio. Damiano je otišao prije više od 18 godina, a ovaj redovni sastanak u stanu Lo Gigliovih način je na koji mu se pokušavaju približiti.

Nicola Prosatore je kao vrlo mlad počeo ispitivati granice filmske forme koja ga najviše fascinira: mješavine filmskih žanrova i čiste naracije. Kao rezultat toga, režirao je promotivne videouratke i reklame, dokumentarne serije i televizijske programe za RAI, MTV, Discovery i Sky. Svoj prvi dugometražni televizijski film snimio je 2017. za Sky Cinema.

E A man presenting himself as a Camorra agent picks up an envelope containing money to cover the expenses of the absconding of Mr and Mrs Lo Giglio’s son. Damiano has been away for more than eighteen years, and this regular appointment is his parents’ way of being closer to him.

Nicola Prosatore started to test himself with what fascinates him the most at a very young age: the mix of genres and pure storytelling. From this drive was born his direction of promos and commercials, documentary series and television programmes for RAI, MTV, Discovery, and Sky channels. In 2017 he made the first TV feature film for Sky cinema.

Brainwashed: Sex-Camera-Power / Isprani mozgovi: seks-kamera-moć

Feministička filmska teorija decenijama se bavi problematikom muškog pogleda i njenim brojnim nijansama i implikacijama. Termin “muški pogled” prvi put je upotrijebila Laura Mulvey 1975. godine, jedna od ključnih sagovornica u filmu ISPRANI MOZGOVI. Nadogradujući se na ključne radove Laure Mulvey i drugih vodećih feminističkih autorica, uključujući Judith Butler, bell hooks i Angelu Carter, Nina Menkes predstavlja vlastitu perspektivu aktivne rediteljice i filmske snimateljice. Služeći se isječcima iz gotovo 200 filmova s A-liste, te drugih značajnih filmova snimljenih u periodu od 1896. do danas, Menkes ukazuje na koji način je već sam izgled kadra (tačka gledišta, rez, pokret kamere, rasvjeta i dizajn zvuka) omogućio perpetuiranje seksističkog, binarnog pristupa kroz historiju filma, te ozbiljne implikacije ovog fenomena na svakodnevni život.

Nina Menkes je magistrirala je filmsku produkciju na UCLA-u 1989. godine. Dobitnica je Fulbright stipendije za akademska istraživanje na Bliskom istoku, te članica Katedre za film na Institutu za umjetnost u Kaliforniji. Njeni filmovi su prikazani na brojnim međunarodnim filmskim festivalima, uključujući festivale u Cannesu, Rotterdamu, Locarnu i Torontu, te festival Sundance. Dokumentarni film MASSAKER, koji je snimila i režirala, premijerno je prikazan na Međunarodnom filmskom festivalu u Berlinu, gdje je osvojio nagradu FIPRESCI. Austrijski Međunarodni filmski festival u Beču uvrstio je njen dugometražni film THE BLOODY CHILD iz 1996. godine na listu najboljih filmova snimljenih u proteklih 50 godina.

E Feminist film theorists have been exploring the issue of the male gaze and its various nuances and implications for decades. The term “male gaze” was first used in 1975 by Laura Mulvey – a key interviewee in BRAINWASHED. Nina Menkes builds on the vital work of Mulvey and other essential feminist writers, including Judith Butler, bell hooks, and Angela Carter, bringing her own perspective as a working director and cinematographer to the project. Using almost two hundrred film clips from A-list and other notable movies, from 1896 through the present, Menkes exposes specifically how shot design (point of view, framing, camera movement, lighting, and even sound design) has functioned to perpetuate the sexist binary throughout cinematic history – and its serious implications for our real lives.

Nina Menkes graduated with an MFA in film production from UCLA in 1989. She has received Fulbright Research Awards to the Middle East and is a member of the film faculty at the California Institute of the Arts. Her films have screened at the Sundance Film Festival, the Festival de Cannes, the International Film Festival Rotterdam, the Locarno Festival, and the Toronto International Film Festival, among others. Her documentary MASSACRE, for which she was also cinematographer, premiered at the Berlin International Film Festival and won the FIPRESCI Prize. Her 1996 feature film THE BLOODY CHILD was selected as one of the best films of the past fifty years by the Vienna International Film Festival in Austria.

Dreaming Walls: Inside the Chelsea Hotel / Zidovi koji sanjaju

Rastrzani strahom i haosom, nakon osam godina građevinskih radova i života pod skelama, 51 stanovnik hotela Chelsea priprema se za dolazeću pobunu, dok ostali protestuju ili se zaključavaju u svojim sobama. Usred tog haosa, film propituje izvore mita o hotelu Chelsea i izazove koji ga očekuju u budućnosti dok se njegovi stanovnici, prodani kapitalistima, kao i sami zidovi hotela suočavaju s historijskom prekretnicom u svom životu.

Amélie van Elmbt studirala je u Školi filma Instituta za medijske umjetnosti (IAD) u Belgiji, a potom je sarađivala s francuskim rediteljem Jacquesom Doillonom kao kasting direktorica i pomoćnica režije.

Godine 2011. producirala je i režirala svoj prvi dugometražni film LA TÊTE LA PREMIÈRE, te je film prikazan u ACID sekciji Filmskog festivala u Cannesu i nagrađen glavnim priznanjem New York First Time festivala. Na festivalu u New Yorku upoznala je Martina Scorsesea, koji je producirao njen drugi dugometražni film DRÔLE DE PÈRE, premijerno prikazan na Filmskom festivalu Tribeca i nagrađen Velikom nagradom Međunarodnog filmskog festivala Heartland.

Maya Duverdier je studirala umjetnost u Francuskoj, a zatim 2014 magistrirala film u École cantonale d’art de Lausanne sa filmom JEANNE SANS ARC. Uz rad na igranim i dokumentarnim filmovima, aktivno se bavi i različitim poslovima na televiziji i u reklamnoj industriji. ZIDOVI KOJI SANJAJU njen je prvi dugometražni dokumentarni film.

E Caught between fear and frenzy, after eight years of and living amid scaffolding and constant construction, some fifty-one residents of the Chelsea Hotel prepare for imminent upheaval, while others protest or hole up in their rooms. Against this chaotic backdrop, DREAMING WALLS explores the utopian origins that contributed to the Chelsea’s mythical stature and questions the challenges it confronts in the future, as its residents, sold to capitalism, and its walls themselves face a turning point in their common history.

Amélie van Elmbt studied at the IAD Film School in Belgium, then worked as a casting director and assistant director for director Jacques Doillon. In 2011, she directed and produced her first featurelength film, HEADFIRST, which screened in the ACID section at the Festival de Cannes and won the main award at the New York First Time Festival. There, she met Martin Scorsese, who produced her second feature THE ELEPHANT & THE BUTTERFLY, which had its premiere at the Tribeca Festival and won the Grand Prize at the Heartland International Film Festival.

Maya Duverdier first studied art in France before taking a master’s degree in film at the École cantonale d’art de Lausanne, graduating in 2014 with her film JEANNE SANS ARC. Alongside her work on fiction and documentary projects, she is active in various roles in the film, television and advertising industries. DREAMING WALLS is her first feature-length documentary.

Iako se prvenstveno bavio muzikom i filmom, istraživao je i druge forme umjetnosti kao što su ples, slikarstvo, kiparstvo, videokolaž, pisanje scenarija, gluma i teatar. Njegov kreativni opus i lični arhivi obuhvataju pet miliona različitih djela. MOONAGE DAYDREAM prvi je film nastao uz podršku Bowiejeve zadužbine. Zadužbina je 2017. godine filmskom autoru Brettu Morgenu odobrila neograničen pristup Bowiejevom arhivu, uključujući sve master snimke, kako bi napravio umjetnički i životan filmski zapis o kreativnom životu pokojnog umjetnika. Tokom pet godina rada, Morgen je kreirao filmsko iskustvo koje ne robuje pravilima žanra, a bavi se pitanjima duhovnosti, prolaznosti, izolacije, kreativnosti i vremena, te omogućava slavnom umjetniku da se predstavi vlastitim riječima.

Brett Morgen je američki reditelj dokumentarnih filmova, producent, pisac i urednik, te autor nekih od najznačajnijih i najuspješnijih dokumentaraca snimljenih tokom protekle dvije decenije. Morgen je ranih devedesetih godina prošloga vijeka studirao mitologiju i američku historiju na Koledžu Hampshire. Par godina kasnije upisao je studij filma na Univerzitetu u New Yorku. Njegov diplomski film NA KONOPCIMA 1999. godine premijerno je prikazan na Filmskom festivalu Sundance, gdje je osvojio specijalnu nagradu žirija. Film je bio jedan od najuspješnijih dokumentaraca snimljenih te godine, osvojivši brojne nagrade, a 2000. godine je nominovan za Oscara za najbolji dokumentarni film. Pored rada na filmu i televiziji, Morgen od 2000. godine režira reklame za kompaniju Anonymous Content. Režirao je preko dvije stotine videospotova za neke od vodećih svjetskih muzičkih grupa.

E David Bowie was one of the most prolific and influential artists of his time. Working most notably in music and film, he also explored various other art forms: dance, painting, sculpture, video collage, screenwriting, acting, and live theatre. Bowie’s creative output and personal archives span over five million assets. MOONAGE DAYDREAM is the first film sanctioned by the Bowie estate. In 2017, the estate allowed filmmaker Brett Morgen unfiltered access to Bowie’s archives, including all master recordings, to create an artful and life-affirming journey through the late artist’s creative life. Over five years, Morgen constructed a genre-defying cinematic experience that grapples with spirituality, transience, isolation, creativity, and time to reveal the celebrated icon in his own voice.

Brett Morgen is an American documentary film director, producer, writer, and editor who has created some of the most groundbreaking and acclaimed documentaries of the past twenty years. Morgen studied mythology and American history at Hampshire College in the early 1990s. A few years later, he enrolled in New York University’s graduate film programme. His thesis film, ON THE ROPES, had its premiere at the 1999 Sundance Film Festival, where it received the Special Jury Award. The film was one of the most critically acclaimed documentaries of the year, went on to win several awards, and was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Documentary in 2000. In addition to his film and television work, Morgen has been directing commercials at Anonymous Content since 2000. He has directed more than two hundred spots for some of the world’s biggest brands.

Nothing Compares

Dugometražni dokumentarni film o fenomenalnom usponu Sinéad O’Connor do svjetske slave i o tome kako je zbog svog buntovnog karaktera protjerana iz svijeta pop-muzike. Fokusiran na proročke riječi i djela Sinéad O’Connor tokom petogodišnjeg perioda u njenom životu (1987-1992), film se iz moderne feminističke perspektive osvrće na zaostavštinu ove neustrašive krčiteljice novih puteva.

Kathryn Ferguson nagrađivana je rediteljica rođena u Belfastu čiji su inovativni i angažovani dokumentarni filmovi prikazani širom svijeta. NOTHING COMPARES je njen prvi, nedavno završeni, dugometražni dokumentarac koji je snimila nakon što se čitavu deceniju fokusirala na kratke filmove u kojima je propitivala identitarna pitanja, rodne politike i zajednicu.

E A feature documentary that tells the story of Sinéad O’Connor’s phenomenal rise to worldwide fame, and how her iconoclastic personality resulted in her exile from the pop mainstream. Focusing on prophetic words and deeds across a five-year period from 1987 to 1992, the film reflects on the legacy of this fearless trailblazer through a contemporary feminist lens.

Kathryn Ferguson is a Belfast-born award-winning director whose innovative and boundary-pushing documentary work has screened globally. After a decade of focusing on short-form work centred on identity, gender politics, and community, she recently completed her first feature-length documentary, NOTHING COMPARES.

Rewind & Play / Premotaj i pusti

U decembru 1969. Thelonious Monk stigao je u Pariz. Prije svog večernjeg koncerta, snimio je emisiju za francusku televiziju. Sačuvani sirovi snimci napravljeni za potrebe emisije otkrivaju ranjivog Theloniousa Monka, čovjeka koji je plijen agresivnih stereotipa od kojih pokušava pobjeći. Film prikazuje prekretnicu za ovog velikog umjetnika koji želi živjeti samo za svoju muziku, ali i portret isprazne, mučno besmislene medijske mašine.

Alain Gomis je francusko-senegalski filmski autor, a studirao je historiju umjetnosti na Sorbonni. Kao reditelj je debitovao 2022. godine filmom L’AFRANCE, pričom o problemima migranata u Francuskoj, te osvojio Srebrenog leoparda na Filmskom festivalu u Locarnu. Njegov film ANDALUCIA je 2012. prikazan na Međunarodnom filmskom festivalu u Veneciji. S filmom AUJOURD’HUI (TEY) učestvuje u takmičarskom programu Berlinalea i osvaja Zlatnog pastuha na panafričkom filmskom i televizijskom festivalu Fespaco. Na Berlinale se vraća 2017. s filmom FÉLICITÉ te osvaja Veliku nagradu žirija takmičarskog programa, a naknadno, po drugi put, nagradu Zlatni pastuh. Film je predstavljao Senegal u utrci za Oscara Američke filmske akademije i uvršten je u uži izbor za Oscara za najbolji film na stranom jeziku.

E December 1969. Thelonious Monk arrives in Paris. Before his evening concert, he records a programme for French television. The rushes that have been preserved show us a rare close-up of Monk, prey to the violent factory of stereotypes from which he is trying to escape. The film becomes the crossing of this great artist, who would like to exist only for his music, and a portrait of a media machine as hollow and ridiculous as it is revolting.

Alain Gomis is a Franco-Senegalese filmmaker. He studied art history at the Sorbonne. He made his directorial debut in 2002 with L’ AFRANCE, a film about the struggles of migrants in France, which won a Silver Leopard at the Locarno Festival. His film ANDALUCIA was shown at the Venice International Film Festival in 2012. AUJOURD’HUI (TEY), shown in competition at the Berlin International Film Festival, won a Golden Stallion at Fespaco. He returned to the Berlinale in 2017 with FÉLICITÉ. The film won the competition’s Grand Jury Prize, a second Gold Stallion at Fespaco, and represented Senegal at the Academy Awards where it was shortlisted for Best Foreign Language Film.

SKROZ Sarajevo / Totally Sarajevo

Muzičko-dokumentarni film o sarajevskom r’n’r bendu Skroz. Film govori o članovima benda, njihovim počecima, ratnim iskustvima, poslijeratnim turnejama, uspjesima i neuspjesima. O prijateljstvima iz mladosti, ratu i Sarajevu kao gradu koji je bio presudan za nastajanje benda, ali i pjesama frontmena i tekstopisca Adnana Šarana. Film otvoreno govori o životnim i porodičnim problemima i iskustvima aktera, o razuzdanom životu i narkoticima kao dijelu subkulture, te ovisnosti kao važnom psihološkom, društvenom i porodičnom problemu modernog društva.

E This music documentary about Sarajevo rock band Skroz looks at the lives of the band’s members, their beginnings, war experiences, post-war tours, successes, and failures. It examines friendships from youth, war, and Sarajevo as a city that is crucial to the formation of both the band and the songs of frontman and lyricist Adnan Šaran. TOTALLY SARAJEVO talks boldly about problems and experiences with narcotics through open conversation – on the one hand, about drugs as part of a subculture and, on the other, about addiction as an significant psychological, social, and family problem.

Posvećeno: Sergei Loznitsa / Tribute To Sergei Loznitsa

Retrospektiva Sergeja Loznitse nudi uvid u sve glavne aspekte njegovog opusa: opservacijske dokumentarne filmove koje se fokusiraju na gibanje kolektiva u savremenoj epohi, dokumentarce sastavljene od arhivskog materijala s fokusom na historijske traume, cjelovečernje igrane filmove, te filmove eseje koji otkrivaju autora sklonog eksperimentu. Naravno, cijeli niz tema i motiva prelazi ovako ocrtane granice: status kolektiva, grupe i mase, traumatični odnos historije i sadašnjosti, mehanizmi političke i društvene moći i kontrole, pitanje pristanka na vladajuće ideološke i moralne vrijednosti i norme – čineći Loznitsu jednim od najprovokativnijih filmaša današnjice. Dokumentarni film MAJDAN predstavlja monumentalno svjedočanstvo o „Euromajdanu“ u Kijevu 2014. Nesumnjivi protagonista filma jeste masa demonstranata koji su pozivali na smjenu predsjednika Viktora Janukoviča. Bez naracije iz offa ili intervjua sa učesnicima protesta, Loznitsa se rigorozno drži totalnih planova i dugih kadrova, prepuštajući gledaocima odluku da li da se fokusiraju na pojedince, manje grupe ili cijeli kolektiv. Statične kamere pribjegavaju pokretu samo onda ako ih na to prisiljava nasilje, nakon što je na demonstrante poslana policija i vojska.

Iako iz današnje perspektive MAJDAN izgleda kao nedvosmisleno zloslutno proročanstvo ruskog ekspanzionizma, film je dokumentarna poema o solidarnosti i otporu. Loznitsa je rigorozan i kada filmove oblikuje od arhivskog materijala. Već je svojim prvim takvim ostvarenjem – OPSADOM, postavio pravila za filmove ove vrste: ne postoji ekspozitorna naracija, ni intervjui, nego samo arhivski materijal, kome je dodana zvučna kulisa koja imitira diegetski zvuk. (Ovdje moramo istaknuti doprinos dizajnera zvuka Vladimira Golovnickija, kako ovom filmu, tako i ukupnom Loznitsinom opusu.) Loznitsa ovom formulom s filmom BABIN JAR. KONTEKST stvara i neosporivi magnum opus: opominjući dokumentarni film o masakru nad preko 33.700 Jevreja, strijeljanih u nepuna tri dana, pored Kijeva 1941. godine. Iako Loznitsa ne ostavlja mjesta sumnji o okrutnosti nacista, čini se da je za njega posebno problematičan upravo odnos ukrajinske većine prema zločinu. U MOJOJ RADOSTI dobrodušni vozač kamiona Georgij odlazi na put, sa koga se, najblaže rečeno, neće vratiti. U ruskim skaskama dobrodušni i priglupi junak odlazi na put ispuniti neki teški zadatak, te usput susreće pomagače, uz koje prevazilazi svoje nedostatke. Suprotno od toga, u ovoj (per)verziji skaske, kojom vladaju korupcija, nasilje i laž, ljudi koje susreće Georgij mu žele zlo, donose nevolju, te ga skreću s puta.

Ipak, protagonista u samom finalu odbija pristati na nasilni čin korupcije, te pokreće erupciju nasilja koje barem na tren izaziva katarzu. Film je značajan i kao prva saradnja Loznitse s Olegom Mutuom, stalnim direktorom fotografije i na njegovim ostalim igranim filmovima. Loznitsa svoj drugi igrani film U MAGLI smješta u period Drugog svjetskog rata. Seljaka Sušenju dolaze strijeljati partizani, uvjereni da je Nijemcima izdao trojicu mještana. Loznitsa se opet ne odlučuje za jednu dramaturšku nit i jednostavan hronološki slijed – Sušenju i njegove nesuđene dželate pratimo kroz zasebne epizode, koje otkrivaju rašomonsku prirodu nesporazuma u kome su svi našli. Pa ipak, to što Sušenja zna da nije nikoga izdao za njega ne predstavlja nikakvu utjehu. Dok se protagonista MOJE RADOSTI na kraju filma izgubi u tmini, nakon što je simbolički kaznio zločince, Sušenju na kraju filma guta magla, bez ikakve mogućnosti da se osveti za počinjeno zlo – on sam ostaje svoja jedina meta. DONBAS je mozaik labavo uvezanih epizoda iz fiktivne države Nove Rusije koju je Moskva uspostavila u okupiranoj istočnoj Ukrajini. Već sama činjenica da je ovo Loznitsin prvi igrani film bez protagoniste – koji bi došao u konflikt s okolinom ili vlastima – prilično je indikativna. U paradržavi poput Nove Rusije, takav je pojedinac nemoguć – nasilje, korupcija i propaganda su proželi sve odnose te nema mjesta otporu. Tamo gdje su konflikti prethodne filmove gurali u smjeru nadrealizma i fantazmagorije, DONBAS naprosto dijagnosticira banalnost pristajanja na vladajuće norme, što povremeno eksplodira u grotesku. Crno-bijeli film esej PORTRET otvara kadar snježnog horizonta pritisnutog oblačnim nebom – arhetipski pejzaž ruske provincije. I njezini stanovnici su prikazani jednako anahrono. Glavninu filma čine dugi kadrovi seljaka, koji nepomično i nijemo stoje u srednjem planu, gledajući direktno prema gledaocima. Iako snimljen krajem 1990-ih, film izgleda kao arhivski materijal s početka 20. stoljeća. Limit modernizacije u ruskoj provinciji tako je prikazan već na planu forme.

U REFLEKSIJAMA reditelj opet poseže za svojevrsnim vizuelnim arhivom: zastakljenim fotografijama mladića branilaca grada, koje je Milomir Kovačević Strašni snimio u ratnom Sarajevu, a u čijim odbljescima Oleg Mutu snima grad dvadeset godina poslije rata. Superimpozicija dvije vrste građe kao da izaziva svojevrsnu kognitivnu disonancu nizom kontrasta, koji se tiču i formalnih specifičnosti medija: nepokretna i nijema fotografija vs. pokretne slike i zvuk filma. REFLEKSIJE tako podsjećaju da svaka rasprava o odnosu prošlog i sadašnjeg, ratnog i mirnodop-

Sergei Loznitsa

skog, individualnog i kolektivnog, treba uključivati i raspravu o medijskom aspektu tih odnosa. Još jedan dokumentarni film od arhivskog materijala, NOĆ U OPERI, prikazuje još jednu gomilu – ovaj put to je francuska društvena crème de la crème. Montaža u kojoj predsjednik De Gaulle i njegova svita neprekidno ponavljaju ritual ulaska u svečanu ložu izmamljuje osmijeh, no, kada na scenu izađe Maria Calas, pred nama se otvara jedan sasvim drugačiji svijet – prethodni spektakl političkog protokola razotkriva se kao isprazna šarada koja ne uspijeva dosegnuti autentičnost umjetničkog čina. Stoga se NOĆ U OPERI čita i kao duhoviti komentar o odnosu politike i umjetnosti. O tom odnosu općenito svjedoči Loznitsin cjelokupni opus: politika ljudske živote drži u šaci, oblikujući ih najdirektnije i najsnažnije, ali tek umjetnost tim životima daje smisao i značenje, uzdižući ih na nivo istinskog postojanja.

E This retrospective of films by Sergei Loznitsa offers insight into all key aspects of the director’s body of work: observational documentaries focused on collective movements in the modern era, documentaries compiled from archival footage focusing on historic traumas, dramatic features, and essay films that reveal an auteur prone to experimentation. Of course, what makes Loznitsa one of the most provocative contemporary filmmakers is his array of themes and motifs, which traverse these various categories – namely, the status of the collective, the group, and the mass; the traumatic relationship between past and present; mechanisms of political and social power and control; and issues surrounding the acceptance of dominant ideological and moral values and norms.

The documentary film MAIDAN is a monumental testament to the Euromaidan uprising in Kyiv in 2014. There is no doubt that the protagonist of the film is a mass of people demanding the resignation of then-President Victor Yanukovych. In this film without narration or interviews with protest participants, Loznitsa rigorously maintains long master shots, leaving it to the viewer to focus on individuals, groups within the crowd, or the mass gathering as a whole. The camera remains static unless forced to move to escape violence after the police and the army arrive to disperse the crowd. While through the lens of current events in Ukraine MAIDAN emerges as a clear, sinister harbinger of Russian expansionism, it is at its root a documentary poem to solidarity and resistance.

Loznitsa is equally rigorous when he assembles films from archival footage. Already with his first archival documentary, BLOCKADE, he set

the rules for his films of this kind: no voiceover, no interviews, solely archival footage and a soundtrack that mimics diegetic sound (the invaluable contribution of sound designer Vladimir Golovnicki to all Loznitsa’s films must surely be noted here). Following this formula, Loznitsa created a magnum opus with BABI YAR. CONTEXT, an awareness-raising documentary about the Nazi massacre of over 33,700 Jews who were summarily executed over a three-day period in 1941 outside Kyiv. Although Loznitsa leaves no room to doubt the cruelty of the Nazis, in parallel he appears particularly troubled by Ukrainian indifference to the slaughter.

In MY JOY, a good-natured truck driver named Georgy embarks on a trip from which he, to put it mildly, will not return. In Russian skazki – fairy tales – good-natured, simpleminded heroes undertake journeys to fulfil difficult tasks, along the way meeting other characters who help them overcome their limitations. In contrast, in this (per)version of a skazka – full of corruption, violence and lies ¬– Georgy meets people who wish him ill, bring him nothing but trouble, and divert him from his path. Still, in the end, the hero refuses to countenance a brutal act of corruption and provokes an eruption of violence that, at least for a moment, leads to catharsis. Among other things, this film is significant as Loznitsa’s first collaboration with cinematographer Oleg Mutu, who went on to serve as the director of photography on all the director’s subsequent dramatic features.

Loznitsa’s sophomore narrative feature, IN THE FOG, is set during World War II. Rebel partisans arrest the peasant Sushenya, intending to execute him on suspicion of having denounced three local members of the resistance movement to the Nazis. Here, Loznitsa opts against a single narrative timeline: instead, we follow Sushenya and his would-be executioners through separate episodes that reveal the Rashomonlike nature of a misunderstanding to which all have fallen victim. The knowledge that he had betrayed no one is of little comfort to Sushenya. Whereas at the end of MY JOY the protagonist gets lost in darkness after symbolically punishing the evildoers, Sushenya ends up lost in a fog, with no opportunity to take revenge for the injustice he has suffered – he himself remains his only target.

DONBASS is a mosaic of loosely-connected episodes from life in the fictive state of Novorossiya, established by Russia in occupied parts of eastern Ukraine. Even just the fact that this is Loznitsa’s first dramatic feature without a protagonist who could come into conflict with his community

or government is quite telling. In a para-state like Novorossiya, finding such an individual is impossible – violence, corruption and propaganda permeate all aspects of life and there is no room for resistance. While conflict as depicted in Loznitsa’s previous films gave them a surreal and phantasmagorical feel, DONBASS simply diagnoses the banality of yielding to dominant norms that occasionally morph into the grotesque. The black-and-white essay film PORTRAIT opens with a shot of a snow-covered horizon pressured by grey, cloudy sky – the archetypal landscape of rural Russia. Its residents are portrayed as equally anachronistic. The film consists primarily of long shots of peasants, who stand, motionless and mute, staring directly into the camera. Although filmed in the late 1990s, the film resembles archival footage from the early part of the twentieth century. Thus, even in its form, the film presents the limits of modernisation in rural Russia.

In REFLECTIONS, the director again reaches for something of a visual archive: Mutu films life in Sarajevo as reflected through the glass covering photographs of defenders of the city taken by the Bosnian photographer Milomir Kovacevic Strasni twenty years earlier, in 1992, during the wartime siege of the Bosnian capital. The superimposition of these two kinds of visual material results in something of a cognitive dissonance, also related to the formal characteristics of the two media form: still, mute photography vs. cinema’s moving image and sound. REFLECTIONS thus serves as a reminder that any debate about the interaction of past and present, war and peace, the individual and the collective, must also include a consideration of the meditated representation of that relationship. Another documentary constructed from archival material, A NIGHT AT THE OPERA, presents a crowd, this time the crème de la crème of French high society. The montage of president Charles de Gaulle and his entourage entering the royal box at the opera repeatedly provokes a smile, but when Maria Callas steps onstage, a completely different world emerges: the preceding spectacle of political protocol is revealed to be a worthless charade that cannot achieve the authenticity of an artistic performance. A NIGHT AT THE OPERA thus reads as a humorous commentary on the relationship between politics and art. Loznitsa’s entire body of work is in fact a testament to that relationship: politics holds human life in its grip by shaping it most directly and most profoundly, but only art gives life meaning and purpose, elevating it to the level of sublime existence.

A Night at the Opera / Noć u operi

Zasnovan na arhivskim snimcima iz pedesetih i šezdesetih godina prošloga vijeka, film nas vodi na gala predstave u Pariskoj operi kojima su prisustvovale francuske i međunarodne zvijezde, kraljevske ličnosti i šefovi država. Uz pomoć rafinirane montaže i nježnog humora, Sergei Loznitsa oživljava sjajnu epohu kada su se kraljevi i kraljice, predsjednici i filmske zvijezde penjali uz stepenice hrama Garnier kako bi štovali opernu umjetnost.

E Based on archive footage from the 1950s and 1960s, A NIGHT AT THE OPERA revisits gala soirees at the Opéra de Paris, frequented by French and international celebrities, royalty, and heads of state. With exquisite editing style and soft humour, Sergei Loznitsa revives the glamorous era when kings and queens, presidents and film stars ascended the stairs of the Garnier temple to worship the Art of Opera.

Babi Yar.Context / Babin Jar. Kontekst

U samo dva dana, 29. i 30. septembra 1941, Odred posebne namjene 4a nacističkog Eskadrona smrti C, uz pomoć dva bataljona južne regimente ukrajinske rezervne policije, bez bilo kakvog otpora lokalnog stanovništva, u klancu Babin Jar, sjeverozapadno od Kijeva, streljao je 33.771 Jevreja. Film rekonstruiše historijski kontekst ove tragedije uz pomoć arhivskih snimaka iz perioda nacističke okupacije Ukrajine i decenije nakon toga. Kada sjećanja padnu u zaborav, kada prošlost zasjeni budućnost, istina se izgovara filmskim jezikom.

E On September 29 and 30,1941, Sonderkommando 4a of the Einsatzgruppe C, assisted by two battalions of the Police Regiment South and Ukrainian Auxiliary Police, and without any resistance from the local population, shot dead 33,771 Jews in the Babi Yar ravine in the northwest of Kyiv. BABI YAR. CONTEXT reconstructs the historical setting of this tragedy through archival footage documenting the German occupation of Ukraine and the subsequent decade. When memory disappears into oblivion, when the past overshadows the future, it is the voice of cinema that articulates the truth.

Donbass / Donbas

U regiji Donbas u istočnoj Ukrajini vodi se hibridni rat koji uključuje otvoreni oružani sukob, ali i široko rasprostranjena ubistva i pljačke čiji su počinioci članovi separatističkih bandi. U Donbasu rat se naziva mirom, propaganda se prikazuje kao istina, a mržnja proglašava ljubavlju. Putovanje kroz

Donbas niz je neobičnih avantura u kojima se groteskno i dramatično isprepliću poput života i smrti.

Ovo nije priča o jednoj regiji, jednoj zemlji ili o jednom političkom sistemu. Ovo je priča o svijetu lažnih identiteta u vremenu nakon istine, priča o svakom od nas.

E In the Donbass, a region of Eastern Ukraine, a hybrid war takes place, involving an open armed conflict alongside killings and robberies perpetrated by separatist gangs on a mass scale. Here, war is called peace, propaganda is uttered as truth, and hatred is declared to be love. A journey through the region unfolds as a chain of curious adventures, where the grotesque and dramatic are as intertwined as life and death. This is not a tale of one region, one country, or one political system; it is about a world lost in post-truth and fake identity. It is about each and every one of us.

Maidan / Majdan

MAJDAN je hronika građanskog ustanka protiv režima predsjednika Janukoviča u Kijevu u zimu 2013/2014. godine. Film prati tok ustanka: od mirnog protesta pola miliona ljudi na trgu Majdan do krvavih uličnih borbi između demonstranata i pripadnika specijalne policije. MAJDAN je portret buđenja jednog naroda i njegovog ponovnog otkrivanja vlastitog identiteta. Loznitsa se izdiže iznad dnevne politike i fokusira se na prirodu narodne pobune kao društvenog, kulturnog i filozofskog fenomena. Snažna mješavina entuzijazma, herojske borbe, terora, hrabrosti, ljudskih težnji, međuljudske solidarnosti, narodne kulture, strasti i samožrtvovanja, MAJDAN je zapanjujuće filmsko platno na kojem su izmiješani klasični filmski jezik i urgentnost dokumentarističkog stila.

E MAIDAN chronicles the civil uprising against the regime of president Yanukovych that took place in Kyiv in the winter of 2013–14. The film follows the progress of the revolution: from peaceful rallies, half a million strong, in the Maidan square, to bloody street battles between protestors and riot police. MAIDAN is a portrait of an awakening nation, rediscovering its identity. Director Sergei Loznitsa rises above current political issues and looks at the nature of the popular uprising as a social, cultural, and philosophical phenomenon. A powerful mix of enthusiasm, heroic struggle, terror, courage, aspiration, people’s solidarity, folk culture, passion, and self-sacrifice, MAIDAN is a stunning cinematic work combining classical filmmaking style and documentary urgency.

Otrazheniay / Refleksije. Rediteljska verzija / Reflections. Director’s Cut

Život u današnjem Sarajevu prikazan je kroz refleksije na staklenim pokrovima crno-bijelih fotografija njegovih branitelja, koje je bosanskohercegovački fotograf Milomir Kovačević snimio 1992. godine tokom opsade grada. Film REFLEKSIJE je jedan od segmenata omnibusa MOSTOVI SARAJEVA u kojem je trinaest evropskih reditelja i rediteljica propitivalo ulogu Sarajeva u proteklih sto godina evropske historije i današnju percepciju Sarajeva u Evropi.

E REFLECTIONS shows life in contemporary Sarajevo, reflected through glass, of the black-and-white photographs of the city’s defenders, taken by the Bosnian photographer Milomir Kovačević in 1992 during the Siege of Sarajevo. The film is a segment of the omnibus film BRIDGES OF SARAJEVO, in which thirteen European directors explore the theme of Sarajevo: what the city has represented in European history over the past hundred years, and what it stands for today.

Portret / Portrait

PORTRET je bezvremeni film o ljudskom dostojanstvu i gracioznosti. Portret jednostavnih seljaka – ne samo da mi, kao gledatelji, zurimo u njihova lica, već i oni gledaju nas. Ovo umjetničko djelo mijenja mišljenja. Predstavlja povratak originalnoj svrsi filmske kamere da dokumentira ljudski život i vječnost prirode.

Film MOJA RADOST priča je o vozaču kamiona Georgiju koji odlazi iz svoga rodnog grada sa tovarom robe, ali prisiljen je pogrešno skrenuti na autoputu, te završava usred nedođije. Georgij pokušava pronaći pravi put, ali postepeno, protiv vlastite volje, biva uvučen u svakodnevni život jednog ruskog sela. U mjestu gdje gruba sila i instinkt za preživljavanje nadjačavaju ljudskost i zdrav razum, priča vozača kamiona završava u slijepoj ulici.

E MY JOY is the tale of Georgy, a truck driver. He leaves his hometown with a load of goods but, when he is forced to take a wrong turn on the motorway, he finds himself in the middle of nowhere. Georgy tries to find his way but, gradually and against his will, he becomes drawn into the daily life of a Russian village. In a place where brutal force and survival instincts overcome humanity and common sense, the truck driver’s story heads for a dead end.

V Tumane / U magli / In the Fog

Zapadna granica SSSR-a 1942. godine. Regija je pod njemačkom okupacijom, a lokalni partizani vode brutalnu kampanju otpora okupatoru. Nedaleko od sela u kojem željezničar Sušenja živi s porodicom, voz je skrenut iz tračnica. Nevinog Sušenju hapse sa grupom sabotera, ali njemački oficir odluči da njega neće pogubiti i oslobađa ga. Glasine da je Sušenja izdajnik brzo se šire, te partizani Burov i Voitik dolaze iz šume kako bi mu se osvetili. Dok svoju žrtvu sprovode šumom, partizani upadaju u zasjedu i Sušenja ostaje jedan na jedan sa svojim ranjenim neprijateljem. Duboko u prastaroj šumi, gdje ne postoje ni prijatelji ni neprijatelji, a linija između izdaje i heroizma se briše, Sušenja je prisiljen napraviti moralan izbor u nemoralnim uslovima. Film je zasnovan na romanu Vasilja Bikova.

E The Western frontier of the USSR, 1942. The region is under German occupation, and local partisans are fighting a brutal resistance campaign. A train is derailed not far from the village,where Sushenya, a railway worker, lives with his family. While he is innocent, Sushenya is nevertheless arrested with a group of saboteurs, but the German officer decides not to hang him with the others and sets him free. Rumours of Sushenya’s treason spread quickly, and partisans Burov and Voitik arrive from the forest to exact revenge. As the partisans lead their victim through the forest, they are ambushed, and Sushenya finds himself one-to-one with his wounded enemy. Deep in an ancient forest, where there are neither friends nor enemies, and where the line between treason and heroism disappears, Sushenya is forced to make a moral choice under immoral circumstances. Based on the novel by Vasil Bykov.

Uvod / Introduction

Program Suočavanje s prošlošću od svojih početaka ima jasnu misiju: da pokrene iskren dijalog o recentnoj prošlosti naše regije koji je preduslov za rješavanje problema proisteklih iz raspada bivše Jugoslavije koji još uvijek opterećuju naša društva. Tokom proteklih sedam godina podijelili smo mnoge razorno potresne, ali inspirativne priče iz svih krajeva svijeta. Suočeni sa tehnološkim izazovima, klimatskom krizom i ratom u Ukrajini, u ovom trenutku više propitujemo našu zajedničku budućnost nego našu zajedničku prošlost. Ali dok je naš um zaokupljen i zbunjen budućnošću, nekako se čini da su određene lekcije iz prošlosti važne za ovaj trenutak.

U ovogodišnjem izdanju programa ugostit ćemo autore koji su se proslavili filmovima o stvarnim događajima, te duboko ganuli naša srca i naš um. Istovremeno, u programu ćemo predstaviti neke nove autore, dovoljno hrabre ne samo da zagrebu površinu stvarnosti u kojoj živimo već i da preispitaju položaj pojedinaca čije su živote snažno obilježile traume iz naše nedavne prošlosti. Dok akumuliramo nova traumatska iskustva, stara još uvijek nismo procesuirali, provarili niti izliječili.

Program će otvoriti kultni film VALCER SA BAŠIROM Arija Folmana, koji je 2008. godine promijenio uvriježenu ideju o tome kakav dokumentarni film može biti. Film je zasnovan na ličnom iskustvu autora u vrijeme dok je 1982. služio izraelsku vojsku te kroz animaciju istražuje misteriozne tokove naših sjećanja i doživljaja i načina na koje trauma podiže vlastite štitove. Veliko nam je zadovoljstvo što ćemo s publikom podijeliti Arijev posljednji, prekrasan, izazovan i sada relevantniji nego ikada film GDJE JE ANA FRANK. Dodatno, ugostit ćemo Michaela Winterbottoma, filmskog majstora snažno povezanog sa Sarajevom, a koji će predstaviti svoj posljednji film

JEDANAEST MAJSKIH DANA, koji je režirao zajedno sa Mohammadom Sawafom. Delikatnim, ličnim pristupom temi, Michael i Mohammed u filmu ukazuju na posljedice napada na Gazu 2021. godine. U sklopu masterclass programa Sarajevo Film Festivala, bit će nam velika čast razgovarati sa Arijem Folmanom i Michaelom Winterbottomom o njihovom radu i fokusu na teme iz stvarnoga života i sa njima povezanim traumama. U sklopu programa posvećenog filmovima proslavljenih autora, predstavit

ćemo djelo nizozemske rediteljice Mijke de Jong. Film predstavlja veoma intiman portret putovanja Fatime i Zahre, izbjeglica koje pokušavaju stići do Evrope. Osim toga, publika će se moći podsjetiti na sudbine stanovnika Vukovara 1991. i 2008. godine u filmu Eduarda Galića ŠESTI AUTOBUS. Američki reditelj Joseph Pierson u filmu KAKO SE SADA ZOVE OVA ZEMLJA? predstavlja inspirativnu priču bosanskohercegovačke novinarke Aide Čerkez iz perioda opsade Sarajeva.

Drugi dio programa predvodi nova generacija filmskih autora, poput Nataše Urban, koja u svome nagrađivanom filmu POMRAČENJE astrološki događaj iz 1999. godine koristi kao lajtmotiv za kolektivnu traumu srbijanskog društva nakon skorašnjih ratova u bivšoj Jugoslaviji. U programu ćemo također predstaviti i film B4 bosanskohercegovačkog autora Alena Šimića o njegovom povratku kući, na mjesto gdje su njegovi roditelji ubijeni. Film REZNICA srbijanskog reditelja Davora Marinkovića pruža uvid u živote ljudi koji su raseljeni u ratu i sve od tada žive u izbjegličkim kampovima.

Program Suočavanje s prošlošću ugostit će i 30 mladih ljudi iz regije Zapadnog Balkana u okviru sekcije “Iz perspektive mladih”, koja obuhvata seriju panel-diskusija, zatvorenih razgovora i debata o mirovnom aktivizmu i praksama pomirenja. “Iz perspektive mladih” organizujemo u saradnji sa Regionalnim uredom za saradnju mladih, građanskim forumom za mirovnu službu – ForumZFD i PRO-budućnost projektom Američke agencije za međunarodni razvoj.

Program Suočavanje s prošlošću realizuje se uz podršku Fondacije Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung (FES).

E In these unprecedented times, when it seems the world we used to know might cease to exist in the near future, truth-seeking and factchecking are more important than ever. But the anxieties of the world we have left behind will follow us into the new order. If we have learned anything over the past year, I daresay it is that our personal lives can be

turned upside-down in a matter of moments. The Dealing with the Past programme has had a clear mission since its start: to engage in honest dialogue about our region’s recent past as a prerequisite to resolving the problems that stem from the Yugoslav Wars, which still strain our societies. Over the last seven years, we have shared many gut-wrenching but inspiring stories from around the world. With technological challenges, the climate crisis, and war in Ukraine, today we are wondering more about our shared future than about our common past. While we are perplexed about what is to come, certain lessons from the past are valid today.

This year, Dealing with the Past welcomes directors renowned for films about real-life events that deeply touch our hearts and minds. At the same time, the programme presents new voices, authors courageous enough not only to scratch the surface of the reality we are living but also to question the positions of individuals whose lives are greatly affected by the trauma of recent events. While we are accumulating new traumas, the old ones haven’t been processed, reflected, or healed.

The programme opens with WALTZ WITH BASHIR by Ari Folman, a cult favourite that changed perceptions of what documentary film can be back in 2008. The film is based on the director’s experiences as a young Israeli soldier in 1982. Through animation, we explore the mysterious paths of memory and experience, and how trauma comes with its own shield. It is a great pleasure as well to share with our audiences Folman’s latest film, the beautiful, thought-provoking, and now more than ever relevant WHERE IS ANNE FRANK. In addition, we welcome an author who is a great friend of Sarajevo and a master of cinema: Michael Winterbottom, who presents his latest film, ELEVEN DAYS IN MAY, which he co-directed with Mohammad Sawaf. With a delicate, personal approach, the directors consider the toll of the attacks on Gaza during the 2021 Israel-Palestine crisis. As part of the Sarajevo Film Festival’s masterclasse series, it is our great honour to invite both Ari Folman and Michael Winterbottom to discuss their work and to bring focus to real-life events and traumas that are

connected to them. Continuing the programme’s spotlight on renowned filmmakers, we present ALONG THE WAY by Dutch filmmaker Mijke de Jong, who in a very intimate way portrays the journey of Fatima and Zahra, Afghan refugees trying to reach Europe. In addition, audiences have the opportunity to revisit the trauma of the battle of Vukovar and its lasting impact in Eduard Galić’s 6TH BUS. In WHAT’S THIS COUNTRY CALLED NOW, US director Joseph Pierson presents the inspiring story of Bosnian journalist Aida Čerkez during the Siege of Sarajevo.

The second part of the programme is led by a new generation of emerging filmmakers, among them Nataša Urban, who, in her award-winning film THE ECLIPSE, uses the solar eclipse of 1999 as a leitmotif to represent the collective trauma experienced by the people of Serbia in the aftermath of the Yugoslav Wars. The selection also features B4 by Bosnian filmmaker Alen Šimić, who returns to his home – the place where his parents were killed. THE CUTTING, by Serbian director Davor Markinković, gives insight into the lives of people who have been displaced after the war and have been living in camps ever since.

Dealing with the Past also is welcomes thirty young people from the Western Balkans as part of the In Youth Eyes programme, which offers a series of panels, discussions, and debates on peace activism and reconciliation practices. In Youth Eyes is organised in collaboration with the Regional Youth Cooperation Office (RYCO), forumZFD – Forum Civil Peace Service, and the USAID PRO-Future Project.

The Dealing with the Past programme is supported by the Friedrich-EbertStiftung (FES).

Along the Way / Kraj puta

Iransko-turska granica. Vidimo desetine ljudi sa ruksacima, bebama, djecom. Iznenada odjeknu pucnji. Snažni reflektori pretražuju okolinu. Dvije djevojčice trče u tamu dozivajući članove svoje porodice. Na iransko-turskoj granici, tokom pokušaja bijega u Evropu, identične blizanke Zahra i Fatima razdvojile su se od svojih sestara i majke. U panici, dok su oko njih odjekivali pucnji, djevojčice su potrčale u pogrešnom smjeru. Vratile su se u Iran, a njihova majka i sestre prebačene su u Tursku. Djevojčice stoje usred nedođije, stare 19 godina i potpuno same. Ne znaju kome mogu vjerovati, gdje je njihova porodica i šta učiniti sljedeće. U tom trenutku počinje njihovo putovanje nad kojim naizgled nemaju nikakvu kontrolu.

Mijke de Jong je nizozemska filmska autorica. Njen prvi dugometražni film HARTVERSCHEUREND prikazan je na festivalima širom svijeta, uključujući festival u Torontu, osvojio je specijalnu nagradu žirija u Locarnu, te nagradu Holandske filmske kritike. S filmom BLUEBIRD osvojila je Kristalnog medvjeda na Međunarodnom filmskom festivalu u Berlinu, a s filmom TUSSENSTAND tri nagrade Zlatno tele, od ukupno šest za koje je film nominovan. Njen film LAYLA M bio je nizozemski kandidat za Oscara te ga je Netflix otkupio za prikazivanje širom svijeta. Mijke je režirala i niz televizijskih serija i filmova, a 2021. je osvojila Zlatno tele za doprinos filmskoj umjetnosti na Nizozemskom filmskom festivalu u Utrechtu.

E The border of Iran and Turkey. Dozens of people with backpacks, babies, children. Suddenly shots are heard. Bright lights search the environment. Two girls run into the darkness, calling for their families. Zahra and Fatima, identical twins, are separated from their sisters and their mother during their flight to Europe. They wind up back in Iran, while their mother and sisters are driven into Turkey. Nineteen years old, all alone, they don’t know who to trust, where their family is, or what to do next. Here begins a journey that they seem to have no control over.

Eleven Days in May / Jedanaest majskih dana

Tokom jedanaest dana maja 2021. godine u Gazi je ubijeno više od šezdesetero djece. Oni nikada ne bi smjeli biti zaboravljeni. Uz naraciju Kate Winslet i muziku Maxa Richtera, ovaj film predstavlja svojevrsni dnevnik tog perioda. Uz pomoć arhivskih snimaka i ličnih svjedočanstava, film donosi priču svakog djeteta kao individue koje je imalo iste nade, snove i ambicije kao i druga djeca širom svijeta.

Michael Winterbottom rođen je u Blackburnu, Engleska. Na početku karijere radio je za britansku televiziju, a filmom se počeo baviti sredinom devedesetih godina prošloga vijeka.

E Over the course of eleven days in May 2021, more than sixty children were killed in Gaza. They should never be forgotten. Narrated by Kate Winslet, with music by Max Richter, this film is a diary of those days. Through archives and personal testimony, the film tells the story of each child as an individual with many of the same hopes, dreams, and ambitions of children everywhere.

Michael Winterbottom was born in Blackburn, England. He began his career working in British television and began working as a filmmaker in the mid-90s. His films have been screened at the most prestigious festivals around the world, including the Berlin International Film Festival, the Festival de Cannes and the Venice International Film Festival.

Formørkelsen / Pomračenje / The Eclipse

Jedanaestog augusta 1999. veći dio Evrope zaokupljen je potpunim pomračenjem sunca koje trenutačno čitavu Zemlju ostavlja u mraku. Dok svijet slavi, većina stanovnika Srbije zatvara se u svoje domove i nuklearna skloništa u strahu od mjesečeve sjene. Koristeći ovaj događaj kao metaforu za nečistu savjest nacije zbog posljedica njenih političkih izbora, autorica ovog esejističkog dokumentarnog filma suočava se sa ratnom i kriminalnom prošlošću svoje zemlje i zlom koje je još uvijek na slobodi.

Nataša Urban rođena je 1977. u srbijansko-rumunjskoj porodici na sjeveru Srbije, a živi i radi u Oslu. Diplomirala je na Odsjeku za fotografiju i video Univerziteta za umjetnost u Bukureštu, a potom magistrirala fotografiju na Univerzitetu umetnosti u Beogradu. Od 2005. godine profesionalno se bavi režijom dokumentarnih filmova i montažom. Njeni filmovi prikazani su na više od stotinu međunarodnih filmskih festivala i emitovani u programu brojnih TV kuća, uključujući ARTE, RAI, ZDF, DR2, YLE, ORF, RSI i PBS.

E On 11 August, 1999, most of Europe was engrossed by a total solar eclipse, which briefly enveloped Earth in darkness. While the world at large celebrated, most of Serbia’s population, fearful of the lunar shadow, barricaded themselves in their homes and nuclear bunkers. Using this event as a metaphor for a nation’s unclean conscience about the consequences of its political choices, in this essay documentary director Nataša Urban confronts her country’s wartime and criminal past, and the evil that is still on the loose today.

Nataša Urban lives and works in Oslo. Born into a Serbo-Romanian family in northern Serbia in 1977, she graduated from the Department of Photography and Video of Bucharest’s University of Arts, and holds a master’s degree in photography from the University of Arts in Belgrade. She has worked as a documentary film director and editor since 2005. Her films have been screened at more than one hundred international film festivals and aired on major television networks worldwide, including ARTE, RAI, ZDF, DR2, YLE, ORF, RSI, and PBS.

Reznica / Cutting

REZNICA predstavlja dvije generacije izbjeglih lica koje i dalje pokušavaju da stvore nov identitet nakon raspada Jugoslavije. Mirjana i Borislav su proveli veći dio svojih života u kolektivnom centru u Srbiji. Sada se spremaju za putovanje u prošlost i za budućnost u kojoj žele da imaju dom i puste korijene.

Davor Marinković je rođen 1991. godine u Srbiji. Odrastao je u Vicenzi (Italija), gdje i dalje živi i radi.

Šesti autobus / 6th Bus

Tokom bitke za Vukovar, mlada Amerikanka pokušava pronaći čovjeka iz svoje prošlosti, koji nikad neće biti pronađen. Riječ je o potrazi za identitetom i istinom na mjestu gdje je istina selektivna, neuhvatljiva i čak prestrašena. Ispod te potrage ključa potreba za vjerom, vezom i otkupljenjem.

Eduard Galić, rođen 1936. u Trogiru, hrvatski je filmski i televizijski reditelj i scenarist. Stvarateljska mu je karijera duga preko 45 godina. Režirao je brojne televizijske drame, televizijske serije, dokumentarne filmove, tri igrana filma i sto raznih televizijskih formi.

E During the battle of Vukovar, a young American is trying to locate a man from her past, but he is never to be found. It is a search of identity and truth at a place where truth is selective, elusive, and even feared. A quest for faith, connection, and redemption simmers beneath the search.

Eduard Galić, born in Trogir in 1936, is a Croatian film and television director and screenwriter. With a career spanning more than forty-give years, he is considered the most prolific director in Croatia.

Vals Im Bashir / Valcer sa Baširom / Waltz with Bashir

Jedne večeri u baru stari prijatelj reditelja Arija Folmana ispriča mu kako ga u snu svake noći proganja 26 divljih pasa te kako broj zvijeri iz noći u noć ostaje isti. Dvojica prijatelja zaključuju kako to sigurno ima veze s njihovom službom u izraelskoj vojsci tokom prvog rata u Libanu ranih osamdesetih godina prošloga vijeka. Začudo, Ari se ne može sjetiti niti jednog detalja iz tog razdoblja svog života. U želji da riješi tu zagonetku, odluči posjetiti i intervjuisati stare prijatelje i suborce razbacane širom svijeta. Osjeća potrebu da sazna istinu o sebi i o tom periodu svoga života. Dok Ari sve dublje uranja u misteriju, sjećanja mu počinju navirati u formi nadrealnih slika.

Ari Folman je izraelski reditelj, scenarista i filmski kompozitor. Kao scenarista je radio na više uspješnih izraelskih televizijskih serija, uključujući nagrađivanu seriju BeTipul koja je poslužila kao osnov HBO serije NA TERAPIJI. Režirao je film VALCER SA BAŠIROM, nominovan za Oscara, kao i film KONGRES.

E One night at a bar, an old friend tells director Ari Folman about a recurring nightmare in which he is chased by twenty-six vicious dogs. Every night, the same number of beasts. The two men conclude that there’s a connection to their Israeli Army mission in the first Lebanon War of the early 1980s. Folman is surprised that he can’t remember a thing about that period of his life. Intrigued by this riddle, he decides to meet and interview old friends and comrades around the world. He needs to discover the truth about that time and about himself. As Folman delves deeper and deeper in to the mystery, his memory begins to creep up in surreal images.

Ari Folman is an Israeli director, screenwriter, and film score composer. He has written for several successful Israeli television series, including the award-winning IN THERAPY, which was the basis for the HBO series IN TREATMENT. He is the director of the Academy Award-nominated WALTZ WITH BASHIR and THE CONGRESS.

What’s This Country Called Now? / Kako se sada zove ova zemlja?

Film KAKO SE SADA ZOVE OVA ZEMLJA? zasnovan je na iskustvu Aide Čerkez, Bosanke koja je tokom opsade Sarajeva radila kao novinarka. Aida je 1994. godine došla na ideju da povodom osamdesete godišnjice Sarajevskog atentata na austrougarskog prestolonasljednika Franza Ferdinanda pokuša pronaći nekoga od svjedoka tog prelomnog historijskog događaja. Pronašla je devedesetogodišnjeg Ismeta, koji je u vrijeme atentata imao deset godina. Ismet je bio svjedok pucnja koji je bio povod za početak Prvog svjetskog rata i nastavio je živjeti u Sarajevu tokom burnih godina koje su uslijedile. Aida intervjuiše Ismeta i sa njim dijelil vlastito viđenje života u ratu.

Joseph Pierson predsjednik je produkcijske kompanije Cypress Films Inc. koju je osnovao u New Yorku 1987. godine. Producirao je i režirao nezavisni igrani film EVENHAND, koji je prikazan na više od 25 filmskih festivala širom svijeta, uključujući Festival američkog filma u Deauvilleu, te festivale u Tribeci i Edinburgu. Film EVENHAND premijerno je prikazan na TV-kanalu Sundance. Joseph trenutno obavlja funkciju predsjednika upravnog odbora Fondacije braće Rockefeller. S pohvalom je magistrirao studijsku umjetnost na Koledžu Middlebury u Vermontu.

E WHAT’S THIS COUNTRY CALLED NOW? is based on the experiences of Aida Čerkez, a Bosnian woman who worked as a reporter throughout the Siege of Sarajevo. In 1994, on the eightieth anniversary of the assassination of the Archduke Franz Ferdinand, Aida had the idea of finding a witness to that seminal event in world history. She found Ismet, now ninety years old, who was ten years old on that fateful day in 1914. He witnessed the shot that triggered the First World War and continued to live in Sarajevo through the years of conflict that followed. Aida interviews Ismet and in the process shares her own perspective on life during wartime.

Joseph Pierson, President of Cypress Films, Inc., founded the New York-based production company in 1987. His producing and directing credits include the independent feature EVENHAND, which screened at more than twenty-five film festivals worldwide, including the Tribeca Film Festival, the Edinburgh International Film Festival, and the Deauville American Film Festival. EVENHAND had its premiere on the Sundance Channel. Pierson currently serves as Chair of the Board of Trustees of the Rockefeller Brothers Fund. He majored in studio art at Middlebury College, Vermont, graduating with departmental honours.

Where Is Anne Frank? / Gdje je Ana Frank?

GDJE JE ANA FRANK? počinje čudom: Kiti, imaginarna prijateljica kojoj je Ana Frank pisala u svome slavnom dnevniku, oživljava u današnjem Amsterdamu. Nesvjesna da je prošlo već 75 godina, Kiti je uvjerena da ako je ona živa, onda mora biti živa i Ana. GDJE JE ANA FRANK? prati Kiti tokom njene potrage za voljenom prijateljicom širom današnje Evrope. Naoružana dragocjenim dnevnikom i uz pomoć svoga prijatelja Petera, koji vodi tajno sklonište za nedokumentovane migrante, Kiti korača Aninim stopama, sve do njene tragične smrti u holokaustu. Dezorijentisana našim slomljenim svijetom i nepravdama koje djeca izbjeglice trpe, Kiti želi ostvariti Anin cilj. Zahvaljujući njenoj iskrenosti, Kiti šalje poruku nade i velikodušnosti budućim generacijama.

Ari Folman je izraelski reditelj, scenarista i filmski kompozitor. Kao scenarista je radio na više uspješnih izraelskih televizijskih serija, uključujući nagrađivanu seriju BeTipul koja je poslužila kao osnov HBO serije NA TERAPIJI. Režirao je film VALCER SA BAŠIROM, nominovan za Oscara, kao i film KONGRES.

E WHERE IS ANNE FRANK begins with a miracle: Kitty, the imaginary friend to whom Anne Frank wrote in her famous diary, comes to life in present-day Amsterdam. Unaware that seventy-five years have gone by, Kitty is convinced that if she is alive, then Anne must be alive too. WHERE IS ANNE FRANK tells the story of Kitty’s quest across contemporary Europe to find her beloved friend. Armed with the precious diary and with help from her friend Peter, who runs a secret shelter for undocumented refugees, Kitty follows Anne’s traces, from the Annex to her tragic end in the Holocaust. Disoriented by our broken world, and the injustices that child refugees endure, Kitty wants to fulfill Anne’s cause. Through her honesty, she presents a message of hope and generosity addressed to future generations.

Dan ljudskih prava / Human Rights Day

A New Generation’s Fight for Human Rights

I ove godine, pod pokroviteljstvom Kraljevine Nizozemske, Sarajevo Film Festival organizovat će program 14. Dan ljudskih prava, koji uključuje projekciju filma SLUČAJ NOVE VELIČINE Anne Shishove. Suprotstavljanje kršenju ljudskih prava ostaje vodeći princip ovog programa. Nažalost, trenutno svjedočimo razarajućim posljedicama kršenja ljudskih prava koje sprovodi ruski režim u ratu u Ukrajini. Upravo zbog toga smo odlučili prikazati ovaj film široj publici te dodatno uključiti mlade aktiviste iz regiona u diskusiju nakon projekcije filma.

Ove godine sa zadovoljstvom objavljujemo da proširujemo naš program, i to radionicom povodom Dana ljudskih prava s mladim aktivistima starosti od 18 do 25 godina iz Bosne i Hercegovine i Zapadnog Balkana. Radionica se organizuje u partnerstvu s Institutom KULT i Mladim evropskim ambasadorima. Kao i prethodnih godina, program obuhvata panel-diskusiju i uvodne riječi. Panel će moderirati filmski kritičar Tue Steen Mueller.

Uvod Tue Steena Muellera:

Jedan moj ruski prijatelj napisao mi je ne tako davno: “Prije nekoliko dana… Dvije žene i njihovo petero djece, starosti od 7 do 11 godina, privedeni su ispred Ukrajinske ambasade u Moskvi. Djeca su nacrtala plakat sa sloganom NEĆEMO RAT i krenula s njim. Svo sedmero je privela policija. Prvo su ih zadržali u policijskom kombiju, a onda su ih doveli u policijsku stanicu Presnenski. Isprva su sve uhapšene htjeli zadržati u stanici, ali su djeca i njihove majke ipak pušteni. Sada roditelje čekaju sud i novčane kazne. Boje se oduzimanja roditeljskih prava, traže advokata za ljudska prava…”

Iznenađeni? Ne, pretpostavljam da niste ukoliko pratite izvještaje koji dolaze iz Rusije. Prije rata u Ukrajini, išao sam u Rusiju na filmske događaje i poznajem mnogo filmskih autora, prijatelja s kojima sam pričao o životu koji prolazi dok nisi zauzet nečim drugim osim snimanjem filmova. Uvijek s oprezom da ne upadneš u nevolju tokom demonstracija. Kao što je Anna Shishova, rediteljica SLUČAJA NOVE VELIČINE, filma izabranog za ovogodišnji Dan ljudskih prava, u jednom intervjuu izjavila: “Već 10 ili 20 godina pravni sistem u Rusiji udaljava se u totalitarnom pravcu. Imamo mnogo novih zakona. Jedan od tih zakona nalaže da, ako kažeš nešto loše protiv vlasti, mogu te staviti u zatvor. Drugi zakon kažnjava ekstremističke organizacije, što znači da ste krivi ako kažete nešto protiv vlasti unutar grupe.”

To su riječi koje sam čuo iznova i iznova kada bih posjetio Sankt Peterburg ili Moskvu, često izgovorene uz neočekivanu ironiju, ismijavajući

režim i njegove lidere. Nakon 24. februara 2022. godine nisam putovao u Rusiju, a mnogi filmski autori napustili su zemlju. Brutalnost je sve veća, demonstranti su zatvoreni. Brutalnost u ratu protiv Ukrajine je neopisiva. Nema više ironije, već potrebe za kontinuiranim dobrim novinarstvom i dokumentarcima poput SLUČAJA NOVE VELIČINE.

Film: Anja Pavlikova, 17 godina starosti. Nalazi se u sudnici unutar užasne staklene ograde, koju tako dobro znamo iz filmova o ruskom pravosudnom sistemu. Njeni roditelji sjede ispred stakla. Kamera hvata Anjino nervozno lice. Izgleda kao da je na rubu sloma. Strah! Sudac ulazi u prostoriju i čita presudu: Anja je osuđena na 3 godine zatvora zbog učešća u grupi mladih naziva „Nova Veličina“… Početak vrhunskog filma. Film Ane Shishove je ono što dokumentarac treba biti: on dokumentuje i tumači, traži promišljanje, ima snažan emocionalni uticaj na publiku. On govori o mladima koji su ćaskali na internetu i raspravljali o svemu i svačemu, uključujući i društvena i politička pitanja. On ostaje uz roditelje, dok brzim potezima oslikava portret majke.

Ono za što nismo znali, barem to vrijedi za mene, jesu vještine s kojima režim radi s doušnicima, koji su se – kako to film tako dobro pokazuje –infiltrirali među mlade, pozvali ih da imaju svoju “kancelariju” i naveli ih da idu na demonstracije s lecima, sve dok nisu bili uhapšeni jer su govorili protiv vlade i sl. Anja je bila jedna od tih mladih, snimljenih nadzornim kamerama postavljenim od Tajne službe. U prostoriji u koju se stalno vraća s glavnim doušnikom na slici. Apsurd!

Nasuprot mnogim drugim filmovima o opozicionarima iz Rusije, poput onih o Navaljnom, Borisu Nemcovu, Ani Politkovskoj, SLUČAJ NOVE VELIČINE prati Aninu porodicu, posebno njenu majku koja strah pretvara u štrajk glađu, a sebe u jednu od mnogih političkih aktivistkinja o kojima premalo slušamo.

Film je okarakterizovan kao “jezivi portret intenziviranog slamanja protestiranja i slobodnog izražavanja u Putinovoj Rusiji“ (Sheffield DocFest). Istina!

Samo zamislite: od 30 članova u deklaraciji UN-a o ljudskim pravima, koliko bi bilo relevantno za diskusiju nakon projekcije filma. Puno njih, zar ne?!

Borba nove generacije za ljudska prava /

E Under the auspices of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, the 2022 Sarajevo Film Festival organises its annual 14th Human Rights Day programme, which includes a screening of Anna Shishova’s THE NEW GREATNESS CASE. Speaking out against human rights violations remains the guiding principle of this festival programme. Currently, we are seeing the devastating consequences of the Russian regime’s human rights abuses in the case of the war in Ukraine. With this in mind, we have decided to show this film to general audiences and to include young activists from the region in the discussion.

We are delighted to announce that this year’s Human Rights Day programme includes a workshop for young activists aged between 18 and 25 from Bosnia and Herzegovina and the Western Balkans. The workshop is organised in partnership with KULT and Young European Ambassadors. As in previous years, the programme also features a panel discussion and opening remarks. The panel’s moderator is film critic True Steen Mueller.

Introduction by Tue Steen Mueller:

“One of my Russian friends wrote this to me not long ago: ‘A few days ago … two women and their five children aged 7 to 11 were detained at the Ukrainian Embassy in Moscow. The children made a ‘No War’ poster and went with it. All seven were detained by the police. At first, they were kept in a paddy wagon; then they were taken to the Presnenskoye police department. Initially, all those who had been arrested were going to be left at the station, but the any children and their mothers were released. Now parents are waiting for court appearances, fines, and they are afraid they will be deprived of parental rights. They are looking for a human rights lawyer….’

“Surprised? No, I guess not, if you follow the reports coming out of Russia. I used to go to Russia for film events and I know a lot of filmmakers, friends with whom I have talked about how life passes while you are not busy doing something other than making films. Always being careful not to get into trouble when demonstrations take place. As Anna Shishova, the director of THE NEW GREATNESS CASE, which has been chosen for this Human Rights Day event said in an interview: ‘For 10 or 20 years, the legal system in Russia has drifted in a totalitarian direction. We have many new laws. One of those laws says that if you say something bad against authority, you can be put in jail. Another law punishes extremist organisations, which means you are guilty if you say something against authority within a group.’

“Words I have heard again and again when visiting St. Petersburg or

Moscow. Often said with a twist of irony, making fun of the regime and its leaders.

“Since 24 February 2022, I have not travelled to Russia – and many filmmakers have left the country. The brutality has increased, demonstrators are knocked down and imprisoned. And the brutality in the war against Ukraine is indescribable. There is no more irony – there is a need for constant good journalism and documentaries like THE NEW GREATNESS CASE.

“The film: Anya Pavlikova. Seventeen years old. She is in a courtroom, inside the terrible glass enclosure we know so well from films about the Russian justice system. Her parents sit in front of the glass. The camera catches Anya’s nervous face: she seems to be on the edge of a breakdown. Fear! A judge enters the room and reads out the verdict: Anya is sentenced to three years in prison for her participation in a group of youngsters called the New Greatness… The beginning of a superb film.

“Shisova’s film is what a documentary should be: it documents; it interprets; it asks for reflection; it has a strong emotional impact on the audience. It tells the story of young people who were chatting on the internet discussing all kinds of matters, including the social and the political. And it stays with the parents and sketches a gripping portrait of the mother.

“What is new here, at least for me, is the skill with which the regime works with informers, who – as the film shows so well – infiltrated the youngsters, invited them to have their own “office” and pushed them to go to demonstrations with leaflet, until eventually they were arrested for speaking out against the government, etc. Anya was one of those captured by the surveillance cameras set up by the secret service. In a room that comes back again and again with the main informer in the picture. Absurd!

“Unlike many other films about opposition that have come from Russia, like those on Navalny, Boris Nemtsov, and Anna Politkovskaya, THE NEW GREATNESS CASE follows Anya’s family, especially her mother, who turns fear into a hunger strike and herself into one of the many political activists we hear too little about.

“The film has been characterised as ‘a chilling portrait of the intensified crackdown on dissent and free expression in Putin’s Russia’ (Sheffield DocFest). True!

“Just imagine: Of the 30 articles in the UN declaration of Human Rights, how many would be relevant for a discussion after the film screening. Quite a lot I would say!”

The New Greatness Case / Slučaj nove veličine

Anja je bila tipična tinejdžerka koja je sanjala o tome da život u Rusiji učini boljim. Uhapšena je u martu 2018. i osuđena na zatvorsku kaznu po optužbi da je formirala ekstremističku grupu sa ciljem nasilnog svrgavanja vlasti. Tokom tri naredne godine njena majka Julia očajnički se borila da dokaže da je njena kći nevina. Borba za pravdu i praktična, detaljna spoznaja pravog stanja stvari u državi Juliju su iz apolitične građanke pretvorile u strastvenu aktivisticu za ljudska prava.

Anna Shishova je autorica dokumentarnih filmova s adresom stanovanja u Tel Avivu. Diplomirala je modernu rusku historiju na Državnom univerzitetu u Moskvi, a zatim upisala studij dokumentarnog filma u Institutu za kinematografiju Gerasimov. Učestovala je u međunarodnoj dokumentarističkoj radionici Američka revija filma u organizaciji Odjela za obrazovanje i kulturu Sjedinjenih Američkih Država i Škole za filmsku umjetnost Univerziteta Južne Karoline. Njena dva dokumentarna filma KATYA i ON THE EDGE osvojila su veliku naklonost kritike i osvojila više nagrada u zemlji i inostranstvu. Radi kao nezavisna umjetnica i snima dokumentarne filmove i reklame.

E Anya was an ordinary teenager who dreamed of making life in Russia better. In March 2018, she was arrested and incarcerated on charges of forming an extremist group with the aim of violently overthrowing the government. During three following years, her mother Julia desperately struggles to prove her daughter’s innocence. Fighting for justice and learning the real state of affairs step-bystep, Julia has been transformed from an apolitical citizen into a passionate human rights activist.

Anna Shishova is a documentary filmmaker based in Tel Aviv. She graduated from Moscow State University with a degree in modern Russian history before going on to study for her second degree in documentary filmmaking at the Gerasimov Institute of Cinematography. She took part in the American Film Showcase international documentary workshop organized by the US Department of Educational and Cultural Affairs and the USC School of Cinematic Arts. Her documentaries KATYA and ON THE EDGE enjoyed great success with critics and won several national and international awards. She has been working as a freelancer, making documentaries and commercial videos.

Uvod / Introduction

Sarajevo Film Festival, kao najznačajniji filmski festival u jugoistočnoj Evropi, pokrenuo je Mrežu festivala jadranske regije koju, pored Sarajeva, čine još Filmski festival Herceg Novi, Zagreb Film Festival i Festival autorskog filma iz Beograda. Ovi značajni festivali, iz četiri zemlje zajedničkog govornog područja, različite su veličine i profila, ali svi dijele zajedničku misiju – promovirati i predstaviti evropski audio-vizuelni sadržaj i talenat.

Cilj partnerstva među festivalima je očuvanje publike, kao i stvaranje nove, te unapređenje organizacije i realizacije festivala uz pomoć najnovijih tehnologija.

Udruženi, selektori iz Sarajeva, Zagreba, Beograda i Herceg Novog donose novu selekciju značajnih evropskih filmova, od kojih će najbolji izabrati upravo publika iz ove četiri zemlje Mreže festivala jadranske regije.

Zbrajanjem glasova publike sa sva četiri festivala, najboljem filmu po izboru publike bit će dodijeljena nagrada “Adriatic Audience Award”, koja će dobitniku biti uručena na Festivalu autorskog filma u Beogradu – nagrada u vrijednosti od 5000 eura za podsticaj kinodistribucije pobjedničkog filma.

Ovakvi naslovi, s manjih evropskih teritorija, obično ne ulaze u redovnu kinodistribuciju, a u doba globalne pandemije još teže pronalaze put do svoje publike. Zajedništvo u radu, i u idejnom i u operativnom smislu, izrodilo je selekciju u kojoj preovladavaju upravo priče o kolektivnom, iako se u svim tim kolektivima opet nađe pojedinac koji se izdvaja nekom svojom borbom. To su slike Evrope nekad i danas, iz vizure budućih velikana sedme umjetnosti.

E As South-East Europe’s leading film event, the Sarajevo Film Festival spearheaded the creation of the Network of Festivals in the Adriatic Region in collaboration with the Herceg Novi Film Festival, the Zagreb Film Festival and the Belgrade Festival of Auteur Film. These four significant festivals in four countries share the same language and are of different profile and size – but they have the same mission: to promote and present European audio-visual content and talent.

The goal of the network is to retain existing audiences and attract new ones, as well as to build up the overall organisational and operational capacity of member festivals through the introduction of the latest technology.

Together, the festival programmers from Sarajevo, Zagreb, Belgrade and Herceg Novi have crafted a festival programme that showcases some of the most important new European films. The winning film of the programme will be decided by the audiences in the four participating countries.

The audience votes will be amalgamated to determine the most popular film of the programme, which will be presented with the Adriatic Audience Award at the Belgrade Festival of Auteur Film, and is accompanied by a prize of €5,000 to support the theatrical distribution of the winning film.

The films in the programme, originating in small European nations, typically cannot secure theatrical distribution and over the last year have faced additional obstacles in reaching wider audiences due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Through working together and sharing both ideas and operational tasks, the programmers have selected a line-up dominated by films about collective endeavours, typically centred on one notable individual. These films speak of Europe, both old and new, as seen through the eyes of the future masters of the seventh art.

Alma Viva

Kao i svakoga ljeta, mala Salomé se tokom raspusta vraća u rodno selo smješteno u planinama Portugala. Djevojčicin bezbrižni odmor prekida iznenadna smrt bake. Dok se odrasli svađaju oko organizacije sahrane, Salomé proganja duh žene za koju su svi tvrdili da je vještica.

Cristèle Alves Meira se obrazovala za glumicu, ali je ipak odabrala karijeru pozorišne rediteljice. Nakon toga je u Cape Verdeu režirala dokumentarni film SOM & MORABEZA, a potom još jedan BORN IN LUANDA, ovaj put u Angoli. Zatim u Portugalu snima kratke igrane filmove SOL BRANCO i CAMPO DE VÍBORAS, koji su prikazani na Filmskom festivalu u Cannesu u programu Sedmica kritike, što je bio slučaj i sa njenim narednim kratkim igranim filmom INVISÍVEL HERÓI.

E Like she does every summer, little Salomé returns to her family village nestled in the Portuguese mountains for the holidays. As the vacation begins in a carefree atmosphere, her beloved grandmother suddenly dies. While the adults are tearing each other apart over the funeral, Salomé is haunted by the spirit of the one who was considered a witch.

Cristèle Alves Meira was trained as an actor but began her career as a theatre director. She then directed a documentary in Cape Verde, SOM & MORABEZA, and one in Angola, BORN IN LUANDA, before tackling short fiction films in Portugal: SOL BRANCO and CAMPO DE VÍBORAS, which was selected for the Semaine de la Critique at the Festival de Cannes, as well as her next short film, INVISÍVEL HERÓI.

Maria, Dan i Ilinca odlaze na humanitarno putovanje koje sa grupom prijatelja s posla redovno organizuju krajem godine. U svojim velikim terenskim automobilima ,voze se planinskim putevima do udaljenih sela u kojima mještanima dijele svoje uobičajene pakete pomoći. Usput upoznaju usamljenog starca i pristanu ga odvesti do pilane u kojoj on navodno radi. Ali nakon što njihovo auto zaglavi u šumskom jarku, ispostavi se da je pilana napuštena i prisiljeni su provesti noć sa senilnim starcem, što dovodi na kušnju njihovo shvatanje empatije i društveno korisnog rada.

Radu Muntean rođen je u Bukureštu. Diplomirao je na Odsjeku za film Rumunske akademije za pozorište i televiziju 1994. godine. Režirao je i napisao sedam igranih i jedan dokumentarni film. Njegovi filmovi premijerno su prikazani u programima Quinzaine des réalisateurs i Izvjestan pogled Filmskog festivala u Cannesu, kao i na Filmskom festivalu u Locarnu. Distribuirani su u više zemalja, gdje su naišli na odličan prijem publike i kritičara.

E Maria, Dan and Ilinca are on their regular end-of-the-year humanitarian trip, organised with a bunch of friends from work. They all drive their big SUVs along mountain dirt roads to reach distant villages and offer their standard bags of goodies to the locals. On the way, they meet a lonely old man and agree to take him to a sawmill where he supposedly works. But when their car gets stuck in a ditch in the woods, the sawmill proves to be abandoned, and they’re forced to spend the night together with the senile old man, their ideas about empathy and helpfulness are challenged.

Radu Muntean was born in Bucharest. He graduated from the Romanian Theatre and Film Academy’s Film Directing section in 1994. He has directed and written seven narrative features and a documentary. His films have premiered in the Directors’ Fortnight at the Locarno Festival, and Un Certain Regard at the Festival de Cannes, have been distributed in several countries, and were well received by audiences and critics alike.

Jan, Irisin otac, kćerki tokom porodične večere saopćava da mu je dosta života. Za par mjeseci, na svoj sedamdeset i peti rođendan, ili nekad oko tog datuma, on želi okončati svoj život. Ta apsurdna vijest snažno pogađa Iris koja ni na trenutak nije očekivala nešto slično. Iz njene perspektive Jan je energičan otac, nježan djed i, sve u svemu, zdrav muškarac koji živi život punim plućima. On je trebao biti dio njenog života bar još deset godina. Takav je bio njen plan. Tako su se stvari trebale odvijati. Sve do dana kada ju je Jan upoznao sa svojim planovima.

Floor van der Meulen rođena je 1989. godine u Nizozemskoj. Studirala je audiovizuelni dizajn u Umjetničkoj akademiji WdKa u Rotterdamu i u Školi za vizuelne umjetnosti u New Yorku. Debitirala je na međunarodnoj sceni 2014. godine dokumentarnim filmom STORMING PARADISE, emitovanim u programu televizije Al Jazeera i prikazan na brojnim međunarodnim filmskim festivalima, uključujući DOK Leipzig. 9 DAYS: FROM MY WINDOW IN ALEPPO, koji je korežirala, prikazan je na Međunarodnom filmskom festivalu u Rotterdamu, festivalu DOK Leipzig i festivalu Britanskog filmskog instituta u Londonu, te je osvojio nagradu Evropske filmske akademije za najbolji evropski kratki film 2016. Njena četrdesetpetominutna drama IN EXILE nominovana je za dva “nizozemska Oscara”, te je osvojila nagradu za najbolju glumicu. Floor je potom, sa prvim dugometražnim dokumentarnim filmom LAST MALE STANDING, izabrana za Roughcut Editing Station sekciju ljetnje škole Međunarodnog festivala dokumentarnog filma u Amsterdamu. Film je premijerno prikazan na festivalu CPH:DOX u Danskoj. Floor je za NTR režirala hit seriju SKAM NLIN 2019. RUŽIČASTI MJESEC je njen prvi dugometražni igrani film.

E During a family dinner, Iris receives the news from her father Jan that he’s had enough of life. In a few months – on or near his seventy-fifth birthday – he wants his life to come to an end. This absurd news is like a punch to the gut: Iris didn’t see it coming at all. As far as she’s concerned, Jan is an energetic father, a caring grandfather, and an altogether healthy man living life to the full. He was supposed to be part of her life for at least ten more years. That was the idea. Her idea. That was how it would go. Until today.

Floor van der Meulen was born in the Netherlands in 1989. She studied audiovisual design at the Rotterdam WdKa Art Academy and the School of Visual Arts in New York. In 2014, she made her international debut with her documentary STORMING PARADISE, which was broadcast by Al Jazeera Channel and screened at numerous international film festivals, including DOK Leipzig. 9 DAYS FROM MY WINDOW IN ALEPPO, which Van der Meulen co-directed, was selected for the International Film Festival Rotterdam and DOK Leipzig, won the Best Short Film award at the BFI Film Festival London, and took the Best European Short Film Award at the European Film Awards. Her medium-length drama IN EXILE was nominated for two ‘Dutch Oscars’ and won the award for Best Actress. Van der Meulen was then selected to the Roughcut Editing Station at the International Documentary Film Festival Amsterdam’s Summer School in 2018 with her feature-length documentary debut LAST MALE STANDING, which had its world premiere at CPH:DOX. She directed the NTR hit series SKAM NL in 2019. PINK MOON is her feature-length narrative film debut.

Wet Sand / Mokri pijesak

Gruzijsko selo na obali Crnoga mora u kojem žive ljubazni ljudi koji misle da se međusobno dobro poznaju. Jednoga dana, Elika pronalaze obješenog, a njegova unuka Moe dolazi kako bi organizovala sahranu. Moe se suočava sa mrežom laži i tragičnim posljedicama Elikove tajne ljubavne veze sa Amnonom koja je trajala dvadeset i dvije godine. Istina oslobađa Moe i omogućava joj da osjeti ljubav, te provocira seljane da zauzmu stav.

Elene Naveriani rođena je 1985. godine u Tbilisiju. Elena je 2003. upisala Državnu akademiju za umjetnost, gdje je studirala monumentalno slikarstvo. Tokom studija u Tbilisiju, sa drugim studentima Državne akademije osniva grupu LOTT. Elene je 2008. napustila Gruziju i stekla magistarsku diplomu u Školi za umjetnost i dizajn HEAD u Ženevi, a 2012. u istoj školi upisuje studij filma. Diplomirala je 2014. godine s kratkim filmom LES ÉVANGILES D’ANASYRMA. S još dvoje umjetnika 2016. godine osniva produkcijsku kompaniju mishkin, koja je producirala njen prvi dugometražni film ME MZIS SKIVI VAR DEDAMICAZE. Film je premijeru imao na festivalu u Rotterdamu, a potom je osvojio niz nagrada na različitim festivalima širom svijeta.

E A village on the Georgian Black Sea, where the people are friendly and believe they know each other. One day, Eliko is found hanged; his granddaughter Moe comes to organise his funeral. She is confronted with a web of lies and the tragic consequences of Eliko’s hidden love life with Amnon, which has gone on for twenty-two years. The truth, however, frees Moe’s capability to love – and provokes the villagers to take a stand.

Elene Naveriani was born in Tbilisi in 1985. In 2003, she entered Tbilisi’s State Academy of Art, where she studied monumental painting. During their studies, Naveriani and other students established the art group LOTT. In 2008, she left Georgia and obtained her master’s degree from Geneva’s School of Art and Design, then started studies in cinema in the same school in 2012. In 2014, she graduated with the short film GOSPEL OF ANASYRMA. In 2016, together with two other artists, Naveriani established the production company mishkin, which produced her first feature-length film, I AM TRULY A DROP OF SUN ON EARTH. The film had its premiere at the International Film Festival Rotterdam and won numerous prizes.

Kapa / Beanie

Devetogodišnji Erik je zbog problematičnih roditelja smješten u dječiji dom. Kapa je njegov nadimak, dok je njegova jedina želja vratiti se u obiteljski dom za Božić. Međutim, blagdan provodi s nepoznatom imućnom obitelji i njihovom sedmogodišnjom kćerkicom Lučkom koja za Božić želi sestricu i štenca. Usred Badnje noći, Erik i Lučka u dnevnom boravku misle da su susreli Djeda Božićnjaka, no to je ustvari maskirani lopov. Skrivaju se u njegov auto, ali Djed ih izbacuje usred grada. Tada za njih kreće nevjerovatna pustolovina.

Nakon preseljenja u veliki grad, Lauri strašno nedostaje njen stari dom. Usamljena je, ne sviđa joj se njen novi stan i teško pronalazi prijatelje. Kada jedne noći ugleda malenu zvijezdu kako pada s neba, Laura odluči otići po nju. Pokušava utješiti zvijezdu i pažljivo postupati s njenim načetim dijelom tako što postavlja flaster na njene “rane”. Početak je to magičnog prijateljstva između Laure i zvijezde.

E After moving to the big city, Laura misses her old home very much. She feels lonely, does not like the new apartment – and finding friends is not the easiest. When she watches a tiny star fall from the sky one night, Laura goes off to retrieve it. She comforts it and carefully treats its broken-off piece with a band-aid. A magical friendship between Laura and the star begins.

Bristle je mala djevojčica koju odgajaju zmajevi. Kada se njen otac nađe u situaciji da žabovještici Anuri mora dati svoju drugu najvažniju dragocjenost, on joj ponudi Bristle. Bristle zbog toga pada u očaj i bježi iz porodične pećine, a zatim kreće na put spoznaje kroz svijet ljudskih bića. Među ljudima, Bristle će spoznati vrijednost prijateljstva i solidarnosti, ali i upoznati pohlepu koja naizgled izjeda ljudska srca.

Jean-Jacques Denis se obrazovao u Školi vizuelnih umjetnosti Gobelins u Parizu. Na početku karijere, 2011. godine, radio je kao crtač storyborda na seriji WAKFU, a potom je režirao seriju DOFUS: KERUB’S BAZAAR. Svoj prvi dugometražni film DOFUS – LIVRE 1: JULITH korežirao je 2016. godine. Anthony Roux, poznat i kao Tot, osnivač je i kreativni direktor kompanije Ankama. Diplomirao je u Akademiji likovne umjetnosti u Tournaiu u Belgiji. Radio je kao autor, scenarista i reditelj na seriji WAKFU prije nego što se okušao sa igranim filmom i prebacio svoj kreativni svemir na veliko platno u filmu DOFUS – LIVRE 1: JULITH.

E Bristle is a little girl being raised by dragons. But when her father must give Anura, a froggy witch, his second most valuable possession, he offers up Bristle. This drives her to despair and forces her to flee the family cave. Bristle then embarks on a journey of discovery in the world of humans, among whom she will learn the meaning of friendship and solidarity – and greed, which seems to eat away at their hearts.

Jean-Jacques Denis was trained at the Gobelins School of Visual Arts in Paris. He began his career as a storyboarder for several animated series. He started working with Ankama in 2010, first as a storyboarder for the series WAKFU in 2011, then as director of the series DOFUS: KERUB’S BAZAAR. In 2016, he co-directed his first feature-length film, DOFUS – BOOK I: JULITH. Anthony Roux, also known as Tot, is Ankama’s founder and creative director. A graduate of the Académie des Beaux-Arts in Tournai, Belgium, he presided over the series WAKFU as author, scriptwriter, and director before adventuring into feature films and bringing his universe to the big screen in DOFUS – BOOK I: JULITH.

The Exploits of Moominpappa - Adventures of a Young Moomin / Podvizi tate Mumiavanture mladog Mumija

Mumija je ubola pčela i mora ostati u krevetu da se oporavi. Da bi ga oraspoložio, tata Mumi mu priča priče iz svoje uzbudljive mladosti. Prisjeća se kako je u djetinjstvu bio neshvaćen, kako je pobjegao od kuće i susreo izumitelja po imenu Hodgkins. Prisjeća se oluja koje je preživio dok je svirao u brodskom orkestru i svojih avantura u kraljevstvu autokrate Tate Jonesa. Priča i kako je uspostavio jednu koloniju, sprijateljio se sa jednim duhom, a jedne olujne noći spasio je mamu Mumi iz mora. Ostalo je historija.

Ira Carpelan je rediteljica, scenaristica, producentica i dizajnerica produkcije dva dugometražna filma o Mumijevim, veoma neobičnim likovima iz knjiga spisateljice i ilustratorice Tove Jansson “Zimska čarolija Mumijevih” (2017) i “Podvizi tate Mumi - avanture mladog Mumija”. Ona i njen suprug Tom Carpelan zajedno upravljaju produkcijskom kompanijom Filmkompaniet.

E As Moomintroll gets stung by a wasp and must lie in bed, Moominpappa wants to cheer him up by talking about his own adventurous youth. Pappa tells about his misunderstood childhood, how he escaped from an orphanage, and about his historic meeting with an inventor called Hodgkins. He reveals his struggles in heavy storms on the boat Ocean Orchestra, and all his adventures in the autocratic Daddy Jones’s kingdom. Pappa also establishes a colony, befriends a ghost and then – one stormy night – he rescues Moominmamma from the sea. And rest is history.

Ira Carpelan is the director, screenwriter, producer, and production designer of her two feature films about the Moomins, the highly unusual characters from the books by writer and illustrator Tove Jansson – MOOMINS AND THE WINTER WONDERLAND and THE EXPLOITS OF MOOMINPAPPA – ADVENTURES OF A YOUNG MOOMIN. She runs the production company Filmkompaniet with her husband Tom Carpelan.

Tvojazem / Put u Tvozemlje / Journey to Yourland

Desetogodišnji Riki bježi od kuće nakon što od blistavog kamena primi misteriozni poziv u pomoć. Taj čudni kamen, koji kao da razmišlja svojom glavom, vodi Rikija u fantastični paralelni svijet Tvozemlje u kojem prekrasne mašine krstare po zlatnim pustinjama, majmuni i vrane govore, a nauka živi u miru sa prirodom. Blistavi kamen moli Rikija da ga zaštiti i sakriva se u njegovom srcu. Čini se kao da svi u Tvozemlju žele pronaći blistavi kamen jer on onome ko ga posjeduje daje veliku moć. S kim Riki može podijeliti svoju tajnu? Možda sa svojom novom, drskom prijateljicom Emmom? Ili sa moćnim robotom Metalkom? Ili sa majmunom generalom Tidlingom? Ili ni s kim? Kome može vjerovati?

Peter Budinský je diplomirao na Odsjeku za filmsku animaciju Fakulteta za film i televiziju Akademije scenskih umjetnosti u Bratislavi. U sklopu programa Erasmus studirao je animaciju na Kraljevskom institutu za pozorište, film i zvuk RITS u Briselu, Belgija. Autor je više kratkih filmova i muzičkih videa, među kojima su ALFONZOVA MUCHA, BIRD OF PREY i TWINS ostvarili najviše uspjeha. Filmovi su prikazani i nagrađeni na filmskim festivalima širom svijeta. Budinský je 2013. godine u Bratislavi osnovao vlastitu produkcijsku kompaniju i animacijski studio – plutoon.

E Ten-year-old Riki runs away from home following a mysterious emergency signal sent by a shiny stone. The strange artefact seems to have a mind of its own, and it takes Riki to the breathtaking parallel world of Yourland, where wonderful machines roam golden deserts, monkeys and ravens talk, and science co-exists peacefully with nature. The shining stone merges with Riki by hiding in his heart and asking him for protection. It seems everybody in Yourland is eager to procure this treasure, as it is the core of Yourland’s power and owning it gives a great deal of influence. Who should Riki share his secret with? His new cheeky friend, Emma? Metal Man, the mighty robot? Tidling, a monkey general? Or nobody? Who can he trust?

Peter Budinský graduated from the animation film department of the Film and TV Faculty of the Academy of Performing Arts in Bratislava. He studied an Erasmus Program at Animation department of RITS in Brussels, Belgium. He created several short films and music videos, among which ALFONZ’S FLY, BIRD OF PREY and TWINS were the most successful. All of them were presented and awarded on the international festivals. In 2013, he founded his own production company and animation studio plutoon in Bratislava.

Vinski ja näkymättömyyspulveri / Vinski i prah za nevidljivost / Vinski and the Invisibility Powder

Priča o Vinskom i prahu za nevidljivost smještena je u Hömpstadu, izmišljenom gradu koji se guši u talasu zločina. Drski napadi i pljačke postali su sastavni dio života stanovnika grada, a policiji bi trebala pomoć superheroja da tome stanu u kraj. Desetogodišnji dječak Vinski upoznaje misterioznog apotekara koji mu daje bočicu magičnog praha. Prah onome ko ga koristi omogućava da postane nevidljiv i prolazi kroz zidove. Vinski na početku koristi svoje novostečene moći da zbija smicalice, ali uz podršku apotekara ubrzo počinje pomagati stanovnicima grada. Divno je imati specijalne moći, ali na Vinskijevu žalost, banda opakih kriminalaca ubrzo poželi otkriti tajnu nevidljivosti.

Juha Wuolijoki je finski reditelj, scenarista i producent. Diplomirao je na Univerzitetu za umjetnost i dizajn u Helsinkiju. Među njegovim uspješnim naslovima ističu se dugometražni porodični film

BOŽIĆNA PRIČA, biografski film HELLA W, te kriminalistička drama ZARRIN ZAKON. Generalni je direktor i osnivač produkcijske kompanije Snapper Films.

E The town of Hömpstad has been swept by a crime wave! Brazen crimes and robberies are now a reality for the people in the town and the police need a superhero to help them. Ten-year-old Vinski meets a mysterious pharmacist, who gives him a bottle of magical powder. The powder allows him to become invisible and walk through walls. At first, Vinski uses his new powers for practical jokes but, with the help of the pharmacist, he also begins helping the locals. It is fantastic to have superhero powers – but, to Vinski’s misfortune, a nasty band of crooks soon becomes interested in the secret of invisibility as well.

Juha Wuolijoki is a Finnish director, screenwriter, and producer. He graduated from the University of Arts and Design in Helsinki.

Der Pfad / Put / The Path

Francuska, 1940: progonjeni od nacista, njemački novinar i kritičar režima Ludwig i njegov dvanaestogodišnji sin Rolf ostaju zaglavljeni u Marseillesu. Cilj im je otići u New York gdje ih Rolfova majka već dugo čeka. Njihova zajednička igra pogađanja – “dobar ili loš, disident ili kolaborator?”

– ubrzo postaje smrtno ozbiljna jer sve češće se susreću sa policijskim inspektorima i nacističkim zvaničnicima u okupiranoj Evropi. Do slobode mogu stići samo tako što će preći opasan put koji preko Pirineja spaja južnu Francusku sa Španijom. Djevojčica Núria, koja je samo malo starija od Rolfa, ponudi se da im bude vodič na tom opasnom putu. Kada Ludwig biva zarobljen tokom puta, Rolf i Núria iznenada ostaju sami. Njihov jedini pratilac na putu koji ih uči da se, ako žele preživjeti, moraju držati zajedno i oslanjati jedno na drugo, je Rolfov pas Adi.

Tobias Wiemann, rođen 1983. u Greifswaldu, studirao je audiovizuelni medijski dizajn prije nego što je počeo raditi kao snimatelj, montažer i reditelj u Berlinu, gdje je i producirao nekoliko nagrađivanih kratkih filmova. Od 2008. radi u produkcijskoj kompaniji Tila Schweigera Barefoot Films. U istom periodu je napisao svoj prvi film, komediju GROSSSTADTKLEIN, koju je završio 2013. Njegov film AMELIE RENNT premijerno je prikazan u programu Generacija KPlus Međunarodnog filmskog festivala u Berlinu 2017. Film je potom osvojio brojne nagrade na festivalima širom svijeta, uključujući Goldener Spatz nagradu za najbolji scenarij i najbolji film, te Njemačku filmsku nagradu za najbolji dječiji film.

E France, 1940. Persecuted by the Nazis, the critical German journalist Ludwig and his twelveyear-old son Rolf are stranded in Marseille. Their goal is to travel to New York, where Rolf’s mother has been waiting for them for far too long. Their guessing game of “Good or Bad? – Dissident or Collaborator?” soon turns deadly serious when they increasingly have to face inspectors and officials in Nazi-controlled Europe. The only way to freedom is a steep path leading from southern France to Spain through the Pyrenees. Núria, a girl only slightly older than Rolf, offers to guide them along the hazardous path. When Ludig gets caught, Rolf and Núria are suddenly all on their own. Rolf’s dog Adi is then the only companion on a journey that teaches the two children to stick together and to rely on one another – if they want to survive.

Tobias Wiemann was born in Greifswald, Germany, in 1983. He studied Audiovisual Media Design before starting work as a cinematographer, editor, and director in Berlin, where he also produced several award-winning short films. Since 2008 he has worked at Til Schweiger’s production company, Barefoot Films. He wrote and directed the comedy GROSSSTADTKLEIN, his first feature-length film, released in 2013, and its follow-up, MOUNTAIN MIRACLE, which had its premiere at the Berlin International Film Festival in the Generation Kplus section in 2017. He has since won various awards at film festivals around the world, among them the Goldener Spatz for Best Screenplay and Best Film and the German Film Award for Best Children’s Film.

Četrnaestogodišnja Gaja, koja potiče iz razorene obitelji, suprotstavlja se ljubomornim školskim kolegama, doživljava krađu identiteta na društvenim mrežama, te otkriva šta znači pravo prijateljstvo. Tokom praznika Gajin otac odvodi nju i njenu sestru tinejdžerku u kamp kraj mora, ali odmor još nije počeo.

I Don’t Wanna Dance / Ne želim plesati

Nakon što su dvije godine živjeli s tetom, petnaestogodišnji Joey i njegov mlađi brat napokon se mogu vratiti majci Daphne. Zajednički život isprva teče glatko i sve se čini u redu: kuća je čista, hladnjak je pun, Daphne ima posao, a Joey postaje članom plesne grupe. Ljeto izgleda obećavajuće. No nad malom obitelji uskoro se ponovno nadvija mračan oblak Daphneinih starih navika. Joey daje sve od sebe kako bi radnike socijalne službe zadržao u neznanju. No koliko dugo može održati taj destruktivni ples s majkom nauštrb vlastite sreće?

Flynn von Kleist je rođen u Amsterdamu, a odrastao je u West Corku u Irskoj. Godine 2009. diplomirao je na Irskoj nacionalnoj filmskoj školi, nakon čega se preselio u Amsterdam, gdje je 2013. diplomirao režiju igranog filma na Nizozemskoj filmskoj akademiji. Njegov diplomski film LIQUID STEEL nagrađen je u Oberhausenu. Uz igrane filmove, Flynn je snimio seriju kratkih dokumentaraca FUTURITY, o djeci koja imaju posebnu vezu s muzikom.

E After having lived with their aunt for two years, fifteen-year-old Joey and his younger brother move back in with their mother to their great delight. At first everything goes well: the house is tidy, the fridge is full, Daphne has a job and Joey finds his place in a dance group. It promises to be a beautiful summer But the family joy soon comes under pressure when Daphne falls back into her old patterns. Joey does everything to keep child services away, but how long can he keep up this destructive dance with his mother, at the expense of his own happiness?

Flynn von Kleist was born in Amsterdam and grew up in West Cork, Ireland. In 2009, he graduated as a director from the National Film School of Ireland.

Paula

Paula ima samo četrnaest godina, a već mrzi vlastito tijelo. Kako bi izrazila ono što osjeća, Paula pokreće blog i postaje dio velike virtualne zajednice ljudi koji imaju isti problem poput nje. Pod plaštom anonimnosti, ona na internet postavlja videe koja snima svojim telefonom, a u kojima razotkriva prijatelje i porodicu. Osjećaj pripadnosti zasljepljuje Paulu koja, u potrazi za samopoštovanjem, skreće na put na kojem joj prijete bulimija i anoreksija.

Florencia Wehbe potiče iz Río Cuartoa. Studirala je u Gradskoj školi filma u Kordobi. Radila je kao asistentica režije na filmovima PRIMERO ENERO i MOCHILA DE PLOMO. Na potonjem filmu je radila i kao koscenaristica. MAÑANA TAL VEZ je prvi dugometražni film za kojeg potpisuje režiju. Film je snimljen 2019. godine i prikazan je na mnogim međunarodnim filmskim festivalima, te je osvojio brojne nagrade, uključujući nagradu za najbolji argentinski film Filmskog festivala La Plata Latinoamerica, nagradu za najbolji zvuk na Međunarodnom filmskom festivalu Guayaquil, te nagradu publike na Međunarodnom filmskom festivalu Santiago del Estero.

E At only fourteen years old, Paula hates her body In an attempt to express what she feels, she starts a blog and becomes part of a large virtual community that shares her problems. Sheltered by anonymity, she uploads content recorded with her cell phone, exposing her friends and family. The feeling of belonging blinds Paula, who begins to walk a lonely path in which bulimia and anorexia lurk as alternatives in the search for self-acceptance.

Florencia Wehbe is from Río Cuarto, Argentina, and studied at the Metro Cinema School in Córdoba. She worked as first assistant director on the feature films JANUARY and PACKING HEAVY, on which she was also a co-scriptwriter. Shot in 2019, MAÑANA TAL VEZ is her debut feature as a director. It has been selected for numerous international film festivals, and won the award for Best Argentinian Film at the La Plata Latinoamerican Film Festival, Best Sound at the Guayaquil International Film Festival, and the public award at the Santiago del Estero International Film Festival.

SVEMIR IZMEĐU NAS prati četrnaestogodišnjeg Kanađanina Tobija na ljetnom raspustu u Sloveniji koji provodi s majkom Kristinom, umjetnicom koja uskoro otvara značajnu izložbu u rodnom gradu. Tobi nije sretan što provodi raspust daleko od oca i prijatelja. Situacija se dodatno pogoršava kada ga članovi lokalne bande počnu maltretirati zbog boje njegove kože. Jedino što je u toj situaciji pozitivno je djevojčica po imenu Tjaša koja ga upoznaje sa umirovljenim, slijepim astronomom Hermanom. Dok čeka da im se njegov otac pridruži u Sloveniji, Tobi počinje provoditi vrijeme sa Hermanom koji ga upoznaje sa zakonima svemira koji se mogu primijeniti i na naš svakodnevni život na Zemlji.

Le Barrage / Brana / The Dam

Sudan, u blizini brane Merowe. Maher radi u tradicionalnoj ciglani koja koristi energiju rijeke Nil za proizvodnju struje. Svake večeri on u tajnosti odlazi u pustinju gdje od blata pravi neobičnu građevinu. Kada se narod Sudana pobuni zahtijevajući svoja prava, njegova građevina polako počinje živjeti vlastiti život.

Ali Cherri je vizuelni umjetnik i filmski autor rođen u Bejrutu, a s adresom stanovanja u Parizu. Njegovi radovi u kojima kombinuje film, video, skulpturu i instalacije, bave se procesom konstrukcije historijskih narativa.

E Sudan, near the Merowe Dam. Maher works in a traditional brickyard fed by the waters of the Nile. Every evening, he wanders off into the desert in secret to build a mysterious construction made of mud. While the Sudanese people rise to claim their freedom, Maher’s creation slowly starts to take a life of its own.

Ali Cherri is a visual artist and filmmaker born in Beirut and living in Paris. Combining film, video, sculpture and installation, his work examines the construction of historical narratives. Ali is the Artist in Residence at the National Gallery in London (2021/22) and received the Silver Lion Award for promising artist at the 59th International Art Exhibition of the Venice Biennale.

Četrdesetogodišnji Waleed živi u Haifi sa suprugom i djecom. Pati od hronične depresije i sanja da postane uspješan pisac. Sa zadnjim namjerama se zbližava sa svojim susjedom, inače sitnim prevarantom. Njegov lukavi plan završava neočekivanim prijateljstvom dva muškarca, ali ih i vodi na put pun opasnih susreta.

2021 – AND THEN THEY BURN THE SEA (kratki dokumentarni film / short doc.)

2017 – DOMESTIC ACOUSTICS (kratki film / short film)

A ONDA SPALE MORE elegična je kontemplacija o porodičnim uspomenama i gubitku. Autor filma Majid Al Remaihi promišlja iskustvo svjedočenja majčinom dugogodišnjem, postepenom, ali nepovratnom gubitku pamćenja. Služeći se porodičnim arhivom i uprizorenim snovima i ritualima, film naglašava sposobnost filmske umjetnosti da posluži kao medij za uspomene, čak i one koje su nepovratno izgubljene.

Majid Al Remaihi filmski je autor iz Dohe, Katar. Njegov kratki film A ONDA SPALE MORE premijerno je prikazan na Filmskom festivalu u Locarnu 2021. Film je producirao pod mentorstvom reditelja nominovanog za Oscara Rithy Panha, uz podršku Filmskog fonda Katara. Al Remaihi je i član selektorskog tima Doha Film Instituta.

E AND THEN THEY BURN THE SEA is an elegiac contemplation on familial memory and loss. Filmmaker Majid Al Remaihi ruminates on the experience of witnessing his mother’s gradual and terminal memory loss over the course of many years. Weaving together a personal family archive, reenacted dreams and rituals, the film underlines the promise of cinema as a medium of memories even at their most irretrievable.

Majid Al Remaihi is a filmmaker from Doha. His short film AND THEN THEY BURN THE SEA had its premiere at the Locarno Festival in 2021. The film was produced under the mentorship of Academy Award-nominated director Rithy Panh and with the support of the Qatari Film Fund. He is also part of the Film Programming team at the Doha Film Institute.

2021 – BORDER (kratki film / short film)

U mutnoj distopičnoj budućnosti, građanin Mohammed putuje do granice kako bi vidio članove svoje porodice. Uprkos njegovim naporima da poštuje pravila sistema, Mohammedovo putovanje se komplikuje. U svijetu u kojem niko nema lica, a svi su tek kodovi boje, razum se naizgled pretvara u predrasudu.

Khalifa Al-Thani katarski je filmski autor, kustos i vizuelni umjetnik. Diplomirao je film i video u Školi za vizuelne umjetnosti u New Yorku. U svome radu fokusira se na multidisciplinarno propitivanje Katara i pitanja identiteta. Član je Doha Film Instituta.

E In an abstrusely dystopian future, Mohammed, a citizen, travels to the border to see his family. Despite his efforts to follow the system, his journey becomes turbulent. In a world where we are all colour codes and faceless, judgement seems to turn into prejudice.

Khalifa Al-Thani is a Qatari filmmaker, curator and visual artist. He attained a BFA in film and video from the School of Visual Arts in New York City. His work focuses on the interdisciplinary exploration of Qatari and identity themes. He is currently a member of the Doha Film Institute.

DON’T GET TOO COMFORTABLE je introspektivno pismo koje je autorica

Shaima Al-Tamimi posvetila svome pokojnom dedi. U pismu propituje neprekidnu selidbu Jemenaca u dijaspori. U filmu kombinuje arhivske fotografije, izvorne videosnimke, parallax animaciju i apstraktne videouratke kako bi kreirala audiovizuelno djelo koje skreće pažnju na kolektivni osjećaj jemenskih (i drugih) migranata da su ljudi bez države.

Shaima Al-Tamimi je jemenska i istočnoafrička vizuelna umjetnica. U svome radu kroz introspekciju duboko ukorijenjenu u dokumentarizam propituje pitanja migracije, identiteta i kulinarske kulture. Već duži niz godina objavljuje fotografije na Instagram kanalu Everyday Middle East.

E Shaima Al-Tamimi shares an introspective letter to her deceased grandfather. The letter questions the continuous pattern of movement among Yemenis in the diaspora. The film fuses archival photographs, sourced footage, parallax animation, and abstract video to create an audiovisual body of work that calls attention to the collective feeling of statelessness being felt by Yemeni (and non-Yemeni) migrants.

Shaima Al-Tamimi is a Yemeni-East African visual storyteller. Her work explores themes such as migration, identity, and culinary culture through introspection and a deeply rooted documentary approach. She is a longterm contributor to Everyday Middle East.

Par inficiran koronavirusom snima se u izolatoriju za zaražene u Kataru, u apartmanu na dvadesetom spratu hotela s pet zvjezdica s pogledom na more i zavarenim prozorima. Iz te zlatne krletke posmatraju neprekidni tok vozila i ljudi ispod sebe. Razapeti između dvije različite stvarnosti, pretvaraju se da učestvuju u toku vremena u trenutku kada je sudbina čovječanstva dovedena u pitanje.

Suspended between realities, they pretend to participate in the passing of time as everyone’s fate hangs in the balance.

2021 – VIRTUAL VOICE (kratki film / short film)

2020 – AL-SIT (kratki film / short film)

Suzi je glas svoje generacije – virtuelni glas. Lutka Suzi je ego ratnica. Online avatar koji maršira prema diktatu algoritma društvenih mreža. Potpaljuju je privremeni izljevi bijesa. Trendovsko zgražavanje. Strast koja je u modi. Popularna politika. Njen aktivizam je apstraktan. Njena pomoć hipotetična. Znamo mnoge djevojke koje su poput Suzi, a često smo i sami poput nje: zlobni virtuelni glasovi, odjek nepravdi.

Suzannah Mirghani je književica, istraživačica i nezavisna filmska autorica. Završila je medijske studije i muzeologiju. Zbog vlastite miješanog, sudansko-ruskog porijekla, zainteresovana je za priče o kompleksnosti identiteta. Njen posljednji kratki film VIRTUELNI GLAS svjetsku premijeru je imao na Filmskom festivalu Tribeca.

E Suzi is the voice of her generation – the virtual voice, that is. Suzi doll is an ego-warrior. An online avatar, marching to the algorithms of social media. She is lit by temporary outrage. A trending indignation. A passion that is fashion. A politics of the popular. Her activism is abstract. Her help is hypothetical. We know many girls like Suzi, and many times we are her: vicious virtual voices, echoing injustices.

Suzannah Mirghani is a writer, researcher, and independent filmmaker. She is a media studies and museum studies graduate. With a Sudanese and Russian heritage, she is interested in stories about the complexity of identity. VIRTUAL VOICE, her most recent short film, had its world premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival.

Kada bi građevine mogle govoriti, šta bi ispričale? Ovaj poetični hibridni dokumentarac upoznaje nas sa tri veličanstvene, napuštene građevine koje su svjedočile turbulentnoj historiji Bejruta, a oživljene su kroz opušteni međusobni razgovor. Vraćamo se u zlatno doba Bejruta, kada je Piccadilly teatar bio mjesto zabave, trgovine u Eggu su ispunjavale gomile ljudi, a Bejt Bejrut je pod svojim krovom u art déco stilu krio domove nekolicine porodica i jedan legendarni frizerski salon.

Alessandra El Chanti je autorica dokumentarnih filmova, aktivistica i umjetnica iz Libana. Interesuju je priče o kulturi, društvenim temama i politici Levanta. El Chanti je magistrirala dokumentarni film i medije na Univerzitetu Northwestern.

E If these buildings could talk, what would they say? This poetic hybrid documentary introduces us to three majestic, abandoned buildings that witnessed Beirut’s tumultuous history and come to life through a casual conversation among themselves. We are going back to the Golden Era of Beirut, when the Piccadilly Theatre was filled with entertainment, the Egg was bustling with people in its local markets, and Beit Beirut housed an iconic hair salon and families living under its art-deco roof.

Alessandra El Chanti is a Lebanese documentary filmmaker, activist, and artist. Her interests lie in the stories of the Levant, ranging through its culture, social issues, and politics. El Chanti holds an MFA in documentary media from Northwestern University.

Frères / Braća / Brothers

Nekada davno, u jednom udaljenom kraljevstvu, živjela je jedna plava ptica obdarena brojnim moćima koje su osvjetljavale i štitile kraljevstvo i sve njegove stanovnike. U tom kraljevstvu je, sa svojom majkom, živjelo šest dječaka. Majka je naporno radila da prehrani svoje sinove koji su bili nemarni i neposlušni. Kada dječaci probude šumsku zvijer, ona razjareno baca kletvu na njihovo selo. Njihova majka iznenadno nestaje, a dječaci ostaju sami, da se poprave i isprave svoje greške. Dječaci kreću u potragu za plavom pticom u nadi da u kraljevstvu ponovo uspostave mir i spokoj i pronađu svoju mamu.

In this kingdom lived a mother and her six sons. She worked hard to raise her boys, but they were reckless and disobedient. One day, they wake up a forest beast and bring a curse upon their village. Their mother suddenly disappears and the boys are left all by themselves in their mountain home. They come to understand that they must redeem themselves and make amends, so they go in search of the blue bird in the hope that peace and serenity will be restored in the kingdom, and that they will find their missing mother.

Ovogodišnji BH Film Program donosi čak 54 filma sa osam regionalnih, jednom evropskom, devet međunarodnih i čak 24 svjetske premijere. Među naslovima su se našli filmovi producirani u Bosni i Hercegovini u proteklih 12 mjeseci, ali i filmovi bosanskohercegovačkih autora nastali u inostranstvu, te filmovi stranih autora koji se tiču Bosne i Hercegovine. Od 54 filma koje predstavljamo, 35 je bosanskohercegovačkih, 9 bosanskohercegovačkih koprodukcija i 10 stranih filmova, ali koji preko autora ili tema imaju direktnu vezu s Bosnom i Hercegovinom.

U najvažnijem dijelu programa, čija je selektorica Melina Alagić, bit će prikazano 11 studentskih filmova iz BiH koji će se, kao i svake godine, takmičiti za tri nagrade: Nagradu za najbolji bh. studentski film, Specijalna nagrada žirija i Specijalno priznanje žirija. Žiri koji će ove godine dodijeliti ove nagrade čine glumica Aida Bukva, dramaturg i scenarista Adnan Lugonić te reditelj Marko Šipka.

Među odabranim filmovima našli su se dugometražni igrani i dokumentarni filmovi, te kratki dokumentarni, igrani i animirani filmovi kojima će se predstaviti raznovrsnost formata, žanrova i tema kojima se autori bave.

E The 2022 edition of the BH Film Programme present fifty-four films, including eight regional, one European, nine international, and twentyfour world premieres. The line-up includes internationally produced films by auteurs from Bosnia and Herzegovina, but also films by international directors that take the nation as their subject.

Among the titles, there are thirty-five Bosnian productions, nine co-productions with Bosnia and Herzegovina, and ten international productions directly tied to our country either by their auteurs or by their thematic focus.

In the most important section of the programme, curated by Melina Alagić, eleven films by students from Bosnia and Herzegovina vie for three awards: the Award for Best Student Film, the Special Jury Prize, and a Special Jury Mention. The awards will be assigned by the jury, whose members are actor Aida Bukva, scriptwriter and dramaturge Adnan Lugonić, and director Marko Šipka.

The selection, which includes long-form fiction and documentary films, as well as documentary, fiction, and animated short works, is representative of a variety of film formats, genres, and themes embraced by the filmmakers from Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Njena nada da će dobiti skrbništvo nad kćerkom je svakim danom sve manja, jer nema priliku da nađe stalni posao.

Dok neumorno radi u hostelu, Sofijini dani pod budnim okom njene trudne šefice Lene postaju dugi i teški. Sofija prima neočekivani telefonski poziv na poslu. Mora isprazniti stvari svog oca iz njegovog ureda do kraja sedmice. S dečkom je već u fazi selidbe. U ovom trenutku Sofija je prisiljena da se počne suočavati sa svojom prošlošću. As an image slowly takes shape in a chemical bath under the red light of a darkroom, the memories of Sofija slowly reveal themselves on the landscape of modern-day Sarajevo over the course of 4 days. Working tirelessly at a hostel, Sofija’s days are long and hard under the watchful eyes of her pregnant boss Lena. Sofija receives an unexpected phone call at work. She must empty her estranged father’s belongings from his office by the end of the week. She is already in the process of moving apartments with her boyfriend. At this moment, Sofija is forced to begin facing her past.

Poslije pada Srebrenice, gdje je izgubio oca i dva brata, Dino se kao izbjeglica nastanio u Zagrebu. Dino radi kao ulični čistač i stanuje kao podstanar kod gospođe Šlik, Gogoove bake. Dinino radno mjesto je Mali trg na Gornjem gradu gdje se nalazi i telefonska govornica s koje često zove jedinog prijatelja Fahru koji se u Sarajevu bavi sitnim kriminalom. Fahru je zadesila slična sudbina kao Dinu - u srebreničkom genocidu izgubio je brata. Dinin život promijenit će dolazak Dore, njegove nove sustanarke. Dora je studentica koja, kako kaže, radi „noćnu smjenu“ u luksuznom zagrebačkom hotelu, da bi prehranila svoju majku i sestru u Vukovaru. Oboje će uskoro saznati da dijele istu bolnu sudbinu… Je li ljubav između dvoje toliko različitih, ali ipak sličnih ljudi, uopće moguća ili je tek samo okidač kako bi krenuli sami u potragu za svojim vlastitim identitetima?

After the fall of his hometown Srebrenica, where he lost his father and brothers, Dino settled in Zagreb as a refugee. He works as a street cleaner, and his workplace is the Small square in Uptown Zagreb with a telephone booth, which he often uses to call his only friend Fahro living in Sarajevo. Dino’s life will change with the arrival of Dora, his new flatmate. Dora doesn’t speak too much. She only asks questions. They both soon find out that they share the same painful fate. Is the love between two people who are so similar and yet so different even possible – or did their encounter only serve to make them start searching for their identity? Their search for their identities will include real massacre footage, a gun-fight in a hotel, a police investigator in search of Al Qaeda cells in Croatia, and, after all, the question of crime and punishment.

37. godina prije naše ere. Mladog Liburna Volsusa sa sobom povede rimska jedinica čiji se naoko jednostavan zadatak skupljanja poreza pretvori u napet i iznenadnim obratima prepleten susret s lokalnim, naizgled pokorenim ilirskim plemenima. Očima ovog, za Rimljane primitivnog barbara, pratimo arhaičan, emotivan svijet začudnih, brutalnih zakona i običaja, koji su sličniji našem suvremenom svijetu nego što bismo to očekivali u prvi mah.

The year is 37 BC. A young Liburnian Volsus is taken by a Roman unit to help in what at first seems a simple task of collecting taxes, but the encounters with local Illyrian tribes soon lead to unexpected turns of events, as they show more resilience to subjugation than meets the eye. We see their archaic, emotional world of quaint and brutal laws and traditions through the eyes of this youngster, regarded by the Romans as a primitive barbarian, and gradually come to understand that their world is not all that different from our own.

Zlatko Slatinac je davno počeo svoju muzičku karijeru i to u kultnoj sarajevskoj grupi „Bombarder“ davne 1986. godine. Danas, i nakon mnogo svirki i tetovaža, ta ljubav i strast za muziku se nastavlja. Zajedno sa sinom Sergijom, u malom rock bendu iz Sarajeva „Foxy Head“, otac i sin zajedno rade, komponuju, sviraju, kruže regionom svirajući po klubovima i motorijadama. Pratimo njihovu muzičku svakodnevnicu - dok sviraju i snimaju prvi album u svom kućnom studiju.

Zlatko Slatinac started his musical career a long time ago in the iconic Sarajevo group Bombarder, back in 1986. Today, many gigs and tattoos later, that love and passion for music continues. Together with his son Sergio, in a small rock band from Sarajevo “Foxy Head”, father and son work together, compose, play, tour the region playing in clubs and motorcades. We follow their daily musical life - while they play and record their first album in their home studio.

Trideset godina nakon Balkanskog rata i opsade Sarajeva – jedne od najdužih u savremenoj istoriji – tri generacije pričaju jedna drugoj svoje priče. Upoznajemo Bobu, ratnu prevoditeljicu; Zorana, koji je tada imao samo 13 godina; Belminu, koja za vrijeme rata nije bila još rođena. Suočavanje sa sjećanjem i traumom pokušaj je prevazilaženja. Sarajevski hotel „Holiday Inn“, “dom” brojnih stranih dopisnika i TV ekipa, sluša i prikuplja ove priče. HOTEL SARAJEVO i njegovi protagonisti ponavljaju neke od događaja iz sukoba u bivšoj Jugoslaviji kako bi ispričali rane rata koji se odigrao u srcu Evrope.

Thirty years after the Balkan war and the siege of Sarajevo - one of the longest ones in contemporary history - three generations tell each other their own stories. We meet Boba, a war fixer; Zoran, who was only thirteen at the time; Belmina, who was not even born. It is a confrontation in memory and trauma, to try to overcome it. The Holiday Inn hotel in Sarajevo, the “home” of many foreign correspondents and TV crews, listens to and gathers these stories. HOTEL SARAJEVO and its protagonists, retraces some of the events of the conflict in former Yugoslavia to recount the wounds of a war that took place in the heart of Europe.

Poslije raspada socijalističke Jugoslavije nove političke elite su na prostoru Bosne i Hercegovine uspostavile revizionistički pogled na period Drugog svjetskog zbog čega su brojni spomenici NOB-a zapušteni i zaboravljeni. Planski, u kulturi sjećanja, taj period se postepeno prepušta zaboravu kako bi se mogle uspostaviti neke nove vrijednosti. Film u fokus stavlja zanemarenu istoriju partizanske borbe na prostoru Bosne i Hercegovine s naglaskom na spomeničku arhitekturu i rijetka svjedočanstva živih učesnika NOB-a, koji su sada i posljednji svjedoci toga vremena.

After the disintegration of socialist Yugoslavia, the new political elites in Bosnia and Herzegovina established a revisionist view of the Second World War, which is why many monuments dedicated to the National Liberation War were neglected and forgotten. This period is deliberately and gradually being forgotten so that some new values can be established. The film focuses on the neglected history of the partisan struggle in Bosnia and Herzegovina, with an emphasis on monumental architecture and the rare testimonies of living participants in the National Liberation War, who are now the last witnesses of that time.

SLIKE IZ ŽIVOTA BOSANSKOHERCEGOVAČKOG FILMA / SCENES FROM THE LIFE OF BIH FILM

SLIKE IZ ŽIVOTA BOSANSKOHERCEGOVAČKOG FILMA je, prije svega, podsjećanje na autore koji više nisu među nama, na njihova djela i filmove koji su ostavili neizbrisivi trag na razvoj bosanskohercegovačkog filma. Za novu generaciju ljubitelja filma, nasljednike bogate tradicije generacija prije njih, bilo bi neoprostivo da ne znaju ništa ili gotovo ništa o tome kako je nastala jedna od najuspješnijih filmskih industrija u ovom dijelu svijeta. Osim režisera, u ovom filmu učestvuju i drugi važni autori i saradnici: scenaristi, snimatelji, glumci, kompozitori i ostali.

Purpose of the documentary film SCENES FROM THE LIFE OF BIH FILM is, above all, to revisit the memory of authors who are no longer with us and their work, films that left a prominent and indelible mark on the development of BiH film. It would be unforgivable for the current young generation of film lovers, heirs to a rich tradition of generations before them, to know nothing or almost nothing about how one of the most successful film industries in this part of the world was built. In addition to directors, the documentary would include other important authors and collaborators: script writers, cinematographers, actors, composers etc.

Pola vijeka istorije ove sarajevske institucije ispričane iz ugla Seje Sexona, lidera grupe “Zabranjeno pušenje”.

Film SVJETLA SARAJEVA vodi nas u hladne zimske noći, kroz jedinstvene mitove i legende vezane za samu dvoranu, još iz socijalističkog perioda.

CLOSE THE DOOR is a portrait of a quirky elderly couple in Bosnia more than twenty years after the war. We follow their every-day routine and

slowly peel away layers of their story: the shelling of their house, the loss of their daughter, and the reminiscing about their own mortality.

Dokumentarac govori o porodici Šabanović, koja je prije 30 godina izbjegla iz Bosne i Hercegovine u Švicarsku. Pratimo porodicu do mjesta njihovih sjećanja u Bosni kao i do mjesta njihovog života u Zugu i ispitujemo ih o kulturnom identitetu i pripadnosti. Zajednička nit kroz film je jedina uspomena porodice Šabanović iz vremena prije rata - kombinezon njihovog najstarijeg sina Alena. U saradnji s Muzejom ratnog djetinjstva Sarajevo, kombinezon je izložen u muzeju i simbolizira djecu širom svijeta koja zbog političkih nemira i rata ne mogu odrastati u domovini svojih roditelja. The documentary brings the story of the Šabanović family, who fled from Bosnia and Herzegovina to Switzerland 30 years ago. We accompany the family to their places of remembrance in Bosnia as well as to their places of activity in Zug and question them about cultural identity and belonging. The common thread throughout the film is the Šabanović family’s only memento from before the war - the romper suit of their eldest son Alen. In cooperation with the War Childhood Museum Sarajevo, the romper suit is on display at the museum and symbolizes children worldwide who cannot grow up in their parents’ country because of political unrest and war.

CollegiumArtisticum osnovan je tri godine prije Drugog svjetskog rata, a činili su ga intelektualci koji su se u Sarajevo vraćali iz evropskih kulturnih prijestolnica toga vremena, voljni da pokažu i podijele stečena znanja i vještine, te su priređivali različita kulturna dešavanja od 1939. do 1941. godine. U radu koji je imao progresivne elemente svih velikih kulturnih pokreta u Evropi prve polovine 20. stoljeća, nije zapostavljena ni ovdašnja tradicija s jasno utkanom porukom važnosti zajedništva.

CollegiumArtisticum was founded three years before the Second World War, made by intellectuals who returned to Sarajevo from the European cultural capitals of that time, willing to show and share their acquired knowledge and skills, and organized various cultural events from 1939 to 1941. In a work that had progressive elements of all the great cultural movements in Europe of the first half of the 20th century, the local tradition was not neglected either, with a clearly woven message of the importance of togetherness.

1. marta 1992. godine, od 64% građana Bosne i Hercegovine koji su se odazvali referendumu o nezavisnosti Bosne i Hercegovine, 99,44% glasalo

je „za“. Referendumsko pitanje je glasilo: “Jeste li za suverenu i nezavisnu Bosnu i Hercegovinu, državu ravnopravnih građana, naroda BiH - Muslimana, Srba, Hrvata i pripadnika drugih naroda koji u njoj žive?“. Bilo je to vrijeme intenzivnih, ali uglavnom neuspješnih razgovora šest predsjednika predsjedništava jugoslovenskih republika o traženju izlaza iz jugoslovenske krize. Bilo je to vrijeme kad su se ratna dešavanja iz Hrvatske već prelila u Bosnu i Hercegovinu septembra 1991. To je bio tek početak rata.

March 1, 1992. of the 64 percent of citizens of Bosnia and Herzegovina who responded to the referendum on the independence of Bosnia and Herzegovina, 99.44 percent voted “yes”. The referendum question read: “Are you in favor of a sovereign and independent Bosnia and Herzegovina, a state of equal citizens, of the people of Bosnia and Herzegovina - Muslims, Serbs, Croats and members of other nations living in it?”. It was a time of intensive but mostly unsuccessful talks between the six presidents of the presidencies of the Yugoslav republics about finding a way out of the Yugoslav crisis. It was a time when war events from Croatia had already spilled over into Bosnia and Herzegovina in September 1991. That was just the beginning og the war.

Novi Šeher, mali bosanski grad, dom je porodice Lepić. Na početku rata u Bosni, Hrvati i Bošnjaci borili su se zajedno protiv Srba. Hrvati su izdali Bošnjake i etnički očistili grad. Otac Asim i ujak Nero odvedeni su na Heliodrom, dok je majka Suvada s dvije male kćerke odvedena u ženski

logor Žepče. Nisu ništa znali jedni o drugima duže od šest mjeseci. Njihove životne priče ispričane su prvi put u ovom filmu. Nikada ranije nisu govorili o tome, niti će ikada više.

They didn’t know anything about each other for more than 6 months. This film tells their life stories, and they are told for the first time ever. They have never spoken about it, nor will they, ever again.

Dok boravi u maloj kući u Readingu, Maja Bilić se slaže da je došlo vrijeme za komponovanje muzičkog djela koje je moglo definisati njenu karijeru kakva bi bila da nije bilo rata u BiH. Kako bi konačno završila svoje muzičko djelo mora se vratiti kući, gdje još uvijek stoji njen stari klavir, netaknut od 1992. godine. THE SCORE je intervencija, suradnja i poniranje redateljice i njene majke.

In a little house in Reading, Maja Bilić agrees it is time to compose a piece of music that could have defined her career - had it not been for the Bosnian war. To finish the piece she must return home, where her old piano still stands, untouched since 1992, to finally perform her piece of music.

THE SCORE is an intervention, a collaboration and an immersion between the director and her mother.

Unosi u dnevniku prikupljeni tokom četiri godine dokumentiraju proces kroz koji osoba prolazi dok istražuje i upoznaje se sa svojim temeljnim postojanjem, što rezultira pronalaženjem unutarnjeg mira. Autoportret, koji je zrcalo za svakoga ko se u njemu ogleda, služi kao beskrajno polje za svakoga ko trči u njemu.

Diary inquiries collected over four years documenting the process a person goes through while exploring and getting familiar with their core existence, resulting in finding inner peace. An auto portrait serving as a mirror for anyone to reflect on it, serving as an endless field for anyone to run in it.
