Vreme nedostajanja Branka Pavlović i Rajko Petrović - selektori

Kada se u budućnosti bude govorilo o ovoj dvehiljade dvadesetoj godini po čemu će(mo) je pamtiti? Po praznim ulicama, svetu bez ljudi, naglo prekinutim planovima, po strašnoj izvesnosti da više ništa neće biti isto? Po brojevima koji se množe i dele i definišu stvarnost i svaki sledeći korak? Da li će ova „nova normalnost“ u kojoj smo se našli iznenada i bez svoje volje, postati trajno stanje limba iz koga se ne nazire izlaz? Ili će u nekoj tački u budućnosti to biti samo dubok ožiljak u tkivu sećanja? Kada se u toj zamišljenoj budućnosti budu pravili filmovi o ovom vremenu - kakvi će oni biti? O čemu? Hoće li biti festivala na kojima će biti prikazani, ili će tada već svako praviti neki svoj film, samo za sebe, u sebi i o sebi? Da li već sad filmovi koje ćete videti na Slobodnoj zoni pripadaju nekoj davnoj prošlosti i dolaze iz nekog drugog vremena i sveta koji su preko noći prestali da postoje? Ili nam nešto govore iz te prošlosti što smo propustili da čujemo? Jer svi filmovi koji su se našli u ovogodišnjoj selekciji govore o želji za komunikacijom, o traumi razdvajanja i katarzi koju donosi bliskost. Katarzi koju donosi pripadnost zajednici, prihvatanje, dodir, oslobađanje od straha. Ovi filmovi vode nas „sa druge strane“ - Epicentro Huberta Saupera upoznajemo Kubu danas, naizgled

zaustavljenu u vremenu i odvojenu od sveta, u kojoj se na ulicama Havane prepliću utopija i stvarnost, filmska magija i savremena post-istina. Kroz fragmente razgovora i zvukova, arhivskih materijala i filmskih klasika film se bavi istorijom iz perspektive pojedinca. Istorijom koju, hiljade kilometara udaljeni, u ovom novom vremenu osećamo više nego ikad na svojoj koži. U dokumentarnom filmu Dobro došli u Čečeniju grupa aktivistkinja i aktivista pokušava da spasi i pruži šansu pripadnicima LGBTQ+ da započnu novi život van granica te zemlje. Lica glavnih protagonist(kinj)a koji su pristali da učestvuju u filmu zbog zaštite identiteta zamenjena su licima drugih ljudi. Zahvaljujući solidarnosti i (deepfake!) tehnologiji baziranoj na veštačkoj inteligenciji postalo je moguće - kao u nekom distopijskom romanu - da dobrovoljci daju svoj lik i deo svog identiteta kako bi progonjeni dobili mogućnost da ispričaju svoju priču. Paradoksalno, tehnologija oko koje se lome koplja zbog povrede privatnosti i mogućnosti zloupotrebe, u ovom uzbudljivom dokumentarcu i bukvalno spasava živote. Nikad, retko, ponekad, uvek su mogući odgovori na veoma intimna pitanja koja socijalna radnica upućuje sedamnaestogodišnjoj Otum, o njenoj porodici, seksualnom zdravlju, navikama i osećanjima, u savetovalištu za prekid trudnoće. Zajedno sa rođakom i

najboljom prijateljicom Skajlar, ona je zbog strogih zakona prevalila stotine kilometara kako bi u Njujorku potražila pomoć. Brutalno iskrena prema društvu i sistemu, i beskrajno nežna prema svojim junakinjama, rediteljka Eliza Hitman nas poziva da im priđemo sasvim blizu sve dok ne osetimo da su istinsko prijateljstvo, ljudski dodir i podrška ono što nam treba da bismo (pre)živeli. Razlog zbog kog skačem je... vodi nas u svet dece i mladih sa autizmom i njihovih porodica. Nastao po motivima istoimene knjige trinaestogodišnjeg autističnog dečaka Naokija Higašide, dopušta nam da se na trenutak približimo onome što vide i osećaju oni koji su onemogućeni da komuniciraju a preplavljeni su čulnim senzacijama i emocijama koje ne mogu da podele. Reditelj Džeri Rotvel uspeva da zahvaljujući svojim mladim junakinjama i junacima pronađe audiovizuelni izraz za bol i lepotu postojanja, i radost i katarzu komunikacije. I dokumentarni film Betine Buler o nemačkom reditelju i angažovanom umetniku Kristofu Šlingenzifu je neprekidna lavina utisaka. On je poput njenog glavnog junaka: opsesivan, nepredvidljiv i nezaustavljiv - do poslednjeg trenutka politički angažovan u svojim delima i stavu, beskompromisan i beskrajno duhovit. Nesuđeni student filmske akademije u Minhenu, Kristof Šlingenzif, autsajder i enfant terrible, oživljava

zahvaljujući rediteljki i montažerki Betini Buler na desetogodišnjicu svoje prerane smrti. Kroz arhivske materijale, filmove iz detinjstva, inserte iz pozorišnih predstava, opera, instalacija, underground filmova. Njegova dela koja govore o tranziciji na račun Istočne Nemačke, jačanju desnice i polovičnom suočavanju sa prošlošću i dalje su aktuelna, kao da nam se obraća iz budućnosti. Pojavljuje se da ga tek upoznamo i da odmah počne da nam nedostaje. Da shvatimo da nam treba, baš takav neki čovek, prijatelj, pripovedač i umetnik sa vizijom, da vrisne u ime svih nas u ćutanje koje nas okružuje i izleči nas od straha. Ovo je vreme nedostajanja. Zato dođite lično, dođite digitalno, uzmite i podelite sve ono po čemu ćete pamtiti ovu 2020. godinu. Možda će jednoga dana to biti film. Ponesite u bioskop ili pred kompjuter vaše čežnje i samoće, propuštene dodire i prilike, strahove i nade. Povedite nove ljubavi iz doba korone, ponesite u mislima sve ono što nikada ne biste priznali. Setite se šta vam sve nedostaje i za šta biste se borili. Budite sa nama i ako niste tu. Dobro došli u Slobodnu zonu.

The Time of Longing Branka Pavlović, Rajko Petrović - Selectors

One day, in the future, we’ll be talking about year 2020, but how will we remember it, what memories will it evoke? Will those be the ones of empty streets, a world without people, our abruptly interrupted plans or the terrifying certainty that nothing will be the same any more? Will it remind us of the numbers that are multiplied and divided, which define reality and every next step? Will this ‘new normal’ in which we have found ourselves, suddenly and without our will, become a permanent state of limbo from which there is no way out? Or will it just, at some point, become a deep scar in the tissue of our memory? The films which will have been made, in that imagined future — what will they be like? What stories will they be telling? Will there be festivals where they will be shown, or will every person be making their own film, only for oneself, in oneself and about oneself? Do the movies in this year’s Free Zone already belong to some ancient past, to the world and era that ceased to exist overnight? Or might they be telling us something from that past that we didn’t quite catch and failed to recognize? Because all the films in this year’s selection speak of the desire for communication, the trauma of separation, and the catharsis that intimacy brings. The catharsis brought by belonging to the community, by acceptance, touch and liberation from fear. These films take us ‘to the other side’: in Hubert Sauper’s Epicentro, we meet Cuba today, seemingly frozen in time

and cut off from the world, where utopia and reality, film magic and modern post-truth, intertwine on the streets of Havana. Through fragments of conversation and sounds, archival materials, and film classics, the film deals with history from the perspective of the individual. The history which we can feel better than ever in this new time, thousands of kilometers away. In the documentary Welcome to Chechnya, a group of activists tries to save and give LGBTQ + members a chance to start a new life outside the country's borders. Faces of the main male and female protagonists, who agreed to participate in the film, have been replaced by the faces of other people for the sake of identity protection. Thanks to solidarity and (deepfake!) technology based on artificial intelligence, it has become possible — as in a dystopian novel — for volunteers to borrow their faces and part of their identity so that the victimized get the opportunity to tell their story. Paradoxically, this technology which is the matter of great dispute in public due to the violation of privacy and the possibility of abuse, in this exciting documentary, is saving lives. Never, Rarely, Sometimes, Always, gives possible answers to the very intimate questions that a social worker asks seventeen-year-old Autumn about her family, sexual health, habits, and feelings at the abortion counseling center. Together with her cousin and best

friend Skylar, she travelled hundreds of miles due to strict laws to seek help in New York. Brutally honest with the society and the system, and infinitely gentle with her heroines, director Eliza Hittman invites us to get very close to them until we feel that true friendship, human touch and support are what we need to survive. The Reason I Jump leads us into the world of children and youth with autism and their families. Based on the book of the same title by a thirteen-year-old autistic boy Naoki Higashida, it allows us for a moment to see and feel the things of those who are unable to communicate but are at the same time overwhelmed by sensory sensations and emotions they cannot share. Thanks to his young heroes and heroines, director Jerry Rothwell manages to find an audiovisual expression for the pain and beauty of existence, and the joy and catharsis of communication. And Bettina Böhler’s documentary about a German director and engaged artist Christoph Schlingensief, is a relentless avalanche of impressions. The film is just like its epynomous protagonist: obsessive, unpredictable, and unstoppable; until the last moment, politically engaged in his actions and attitude, uncompromising and infinitely witty. Christoph Schlingensief, a student of the Munich Film Academy, an outsider and enfant terrible, comes to life thanks to the director and editor Bettina Böhler

on the tenth anniversary of his untimely death, through archival materials, childhood films, scenes from theater performances, operas, installations, underground films. His works, which speak of the transition at the expense of East Germany, the strengthening of the right-wing, and the partial confrontation with the past, are still equally relevant as if he were addressing us from the future. It appears as we have just met him in order to immediately start missing him; in order to realize that he is exactly the sort of man we need: a friend, a narrator, and an artist with a vision, a man ready to scream to break the silence in the name of all of us, and to cure us from fear. This is the time of longing. So feel welcome to come in person, or come digitally, take and share your memories of this year. One day they might be turned into a movie. Bring to the cinema or in front of the computer screen your longings and your loneliness, missed chances and the touches you have longed for, your fears and hopes. Bring new loves from the age of corona, your thoughts of all the things you would never admit. Remember what you miss and what you would fight for. Be with us even if you are not. Welcome to the Free Zone.

Gde je kuća naših prijatelja? Ivan Bakrač

O čemu misliti i koje probleme istaći u godini kao što je ova? Da li će se filmovi završiti i da li ćemo ih uopšte gledati u novembru 2020? Bila su to samo neka od pitanja koja sam sebi postavljao tokom procesa selekcije. U ovim, za čitavu civilizaciju neizvesnim vremenima, morali smo se zapitati kako će uopšte izgledati budućnost filma. Ali, kao i u svim drugim teškim vremenima, pojedini filmovi su se snimali, mnogi od njih su i završeni, a većina festivala je našla način da ne izneveri svoju publiku. Balkan je, kao i obično, opstao i iznedrio važne naslove koji su prikazani na festivalima širom sveta. Uprkos raznolikosti i slojevitosti tema u ostvarenjima koje sam odlučio da sa vama podelim, shvatio sam da se u radu regionalnih autora često prepoznaje jedan zajednički motiv, koji me je podsetio na čuveni film Abasa Kjarostamija, i tako sam postavio sebi još jedan niz pitanja - Gde je kuća naših prijatelja? Gde oni stvarno pripadaju? Kuda idu, gde je njihov dom? Uzidani, jedini kratki film u selekciji, domaćeg autora Igora Simića, politička je satira u kojoj manipulativni premijer privatizuje i zloupotrebljava nacionalno blago da bi spasao zemlju od krize. Da li je takva zemlja dom? U filmu Akasa, moj dom, romska porodica živela je 20 godina u divljini delte Bukurešta dok gradske vlasti nisu odlučile da se pobrinu za njih i obezbede im "pravi dom"

i socijalni život. Ali da li je to zaista konačno dom za njih ili su upravo ostali bez njega? U nešto drugačijoj grčkoj divljini, u filmu Kopač, meštani su zbog ekonomske krize u iskušenju da se odreknu života u prirodi tako što će prodati imovinu i preseliti se u grad. Da li ih grad može podjednako usrećiti? U malom rumunskom mestu, Karturan sam izdržava svog maloletnog unuka za kog mora da nađe novi dom, dok se istovremeno trudi da ovaj svet napusti na jedini način koji je njemu prihvatljiv. Da li će naći mir za svoju dušu? A duša mladog fotografa Marka lebdi kroz film O jednoj mladosti, hrvatskog reditelja Ivana Ramljaka, pobednika Slobodne zone 2016, koji nam pruža dirljiv i intiman portret bliskog prijatelja koji nas je prerano napustio. Prijatelji se sa nostalgijom sećaju zajedničke prošlosti, pa ne možemo da se ne zapitamo da li su mogli učiniti nešto za Marka, koje su naše moći kada bliski ljudi prestanu da osećaju pripadnost? U filmu Jedna od nas, grupa prijatelja se okupila da proslavi godišnjicu mature i pitaju se da li su mogli pomoći svojoj prijateljici M. Još od kad je bila devojčica, M. je konstantno zlostavljana od strane svog oca, a jedini način da se, sasvim sama, izbori sa svojom agonijom bio je da se odseli na drugi kontinent. Da li je u novom domu konačno našla mir i sigurnost? Horizonti Balkana ovaj put dosežu i do Amerike, gde jedna porodica grčkih iseljenika prolazi dug put samopronalaženja, u filmu Nedelje. Naizgled savršen otac odlučuje da napusti

poziv sveštenika grčke pravoslavne crkve i razvede se od svoje supruge. Šta ga je podstaklo da se na trenutak vrati u rodnu Grčku i preispita istinitost čitavog svog života? Domaća autorka Tamara Drakulić nas sa svojim novim filmom U slavu ljubavi takođe odvodi na drugi kontinent. Ona slavi ljubav kroz lokalne, ali ipak univerzalne mitove i anegdote jednog umirućeg sela. U meksičkoj pustinji, ona pronalazi nove prijatelje i sa njima stvara film koji otvara pitanje - zašto, čak i kada se čini da tu nema ničeg više za njih, ljudi odlučuju da ostanu u svojim domovima? Iako je 2020. godina neizvesnosti, godina postavljanja bezbroj pitanja, naši balkanski autori nam u svojim filmovima ipak daju nadu, i poneki odgovor, pa vas pozivam da nam se pridružite, u slavu ljubavi. Jer dokle god imamo nekog ko će za nas pitati "gde je kuća mog prijatelja", mi imamo dom.

Where is our Friends' House? Ivan BakraÄ?

What to dwell on and which issues to emphasize in a year like this one? Will films come close to their completion and will we be able to see them at all, in November 2020? These were just some of the questions I asked myself throughout the selection process. In these, for the whole civilization, times of uncertainty, we had to ask ourselves about the future of the film and what it would look like. However, just like during other difficult times, some films are being shot, a lot of them have been completed, and most film festivals have found a way to meet the audiences' expectations. The Balkans, as usual, have managed to endure and continue to offer important titles that have been screened on festivals across the world. Even though themes of the films I decided to share with you are diverse and have many layers of meaning, I realized that there is often a single motive mutual to the works of authors in our region, the one which reminded me of a well-known movie by Abbas Kiarostami, and thus I was encouraged to ask myself some more questions â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Where is our friends' house? Where do they truly belong? Where do they go, where is their home? Miracle Milk, the only short film in this selection, by a Serbian director Igor SimiÄ&#x2021;, is a political satire in which a manipulative prime minister privatizes and misuses national resources in order to save his country from a

crisis. Can this kind of country be called a home? In the film Acasa, My Home, a Gypsy family had been living in the wilderness of the Bucharest delta for 20 years, until the local government decided to take care of them and provide them a “real home” and social life. But, is that ultimately a home for them, or have they just been cast out of it? In a somewhat different Greek wilderness, in the film Digger, due to the economic crisis, the locals are tempted to give up life in nature by selling their properties and moving to a city. Can the city make them equally happy? In a small place in Romania, Carturan is all by himself financially supporting his underage grandson for whom he needs to find a new home, while at the same time striving to depart this life in an only way acceptable to him. Will he find peace for his soul? Speaking of soul, the soul of a young photographer Mark is very much present in the film Once Upon a Youth by a Croatian director Ivan Ramljak, the winner of the Free Zone award in 2016. The film offers us a touching and intimate portrayal of a close friend who died too early. Friends reminisce about years spent together with him with nostalgia, so that we can't help but wonder whether there was something they could have done for Mark, and whether there is something we can do when people close to us stop having a sense of belonging? In the film One of Us, a group of friends gather to celebrate their graduation anniversary and they ask themselves if they

could have helped their friend M. Ever since she was a little girl, M. was constantly abused by her father and the only way to deal with the agony by herself was to move to a different continent. Did she finally find peace and security in her new home? This time, Balkan Horizons take us as far as America, where a Greek immigrant family is on a long journey of self-discovery in the film Sundays. A seemingly perfect father decides to turn away from his vocation as a Greek orthodox priest and to file for divorce. What is it that for a moment made him return to his Greek homeland and reevaluate the truth behind his whole life? Serbian author Tamara Drakulić is also taking us to another continent with her new film In Praise of Love. She celebrates love through local, but yet universal myths and anecdotes from a dying village. In the Mexican desert, she finds new friends with whom she works on a movie that opens the question – why, even when it seems like there is nothing left for them there, people still choose to stay in their homes? Despite 2020 being the year of uncertainty and the year of asking numerous questions, our Balkan authors still give us hope and answers to some of them in their films, so I'm inviting you to join us, in praise of love. Because, as long as we have someone to ask – where is my friend's house? – we still have a place called home. SLOBODNA ZONA FREE ZONE | 13

Kompas Slobodne zone 2020. Ivan Milenković

Angažovani film, kao reakcija na određenu pojavu, na određeni događaj ili proces, i sam zahteva reakciju jer svojim sadržajem upućuje na ono izvan sebe. Angažovati se znači reagovati. Kompas Slobodne zone, govorni segment Festivala u kojem se razgovara o značenjima filma, reakcija je na reakciju. Svako delovanje nužno je praćeno govorom, te govoriti o značenjima angažovanog filma znači filmski izraz prevesti na drugi jezik, jednu vrstu iskustva artikulisati drugim sredstvima. Razgovorati o filmu znači isticati motive za delovanje kako bi se sloboda osvajala ili branila. Zbog toga što pokreće na delovanje, angažovani film je svojevrsni orijentir (ili oruđe za orijentaciju – kompas). Kompas postaje nužnim kada se javni prostor isprazni od sadržaja i kada se uklone orijentiri iz javnog života, a dezorijentacija građana postane politički program. Razgovor o angažovanom filmu znači običnim jezikom zahvatiti značenja filma i preneti ih dalje. Kompas je karika u ulančavanju značenja koja su prognana iz javnog života. Zbog toga su sagovornici u Kompasu uvek već upleteni,

na jedan ili drugi način, u sadržaj koji film zahvata. Dobar filmski izraz prisiljava na govor. Ako je film uvek nekakvo tumačenje stvarnosti, ponekad pokušaj preobražaja stvarnosti, ili čak izumevanja stvarnosti, razgovori o filmu, ili o motivima što ih film izdvaja i nudi, bili bi svojevrsno tumačenje tumačenja. Pitanje šta smo gledali i šta smo gledajući videli, banalno je do onog trenutka kada nas sama stvar, sam film, ne primora na govor: angažovanje uvek pretpostavlja govor. (I ćutljivi angažman mora da bude rečit i ekstreman, inače ne služi ničemu.) Govor je, utoliko, nužni pratilac filma, a Kompas Slobodne zone postavljanje orijentira u vreme magle i mraka.

Free Zone Compass 2020 Ivan Milenkovic

Socially engaged film, as a reaction to a certain phenomenon, to a certain event or process, requires a reaction itself because its content refers to what is beyond itself. To engage means to react. The Free Zone Compass, the segment of the festival which includes a discussion about the meaning of a certain film, is a reaction to the reaction. Every action is necessarily accompanied by speech, so talking about the meaning of all socially engaged films means translating the cinema expression into another language, articulating one type of expression by other means. Talking about film means highlighting the motives for action in order to win or defend freedom. Because it initiates action, socially engaged film is a landmark of its own kind (or a tool for orientation â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a compass). A compass becomes necessary when public space is devoid of content and when landmarks are removed from public life, and the disorientation of citizens becomes a political program. The discussion about socially engaged films means capturing the meaning of the film in ordinary

language and passing it on. Compass is a link in the chaining of meanings that are banished from public life. That is why the speakers in Compass are always already involved, one way or another, in the content that the film captures. Good cinematic expression forces discussion. If a film is always some kind of interpretation of reality and sometimes an attempt to transform reality, or even invent reality, discussions about films, or about the motives that those films single out and offer, would be a kind of interpretation of the interpretation. The question of what we were watching and what we saw is not important until the moment when the thing itself, the film itself, forces us to speak: engagement always includes speech (even the silent engagement must be eloquent and extreme, otherwise it serves no purpose). Speech is, to that extent, a necessary companion of the film, and The Free Zone Compass sets the landmark in times of fog and darkness.

SINOPSIS

SYNOPSIS

Koncertni film jednog od najvećih umetnika. Čovek, klavir i poezija. Veliki Nik Kejv iz prazne londonske koncertne dvorane „Aleksandra Palas“ donosi jedinstveno koncertno i filmsko iskustvo. Idiot Prayer: Nick Cave Alone at Alexandra Palace je dokaz da je umetnost i u ova neizvesna vremena spona među ljudima i da fizička distanca nije isto što i socijalna distanca; ljudi će se okupljati oko onog što im je blisko srcu, bliskost će se muzikom prenositi među ljudima bez obzira na to što se u jednom trenutku čovečanstvo našlo u samoći. A Kejv je za klavirom, sam, kao noseći stub svih koji su se zapitali kuda dalje i kako dalje. Nik Kejv je pandan melanholiji i samoći koje su nam tako bile zajedničke u jednom trenutku. A ovim koncertom je tu da pokaže da i u samoći postoji neko. Idiot Prayer (deo je trilogije koje čine filmovi 20.000 dana na zemlji i Još jednom s emocijom) u nešto više od sat i po koliko traje, donosi pesme iz svih faza karijere, od najranijih albuma do najnovijeg albuma Ghosteen, ali i pesme nastale u okviru benda Grinderman.

A concert film by one of the greatest artists. Man, piano and poetry. The great Nick Cave from the empty London concert hall Alexandra Palace brings a unique concert and film experience. Idiot Prayer: Nick Cave Alone at Alexandra Palace is proof that art is a link between people even in these uncertain times and that physical distance is not the same as social distance; people will gather around what is close to their heart, intimacy will be transmitted among people through music, regardless of the fact that at one point humanity found itself in loneliness. He plays the piano, all alone, like the supporting pillar of everyone who wondered where to go next and how to go next. Nick Cave is a counterpart to the melancholy and loneliness that was so common to us at one point. And with this concert, he is here to show that there is someone in solitude. Idiot Prayer (part of a trilogy consisting of films 20,000 Days on Earth and One More Time with Feeling) represents an intimate performance that features songs spanning Cave's entire career, from the earliest albums to the latest album Ghosteen, including songs with Grinderman.

SINOPSIS

SYNOPSIS

Dinamičan i angažovan dokumentarac o Kristofu Šlingenzifu, nemačkom reditelju i angažovanom umetniku čija je umetnost obojena underground kulturom i političkom angažovanošću. Šlingenzif - vrisak protiv ćutanja prati njegov razvoj počev od filmskog stvaraoca adolescenta koji je pokazivao umetničku želju, preko revolucionarnog scenskog reditelja u Berlinu i Bajrojtu, pa sve do nemačkog “nacionalnog umetnika” koga su svi poštovali i koji je pozvan da stvori nemački paviljon za Međunarodni filmski festival u Veneciji 2011. godine. Ovaj dokumentarac istražuje Šlingenzifov neiscrpni odnos ljubavi i mržnje prema Nemačkoj, njenoj visokoj kulturi i malograđanskim osećanjima – koja je pripisivao sebi više nego bilo kome drugom – kroz scene u kojima se od Istočnih Nemaca pravi kobasica, uzvika “Ubijte Helmuta Kola!” (documenta X) i pokušaja da oživi Vagnera (PARSIFAL).

A dynamic and engaging documentary about Christoph Schlingenzif, a German director and engaged artist whose art is influenced by underground culture and political engagement.. Schlingensief: A Voice That Shook the Silence traces his development from pubescent filmmaker with an artistic bloodlust to revolutionary stage director in Berlin and Bayreuth, and, ultimately, to Germany’s “national artist”, who was purportedly venerated by all and invited to create the German Pavilion for the 2011 Venice Biennale. Schlingensief: A Voice That Shook the Silence explores Schlingensief’s untiring, and ultimately inexhaustible, love-hate relationship to Germany, to its high culture, and to its petite-bourgeoisie sentiments – which he attributed to himself more than anyone else – via scenes of East Germans being made into sausage, shouts of “Kill Helmut Kohl!” (documenta X) and an attempt to rehabilitate Wagner (PARSIFAL).

O REDITELJKI Betina Buler je kao osamnaestogodišnjakinja počela da radi u studiju za sinhronizaciju kao asistent, preferirajući da uči kroz praksu u sobi za montažu, s obzirom da nije bilo mnogo izbora za formalno obrazovanje u oblasti filmskog stvaralaštva u Zapadnoj Nemačkoj.

SINOPSIS

SYNOPSIS

Od svetski poznatog filmskog stvaraoca Huberta Saupera - režisera pobedničkog filma Dolazimo kao prijatelji na Sandens festivalu i tvorca filma Darvinov košmar nominovanog za Oskara - dolazi Epicentro, imerzivan i metaforičan portret postkolonijalne, „utopijske“ Kube, gde se još uvek oseća eksplozija USS Maine mornarice iz 1898. godine. Ova velika eksplozija okončala je špansku kolonijalnu dominaciju u Americi i započela eru američke vladavine. U isto vreme i na istom mestu rodilo se moćno oružje: bioskop kao propaganda. U filmu Epicentro Sauper istražuje vek internacionalizma i stvaranja mitova, zajedno sa izvanrednim narodom Havane – posebno njenom decom, koju naziva „mladim prorocima“ – da ispituju vreme, imperijalizam i sam bioskop.

From world-renowned filmmaker Hubert Sauper — director of Sundance winner We Come as Friends and the Oscar-nominated Darwin’s Nightmare — comes Epicentro, an immersive and metaphorical portrait of post-colonial, «utopian» Cuba, where the 1898 explosion of the USS Maine still resonates. This Big Bang ended Spanish colonial dominance in the Americas and ushered in the era of the American Empire. At the same time and place, a powerful tool of conquest was born: cinema as propaganda. In Epicentro, Sauper explores a century of interventionism and myth-making together with the extraordinary people of Havana – particularly its children, who he calls «young prophets» – to interrogate time, imperialism and cinema itself.

SYNOPSIS

Leto u Parizu, a grad je pust. Než redovno posećuje svog voljenog dedu Alžirca u domu za penzionere. Emir ju je odgojio i pružio zaštitu od njenih otrovnih roditelja. Okružena je brojnim članovima porodice - braćom, sestrom, tetkom, majkom. Odnosi između njih su teški, ispunjeni nezadovoljstvom i gorčinom. Emirova smrt eskaliraće porodične tenzije i izazvaće duboku krizu identiteta za Než.

O REDITELJKI Maiven je rođena 1976. godine, a glumačku karijeru je započela još kao devojčica. Kad je imala 16 godina dobila je prvo dete sa rediteljem Lukom Besonom, koga je upoznala 1991. Nagađa se da je upravo ona bila inspiracija za lik Matilde u Besonovom filmu Profesionalac iz 1994. godine. Kada se njihova veza završila, Maiven se vratila u Francusku i 2006. je režirala svoj prvi autobiografski film, Oprosti mi. Njen film Polisse osvojio je nagradu žirija na Filmskom festivalu u Kanu 2011. godine.

DIRECTOR'S BIOGRAPHY Born in 1976, Maïwenn began her career as a child actress. At 16, she had her first child with director Luc Besson, whom she met in 1991. Maïwenn is speculated to be the inspiration for the Mathilda character in Besson's 1994 film, Léon: The Professional. When their relationship ended, she returned to France and in 2006, she directed her first feature, the autobiographical Forgive Me. Her film Polisse won the Jury Prize at the 2011 Cannes Film Festival.

SINOPSIS

SYNOPSIS

Ovaj fantastičan dokumentarac nas uvodi u svet autizma na najneverovatniji i duboko emotivan način.

Based on the best-selling book by Naoki Higashida, The Reason I Jump is an immersive cinematic exploration of neurodiversity through the experiences of nonspeaking autistic people from around the world. The film blends Higashida’s revelatory insights into autism, written when he was just 13, with intimate portraits of five remarkable young people. It opens a window into an intense and overwhelming, but often joyful, sensory universe. Acutely observed moments in the lives of each of the characters are connected by passages from Naoki’s writing, in which a young Japanese boy journeys through an epic landscape, gradually discovering what his autism means to him, how his perception of the world differs, and why he acts in the way he does: the reason he jumps. The film distils these elements into a sensually rich tapestry that leads us to Naoki’s core message: not being able to speak does not mean there is nothing to say.

Baziran na bestseleru Naokija Higašide, Razlog zbog kog skačem je... je filmsko uranjanje i istraživanje naše neurološke različitosti kroz iskustva nemih i autističnih ljudi širom sveta. Film je spoj Higašidinih ličnih doživljaja autizma, napisanih kada je imao samo 13 godina, sa intimnim portretima petoro izvanrednih mladih ljudi. Otvara nam vrata čulnog univerzuma, moćnog i sveobuhvatnog, često i radosnog. Temeljno praćeni momenti iz života svakog od pet likova povezani su motivima i odlomcima iz knjige. Film prati japanskog dečaka koji putuje kroz epski pejzaž postepeno otkrivajući šta njegov autizam predstavlja, kako se njegovo poimanje sveta razlikuje i zašto se ponaša na način na koji se ponaša i na kraju krajeva: zašto skače. Film je sve ove elemente utkao u čulno bogatu vizuelnu priču koja nas vodi do srži Naokijeve poruke: ako neko ne ume da priča, ne znači da nema šta i da kaže.

SINOPSIS

SYNOPSIS

Dve decenije je porodica Enake, roditelji i njihovo devetoro dece, živela u baraci usred divljine Bukureštanske delte — napuštenog rečnog ušća, jednog od najvećih urbanih rezervata prirode na svetu, sačinjenog od jezera i nekoliko stotina životinjskih vrsta i retkih biljaka. Kada je vlast odlučila sa preuzme kontrolu nad ovim retkim urbanim ekosistemom, porodica Enake je bila prinuđena da se preseli u grad — u novu realnost koju nisu poznavali. Deca, navikla da provode dane u prirodi, morala su da se prilagode gradskom životu — da idu u školu umesto na jezero, a ribarske štapove zamenili su mobilnim telefonima. Njihov identitet je doveden u pitanje, a potom je i transformisan, zajedno sa doživljajem slobode i porodičnim odnosima.

For two decades, the Enache family—nine kids and their parents— lived in a shack in the wilderness of Bucharest Delta: an abandoned water reservoir, one of the biggest urban natural reservations in the world, with lakes and hundreds of species of animals and rare plants. When the authorities decide to claim back this rare urban ecosystem, the Enache family is evicted and told to resettle in the city—a reality they know nothing about. Kids that used to spend their days in nature have to learn about city life, go to school instead of swimming in the lake, and swap their fishing rods for mobile phones. Their identity has been questioned and transformed, along with their sense of freedom and family ties. DIRECTOR'S BIOGRAPHY

SYNOPSIS

Na proslavi petnaeste godišnjice mature, društvo iz razreda se priseća srednjoškolskih dogodovština. Kako veče odmiče, hrana i pića se nižu, razgovori su sve otvoreniji, ali jednu temu s nelagodom izbegavaju. Sve dok ih alkohol ne ohrabri da započnu razgovor o šokantnom pismu koje su svi primili. Pismu u kojem njihova drugarica iz razreda iznosi svoju mučnu ispovest o brutalnom zlostavljanju koje je proživljavala kao dete i srednjoškolka. Film prati grupu ljudi koji tokom jedne večere pokušavaju da pronađu način da započnu razgovor o spoznaji koja ih je sve šokirala.

The classmates have gathered for their 15th high school reunion, reminiscing about their high school adventures. As the evening progresses, different dinner courses and drinks are brought out and the conversations become more open, yet there is one topic that everyone keeps avoiding, until the alcohol encourages them to mention the shocking letter they have all received. The letter is a torturous confessional of one of their former classmates in which she reveals the brutal abuse she endured as a child and during high school. The film follows a group of people who over the course of one evening try to find a way to discuss the realization that has shaken them to their core.

Nakon trideset godina službe u grčkoj pravoslavnoj crkvi u SAD-u, Tom Avramis, čovek poznat u zajednici po svojoj harizmatičnoj ličnosti i dinamičnim govornim sposobnostima, neočekivano odlučuje da napusti sveštenstvo. Kada se otkrije video dnevnik iz prošlosti, u kojem se Tom ispoveda iskazujući svoje misli, brige i sumnje kojima je bio obuzet dok je bio duhovni vođa, klupko priče počinje da se odmotava. Tek kada Tomova ćerka, Aletea, usmeri kameru prema njemu, otkrivaju se tajne o njegovoj prošlosti, ali i sadašnjosti. Sastavljajući delove Tomovog života, film Nedelje nam pruža uvid u razmišljanja i poglede jednog sveštenika — u ulogu koja je javna, ali čiji se unutrašnji svet tako retko istražuje. Ovo je egzistencijalno putovanje naizgled srećnog i ispunjenog čoveka, ispričano očima njegove ćerke; duboko lična, a opet univerzalna priča o istini, porodici, identitetu i nadi.

After thirty years of serving as a Greek Orthodox priest in the US, Tom Avramis, a man known in the community for his charismatic personality and dynamic speaking abilities, unexpectedly decides to leave the priesthood. When a video-diary from the past is discovered, in which Tom confesses to himself the deeper thoughts, burdens and doubts he experienced being a spiritual leader, the story begins to unfold. It is only when Tom’s daughter, Alethea, turns the camera on him that secrets about his past and present are revealed. Piecing together Tom’s life, Sundays provides access into the mind and perspective of a priest – a role that is so public in nature but whose private world is rarely explored. This is the existential journey of a seemingly happy and fulfilled man, told through his daughter’s eyes; a deeply personal, yet universal story about truth, family, identity and hope.

SINOPSIS

SYNOPSIS

Otvarajući vrata svom svetu punom mitova, odvažnih susreta, poduhvata i dubokog uvida u manje očigledne tokove društvene stvarnosti, Beto vodi nas i do mesta koje najviše voli da posećuje - do nepoznatog. Sintetički svet, stvoren za potrebe ovog filma, povezuje malo pustinjsko selo sa Šekspirom, lokalnim legendama sa romantičnom tragedijom koja se dešava na dalekom kontinentu, trenutnom svakodnevnom životu sa tragovima prošlih vremena. Prateći Beta koji nas vodi prema „centru njegovog sveta“, takođe pokazuje nameru izraženu u naslovu ovog filma onako kako izgleda sa ovog puta i približava čoveka tački sa koje je briga o sebi otkrivena kao neraskidivo povezana sa brigom o bićima oko nas.

While opening the door to his world full of myths, daring encounters, endeavors and deep insights into less obvious currents of social reality, Beto also takes us to the place he likes to visit the most - to unknown. The synthetic world, created for the sake of this film, is connecting a small desert village with Shakespeare, local legends with romantic tragedy happening at the distant continent, current everyday life with traces of the times that passed. Following Beto who is leading us toward the “center of his world”, is also showing the intention expressed in the title of this film the way it seems looked from this path, and brings one closer to the the point from which self-care is revealed as inextricably linked to the care of the beings around us.

SYNOPSIS

Svestan da mu se bliži kraj života, šezdesetogodišnji Vasil Karturan odlučuje da uradi sve što je potrebno kako bi obezbedio sigurnu budućnost svom unuku, tinejdžeru čiji je jedini staratelj. Ipak, ništa nije jednostavno i svaki korak je novi izazov za njega, tim pre što namerava da održi pogrebni prijem dok je još u životu, kako mu uostalom tradicija nalaže, a čemu se suprotstavlja seoski sveštenik. Međutim, Karturan ne namerava da popusti u ostvarenju svojih ciljeva.

Learning that his days are numbered, sixty-year-old Vasile Carturan sets about putting his affairs in order and providing for the future of his orphaned grandson, a teenager who is in his care. Nothing turns out to be simple, however, and every step presents a challenge for him. All the more so because he also intends to hold a funeral banquet while he is still alive, as tradition dictates, a plan opposed by the village priest. But Carturan has no intention of giving way.

SYNOPSIS

Pre sedam vekova u temelje grada je kao žrtva uzidana princeza. Zidari su joj ostavili rupu za dojke, kako bi mogla da hrani bebu. Čudo se dogodilo i mleko je nastavilo da teče vekovima. Danas zbog ekonomske krize, vlada privatizuje grudi i pretvara ih u brend. Drevno mesto sada je gradilište na kom premijer najavljuje nove ideje i žrtvovanja.

Seven centuries ago, a princess was built into the foundations of the city as a sacrifice. The masons left her a breast hole so she could feed the baby. A miracle happened and the milk continued to flow for centuries. Today, due to the economic crisis, the government is privatizing breasts and turning them into a brand. The ancient place is now a construction site where the Prime Minister announces new ideas and sacrifices.

SINOPSIS

SYNOPSIS

Saša je jedna preslatka sedmogodišnja devojčica. U stvari, ona je oduvek znala da je devojčica iako je rođena u telu dečaka. Iako je društvo zakazalo u tome da je tretira kao i ostalu decu tog uzrasta, u njenom svakodnevnom životu, od treninga plesa do dečijih rođendana, njena porodica vodi veliku bitku da omogući da njena različitost bude prihvaćena i da je ljudi oko nje razumeju. Jedan od najznačajnijih savremenih reditelja Sebastian Lifštic prati Sašu i njenu porodicu godinu dana beležeći svojom kamerom istinski dirljive momente sreće i mnogih izazova sa kojima se kao porodica suočavaju. Ovo je inspirišući portret nekoga ko traži tako malo – da bude prihvaćen onakvim kakav jeste.

7-year-old Sasha has always known she was a little girl, even though she was born a boy. As society fails to treat her like the other children her age -- in her daily life at school, dance lessons or birthday parties -- her supportive family leads a constant battle to make her difference understood and accepted. Multi-award winner Sébastien Lifshitz follows Sasha and her family for a year, capturing with his insightful, delicate and subtle camera their truly moving moments of joy and the many challenges they face together. This is an inspiring portrait of someone who asks so little - to be accepted as he is.

SINOPSIS

SYNOPSIS

Nakon prikazivanja dokumentararnog filma Mir Hasana Fazilija na avganistanskoj nacionalnoj televiziji 2015. godine, talibani su ubili protagonistu filma i raspisali poternicu za Hasanom. Hasan je tada pogledao svoju ženu i ćerke znajući da moraju da pobegnu iz svog doma. U višegodišnjoj potrazi za bezbednošću, jedino sredstvo koje im je davalo kontrolu bila je kamera mobilnog telefona. Hasan i njegova žena Fatima se oboje bave filmom, školuju svoju decu i podstiču ih da se bave umetnošću. Cela porodica je snimila ovaj autobiografski film koji počinje kada im je zahtev za zaštitu izbeglica odbijen i prati njihov put kroz zloglasnu krijumčarsku rutu na Balkanu. Zbog različitih ponižavajućih situacija koje su ih zadesile na tom putu, snimanje filma doživeli su ne samo kao način preživaljavanja, već i kao način da zadrže sopstvenu ljudskost. Ponoćni putnik je potresna istinita priča koju je snimila porodica u begu. Njihov jedinstven pristup i umetnička vizija pružaju nam intiman prikaz porodice pune ljubavi i gomile saputnika koje su upoznali u svojoj odiseji.

In 2015, after Hassan Fazili’s documentary Peace aired on Afghan national television, the Taliban assassinated the film’s main subject and put a price on Hassan’s head. Hassan looked at his wife and his daughters, and he knew they had to flee their home. Over the course of their multi-year saga in search of safety, the family grasped onto the only means they had to assert control over their situation: their camera-phones. Hassan and his wife Fatima are both filmmakers, and they are educating their daughters and encouraging them to be artists. The whole family shot this autobiographical film, which began when they sought and were rejected for refugee protection and follows them along the notorious Balkan smuggling route. As they experienced increasingly degrading circumstances, the family latched on to filmmaking as a way to not just survive, but retain their humanity. Midnight Traveler is a gripping vérité story made by a family on the run. Their unique access and artistic vision provide an intimate portrait of a loving family and the myriad fellow travelers they meet on their odyssey.

SINOPSIS

SYNOPSIS

Šesnaestogodišnji Jurij čitav svoj život živi u Gagarin kulama, velikim crvenim zgradama od cigle na periferiji Pariza. On sanja da postane astronaut. Kada se pročuje da je u planu rušenje kula, Jurij se pridružuje otporu i zajedno sa svojim prijateljima upušta se u misiju spašavanja sopstvenog doma, koji za njega postaje „zvezdani brod” – pre nego što zauvek nestane u svemiru.

Yuri, 16, has lived all his life in Gagarine Towers, a vast red brick housing project on the outskirts of Paris. From the heights of his apartment, he dreams of becoming an astronaut. But when plans to demolish his community’s home are leaked, Yuri joins the resistance. With his friends Diana and Houssam, he embarks on a mission to save Gagarine, transforming the estate into his own “starship” – before it disappears into space forever.

O REDITELJIMA Pre nego što su snimili svoj prvi film, Fani i Džeremi su zajedno studirali na Fakultetu političkih nauka u Bordou. Kasnije su prešli na filmsko stvaralaštvo putujući i upoznajući ljude koji su njihov san učinili dostupnijim. Pobedili su na konkursu u pisanju scenarija 2014. godine, što im je omogućilo da naprave svoj prvi kratki film Gagarin koji je prikazan na brojnim festivalima (Message to Man, Flickerfest, Sundance Channel). Potom su snimili filmove La république des enchanteurs (Palm Springs, Clermont-Ferrand) i Chien Bleu (nominacija za Cezar nagradu 2020, međunarodna nagrada kritičara UniFrance). Gagarin, njihov debitantski dugometražni film, nastao je iz njihovog prvog kratkometražnog filma snimljenog sa stanovnicima ovog pariskog stambenog projekta koji se menja munjevitom brzinom.

DIRECTOR'S BIOGRAPHY Before making their first film, Fanny and Jeremy studied together at the School of Political Science in Bordeaux. They switched to filmmaking later through traveling and meeting people who made the dream more accessible. In 2014, they won a screenwriting contest that allowed them to make their first short, Gagarine, which screened at numerous festivals (Message to Man, Flickerfest, Sundance Channel). Then came La république des enchanteurs (Palm Springs, Clermont-Ferrand) and Chien Bleu (César Award nomination 2020, UniFrance International Critics Award). Gagarine, their debut feature, evolved out of their first short with the inhabitants of this rapidly-changing swath of Paris housing projects.

Manuel je proteran iz kraljevstva, a izdali su ga oni koji su mu bili prijatelji do pre samo nekoliko sati. Iako stranka želi da na njega svali svu odgovornost, Manuel se ne predaje. Uz jedinu potporu supruge i ćerke, Manuel shvata da je primoran da se bori protiv mašinerije korupcije koja je godinama dobro podmazivana kao i protiv partijskog sistema u kojem kraljevi propadaju, ali carstva opstaju.

Manuel, an influential deputy secretary of a regional government who has everything going his way for making the leap into national politics, sees how his perfect life falls to pieces after news leaks of his involvement in a corruption ring with Paco, one of his best friends. While the media starts reporting the extent of the scandal, the party closes ranks and only Paco comes out unscathed. Manuel is expelled from the kingdom, singled out by public opinion and betrayed by those who had been his friends until only a few hours ago. Although the party wants him to bear full responsibility, Manuel refuses to fall alone. With the sole backing of his wife and his daughter, and caught in a spiral to survive, Manuel will see himself forced to fight against the machinery of corruption which has been well greased for years and against a party system in which the kings fall, but the kingdoms continue.

SINOPSIS

SYNOPSIS

Marin le Pen je poražena na francuskim izborima koji su doveli na vlast Emanuela Makrona, ali njena krajnje desničarska stranka sa svojom nacionalističkom, antiimigrantskom platformom, nastavlja da postoji kako bi nahranila strah i nezadovoljstvo koji su se rodili pobedom Donalda Trampa na američkim izborima. Ovo je naša zemlja je priča o samohranoj majci iz radničke klase na severu Francuske, koja se naivno odlučuje na kandidaturu za gradonačelnicu, predstavljajući Patriotski blok. Zahvaljujući šarmantnom Andreu Dusolijeru, u ulozi cenjenog gradskog lekara, retorika populista preuzima kontrolu nad umom biračkog tela. U filmu se pojavljuje i Katarina Žakob u ulozi plavokose liderke koja se nikada nije susrela sa nezadovoljnom gomilom koju nije mogla učiniti još gnevnijom.

Marine Le Pen was defeated in the French election that brought Emmanuel Macron to power, but her far right-wing party, with its nationalist, anti-immigrant platform, lives on to feed the fear and resentment that begot Donald Trump’s election. This is Our Land is a fictionalized story of an attractive working-class single mother in the North of France who naively agrees to run for mayor, representing the Patriotic Bloc. With the help of a charming André Dussollier as the town’s esteemed physician, the Populists’ rhetoric seizes control of the minds of the electorate. With Catherine Jacob as the blonde-bobbed leader who never met an angry crowd she couldn’t make angrier. DIRECTOR'S BIOGRAPHY

SINOPSIS

SYNOPSIS

Serđo je čileanski špijun. Tačnije rečeno, takozvani specijalni špijun - insajder!

Sergio is a Chilean spy. Sort of. At least, he is offered the role of one after a casting session organized by Detective Romulo, a private investigator who needs a credible mole to infiltrate a retirement home. Romulo’s client, the concerned daughter of a resident, suspects her mother is being abused and hires him to find out what is really happening. However, Sergio is 83, not 007, and not an easy trainee when it comes to technology and spying techniques. But he is a keen student, looking for ways to distract himself after recently losing his wife. What could be a better distraction than some undercover spy action? While gathering intelligence, Sergio grows close to several residents and realizes that the menacing truth beneath the surface is not what anyone had suspected.

Izabran je preko oglasa u kome se izričito zahtevalo da kandidati imaju više od 80 godina, da nemaju problem sa moralnim dilemama i da imaju dobro pamćenje. Naime, Serđa je angažovao privatni detektiv kako bi otkrio da li u domu za stare postoji zlostavljanje na koje sumnja ćerka jedne od korisnica. Serđo je odličan kandidat, ali ne i idealan, jer kada na red dođe obuka za tehnološke i špijunske tehnike, on pomalo posustaje. Međutim, rešen je da istraje tražeći način da zaboravi nedavni gubitak supruge. A šta bi bio bolji lek od špijunskog zadatka koji mu je poveren? Ovaj neponovljivi i duhoviti dokumentarac prati Serđa, koji se tokom svog boravka u domu zbližava sa nekoliko njegovih korisnika i otkriva istinu kojoj se niko nije nadao. O REDITELJKI Maite Alberdi je studirala kinematografiju na Katoličkom univerzitetu u Čileu.

SINOPSIS

SYNOPSIS

Film Toni Morison: delovi mene nudi nam umešnu i intimnu meditaciju o životu i delu legendarne književnice i laureata Nobelove nagrade: počev od detinjstva provedenog u Loreni, Ohaju, do književnih turneja sa Muhamedom Alijem sedamdesetih godina; od borbenih redova sa Anđelom Dejvis pa do spokoja svoje radne sobe sa pogledom na obalu. Toni Morison predvodi grupu svojih savremenika, kritičara i kolega u polju istraživanja rasnog identiteta, istorije Amerike i čovečanstva, kao i ljudskog stanja, dominantnih tema njenog književnog opusa. Kako ovu “malu crnkinju” niko nije uzimao za ozbiljno, što ju je i podstaklo da piše, Morisonova se bavi problematikom večite dekonstrukcije metanarativa. Satkan od bogatog umetničkog, istorijskog, književnog, ali i ličnog materijala, film sadrži i rasprave o njenim brojnim, kritički priznatim, delima u koje spadaju romani: The Bluest Eye, Sula i Song of Solomon, o njenoj ulozi urednika kultne afroameričke književnosti i o vremenu dok je predavala na Univerzitetu Prinston. U filmu su prikazani intervjui sa Hiltonom Alsom, Anđelom Dejvis, Fran Lebovic, Volterom Mozlijem, Sonjom Sančez i Oprom Vinfri, koja je adaptirala autorkinu pripovetku Beloved u igrani film.

Toni Morrison: The Pieces I Am offers an artful and intimate meditation on the life and works of the legendary storyteller and Nobel prize-winner. From her childhood in the steel town of Lorain, Ohio to ‘70s-era book tours with Muhammad Ali, from the front lines with Angela Davis to her own riverfront writing room, Toni Morrison leads an assembly of her peers, critics and colleagues on an exploration of race, America, history and the human condition as seen through the prism of her own literature. Inspired to write because no one took a “little black girl” seriously, Morrison reflects on her lifelong deconstruction of the master narrative. Woven together with a rich collection of art, history, literature and personality, the film includes discussions about her many critically acclaimed works, including novels “The Bluest Eye,” “Sula” and “Song of Solomon,” her role as an editor of iconic African-American literature and her time teaching at Princeton University. In addition to Ms. Morrison, the film features interviews with Hilton Als, Angela Davis, Fran Lebowitz, Walter Mosley, Sonia Sanchez and Oprah Winfrey, who turned Morrison’s novel Beloved into a feature film.

SYNOPSIS

Glavna junakinja filma, Undine, koju igra mlada zvezda evropskog filma Pola Bir, je istoričarka koja radi kao kustoskinja u jednom od muzeja u Berlinu. Nestvarno lepa, zna sve o Humbolt Forumu, a način na koji iznosi svoje znanje o istoriji grada koji je izgrađen na močvari posetiocima muzeja je koliko profesionalan, toliko i graciozan. Njena stara ljubav Johanes odlazi, i ceo njen svet se raspada. Dani prolaze, a njen pogled dok drži prezentacije luta prema dvorišnom kafeu tražeći da li je on i dalje tu...ili je još uvek tu...ili je opet tu. Sasvim slučajno upoznaje Kristofa, ronioca koji radi na podvodnim istraživanjima. Zaljubljuje se u njega i čini se da novi život za nju tek počinje.

Undine (Paula Beer) works in Berlin as a historian and guide to the city‘s development. She has a small apartment at Alexanderplatz, a master‘s degree in history, and a freelance contract. But underneath the appearance of her modern city life lurks an old myth: if the man Undine loves betrays her, she has to kill him and return to the water she once came from. So when her lover Johannes (Jacob Matschenz) leaves her for another woman, Undine thinks she has no choice – until in the moment of betrayal, she meets Christoph (Franz Rogowski), an industrial diver, and unexpectedly falls for him. This is a new, happy and innocent love filled with curiosity and trust. But when Christoph starts to feel that Undine is running away from something, she has to face her curse once and for all. She doesn‘t want to lose this love.

SYNOPSIS

Umetnice Marina Abramović, Sigalit Landau, Širin Nešat i Katarina Siverding su politizovane od strane svojih iskustava sa ratom, nasiljem i ugnjetavanjem. Upravo ta iskustva, integrisale su u umetnička dela koristeći svoja tela kao najličniji oblik ispoljavanja. Pratimo ih na emotivnom putovanju i ponovo proživljavamo sukobe koji su im oblikovali svest. Ove četiri žene potiču iz različitih kultura, čije borbe odražavaju velike sukobe sadašnjice.

Artists Marina Abramovic, Sigalit Landau, Shirin Neshat and Katharina Sieverding have been politicized by experiences with war, violence and suppression and integrated them into their work, using the most personal feature available: their own bodies. We accompany them on an emotional journey, reexperiencing the conflicts that have shaped their consciousness. The four women originate from different cultures, whose struggles epitomize the grand conflicts of our time.

Model koji reguliše život drveća i biljaka, osvetljen gvozdenim pravilom solidarnosti i kohezije, ključ je svesti koja se ne može dalje odlagati. Voleben je putovao u Švedsku da vidi najstarija drveća na svetu, posetio je fabrike u Vankuveru koje istražuju nove pristupe očuvanju životne sredine i pridružio se demonstracijama ekoloških aktivista svuda. Sudbina čoveka i njegovog opstanka na Zemlji je usko povezana sa dobrim zdravljem velikih šuma i vreme da se o njima brinemo je upravo sada.

Today the entire planet talks about the environment and environmentalism - yet it often forgets to listen to Nature itself first. Peter Wohlleben, author of the bestseller The Secret Life of Trees, travels from one continent to another to reveal and describe the secret world of forests. The model that regulates the life of trees and plants, illuminated by an iron rule of solidarity and cohesion, is the key to an awareness that cannot be further delayed. Wohlleben traveled to Sweden to see the oldest trees in the world, visited factories in Vancouver that explore new approaches to environmental conservation, and joined the demonstrations of environmentalists everywhere. Because the fate of man and his survival on Earth is intimately linked to the good health of the great forests and the time to take care of them is now.

SINOPSIS

SYNOPSIS

Ilegalna seča drveća je globalni biznis koji donosi milijarde. Aleksander fon Bizmark, naslednik Čeličnog kancelara i šef Agencije za istragu životne sredine u Vašingtonu, uspešno traga za “drvnom” mafijom širom sveta – sa obojenom kosom, sakrivenom kamerom i opremom za snimanje glasa. Njegov glavni interes nije da razotkrije neki skandal, već da promoviše promenu svesti političara i građanstva i da formira nov kodeks ponašanja koji će važiti za globalnu ekonomiju i potrošače. Film Šuma je ekološki triler koji svoju napetost dobija iz naše svakodnevne tužne stvarnosti.

Illegal logging is a global business worth billions. Alexander von Bismarck, descendant of the Iron Chancellor and head of the Environmental Investigation Agency in Washington D.C., successfully pursues the machinations of the timber mafia worldwide – with dyed hair, a concealed camera and sound recording equipment. His primary concern isn't to expose a scandalous situation, but rather to promote a change in the consciousness of politics and civil society and to bring about a new code of conduct for the global economy and consumers. Wood is an environmental thriller that draws its tension from sad everyday reality.

SINOPSIS

SYNOPSIS

Kako treba da izgleda dobar i uspešan život? Da li je drugačiji način života uopšte moguć? Ovo je film koji traga za odgovorima na ova pitanja. Rezultat je priča o perspektivama bez straha, o povezanosti u muzici, prirodi i društvu, o ljudima sa različitim idejama, ali sa jednim velikim, zajedničkim ciljem: održivim i lepšim svetom. Reditelj Ervin Vagenhofer traga za lepotom i dobrotom i prikazuje ljude koji stvaraju nešto inovativno i korisno. Žene bez obrazovanja koje grade solarne panele po selima širom sveta. Vizionari koji pusta polja transformišu u nove zelene oaze. Šumar koji razvija izgradnju najzdravijih kuća u svetu. Duhovni vođa sa svojim nestašnim i suštinskim porukama i njegova sestra sa Tibeta sa ogromnim srcem za mlade. Mladi džez trio, pijanista… Ovaj film ih sve spaja. Da li će na kraju sve biti u redu? Da, na kraju sve može ispasti kako treba.

How’s a good and successful life supposed to look like? Is a “different” life possible at all? This film searches for the answers on these questions. The result is a film about perspectives without fear, about connectedness in music, nature and society, about people with different ideas but one big common goal: a sustainable world. Filmmaker Erwin Wagenhofer looks for the beautiful and the good and shows people who break new ground. Women without school education who build solar systems for villages all over the world. Permaculture visionaries who transform wasteland into new greenery. A forester who develops the healthiest houses in the world. A spiritual leader with mischief and essential messages and his Tibetan sister with a big heart for youth. A young jazz trio, an established pianist… But Beautiful connects them all. Can everything be fine at the end? Yes, everything can be good.

SYNOPSIS

Nakon tragične smrti svoje majke, sedamnaestogodišnja Ida se useljava kod tetke Bodil i njena tri odrasla sina. Ida u početku nalazi utehu u njihovom domu koji je ispunjen fizičkom nežnošću i snažnim osećajem jedinstva. Ali mračnija stvarnost kriminalnog načina života njene porodice i toksična dinamika polako je guraju da prihvati nasilje, zavisnost i zastrašivanje kao normalno. Tek kad situacija izmakne kontroli, Ida shvata da je ljubav i nasilje postalo nemoguće razdvojiti. Sumnjajući da li zaista pripada ovom lojalnom, ali opasnom matrijarhu i bratstvu na ivici, Ida se suočava sa istim pitanjem sa kojim se majka suočavala pre nje: koliko daleko ste spremni da idete za svoju porodicu?

Following the tragic death of her mother, seventeen-year-old Ida falls into the care of her estranged aunt Bodil and Bodil’s three grown sons. Ida initially finds comfort in their home, which is filled with physical tenderness and a strong sense of unity. But the darker reality of her family’s criminal way of life and toxic dynamics slowly pushes her to accept violence, addiction and intimidation as normal. It isn’t until the situation spirals out of control that Ida realizes that love and violence have become impossible to separate. Doubting if she really belongs with this loyal, but dangerous matriarch and a brotherhood on the edge, Ida faces the same question that her mother once faced before her; just how far are you willing to go for your family?

SYNOPSIS

Pustiti ptice da lete na žutom nebu je najodvratnija stvar koju smo ikada videli. Krčenje šuma, zagađenje vazduha i vode, globalno zagrevanje, klimatske promene i društvena neodgovornost samo jednom rečju: NOSOTROS.

Letting birds fly in a yellow sky is the most disgusting thing we have ever seen. Deforestation, air and water pollution, global warming, climate change, and non social responsibility in only one word: NOSOTROS.

DOK./DOC.

SINOPSIS

SYNOPSIS

Umetnost sećanja je dokumentarni film o monumentalnim spomenicima podignutim u periodu socijalizma na tlu bivše Jugoslavije. Osnovna namera filma je da na primeru spomenika pokaže da će prava umetnost opstati, naći put do publike i preživeti smene ideologija i političkih uređenja. Spomenici su istovremeno simboli stradanja i čovekove borbe za slobodu, za bolju i svetliju budućnost. O tome kako su nastali neki od najvažnijih spomenika i kako je bilo stvarati u tom periodu u filmu svedoči skulptor prof. Miodrag Živković, autor spomenika na Kadinjači, Tjentištu, u Kragujevcu... To su apstraktne konstrukcije, lišene ideoloških simbola (srp, čekić) i kulta ličnosti koji je veoma prisutan u spomeničkoj skulpturi drugih socijalističkih zemalja. Njihov oblik i dizajn su moderni, čak i futuristički, vizionarski, dok je njihova tehnička izvedba impresivna.

Milestones is a documentary on monumental memorials erected during the period of socialism on the territory of the former Yugoslavia. The basic intention of the film is to demonstrate, on the example of the monument, that true art will remain, find its way to the audience and survive the shift of ideologies and political systems. Monuments are at the same time symbols of the suffering and man's struggle for freedom, for a better and brighter future. The sculptor prof. Miodrag Zivkovic, the author of the monuments at Kadinjaca, Tjentiste, Kragujevac, testifies about how some of the most important monuments were created and how it was to create during this period. These are abstract constructions, devoid of ideological symbols (sickle, hammer) and a cult of personality very present in the monumental sculpture of other socialist countries. Their form and design are modern, even futuristic, visionary, while their technical side is impressive.

U udaljenoj dolini na Islandu, Gumi i Kidi žive jedan pored drugog, čuvajući svoje ovce. Njihova vekovima stara rasa se smatra jednom od najboljih na ostrvu i braća redovno dobijaju nagrade za njihove neprocenjive ovnove koji nastavljaju tradicionalnu liniju. Iako dele zemlju i način života, nisu progovorili ni reč već četiri decenije. Kada opasna zaraza napadne Kidijeve ovce, cela dolina je u opasnosti. Vlasti odlučuju da unište sve životinje u kraju kako bi zaustvili epidemiju. Za farmere za koje su ovce glavni izvor prihoda, to je ravno smrtnoj presudi i mnogi napuštaju zemlju. Ali Gumi i Kidi se ne predaju tako lako – i svaki na svoj način, pokušavaju da spreče katastrofu.

In a remote valley in Iceland, Gumi and Kidi live side by side, tending their sheep. Their centuries-old breed is considered one of the best on the island and the brothers regularly receive awards for their invaluable rams that continue the traditional line. Although they share a country and a way of life, they have not spoken a word for four decades. When a dangerous infection attacks Kidi's sheep, the entire valley is in danger. Authorities decide to destroy all the animals in the area in order to stop the epidemic. For farmers for whom sheep are the main source of income, this is tantamount to a death sentence and many leave the country. But Gumi and Kidi don't give up so easily and each in their own way, trying to prevent a catastrophe.

Oskarom nagrađena drama je priča o dva dana u životu Šaula Auslandera, mađarskog logoraša koji radi kao član specijalnog tima koji uklanja tela ubijenih logoraša u jednom od krematorijuma Aušvica. Otkrivši telo dečaka koga smatra svojim sinom pokušava nemoguće – da spase telo dečaka, pronađe rabina i dostojno ga sahrani. Iako će i njihov tim biti svakog trenutka likvidiran, Šaul se okreće od preživelih i njihovih planova za otpor da bi spasao ostatke sina o kome nikad nije vodio računa dok je bio živ.

SINOPSIS

SYNOPSIS

Film Demokratija otkriva mistični svet političkih zakulisnih radnji, lobiranja i nadmetaja oko novog zakona Evropske unije o prikupljanju i čuvanju ličnih podataka. Mladi nemački aktivista i član evropskog parlamenta, Jan Filip Albreht, zajedno sa EU komesarkom Vivijen Reding pokušaće nemoguće – pobedu nad sirovim i netransparentnim sistemom političke moći. Nakon dve i po godine prljave političke igre i praćenja složenog zakonskog procesa dokumentarni film Demokratija oživljava složene strukture moći i prikazuje samo deo posledica na današnje stanje evropske i svetske demokratije i našu digitalnu budućnost.

Democracy offers an insight into a hidden world of political struggle for new data protection legislation in the European Union. EuroMP Jan Philipp Albrecht and EU-Commissioner Viviane Reding attempt the supposedly impossible. They take on a hard-edged apparatus of political power, in which intrigue, success and failure are frequent bedfellows. After two and a half years following the legislative process, the documentary brings complex power structures to life and offers a snapshot of democracy today.

SYNOPSIS

Jedan dan, jedan život. Rim, u noći 2. novembra 1975. godine, veliki italijanski pesnik i reditelj Pjer Paolo Pazolini je ubijen. Pazolini je simbol umetnosti koja se bori protiv moći. Njegovi napisi su skandalozni, njegove filmove sankcionišu cenzori, mnogi ga vole, ali ga mnogi i mrze. Dan pred smrt, Pazolini provodi poslednje sate sa voljenom majkom i sa najdražim prijateljima pre nego što konačno, u svom alfa-romeu, ne ode u noć u potrazi za avanturama u Večnom gradu. U zoru, Pazolinija nalaze mrtvog na plaži u Ostiji na rubu grada. U filmu, mešavini stvarnosti i mašte, Abel Ferara rekonstruiše poslednji dan u životu ovog velikog pesnika u saradnji sa Vilemom Defoom kao Pazolinijem.

One day, one life. On the night of 2 November 1975, the great Italian writer and filmmaker Pier Paolo Pasolini is murdered in Rome. Pasolini is the symbol of an art that's fighting relentlessly against power. His writings are scandalous, his films are persecuted by the censors, many people love him and many hate him. On the day of his death, Pasolini spends his last hours with his mother and later on, with his friends, before finally going out into the night in his Alfa Romeo in search of adventure in the Eternal City. At dawn, Pasolini is found dead on a beach in Ostia on the outskirts of the city. In a film dreamlike and visionary, a blend of reality and imagination, Abel Ferrara reconstructs the last day in the life of this great poet with frequent collaborator Willem Dafoe as Pier Paolo Pasolini.

SINOPSIS

SYNOPSIS

Skok je dokumentarni film o jednom od najfascinantnijih događaja iz ere “hladnog rata”. Tog 23. novembra 1970. godine Američka obalska straža je sasvim slučajno susrela sovjetski ribarski brodić. Dok su predstavnici dve strane vodili uobičajene razgovore desilo se nešto nezamislivo: sovjetski mornar, litvanskog porekla, zadužen za radio vezu, skočio je 10 stopa preko zaleđene vode, pravo na palubu američkog broda gde je zatražio politički azil. I to je bio početak neverovatnog putovanja Simasa Kudirke čiju priču prati ovaj dokumentarni film. Veliki incident se završio tada tako, da je Simas, na kraju osuđen pri povratku u SSSR i proteran u Gulag, zbog prekršaja koji je napravio. Ali priča se tu ne završava, zapravo, tek počinje i prati ovog neponovljivog čoveka na njegovom putu da napusti SSSR.

In the Cold War years of the 1970s, an American patrol boat meets a Soviet ship off the East coast of the United States for talks about fishing rights in the Atlantic. In the midst of this, while Soviet commanders are aboard the US Coast Guard vessel where the talks are being held, a Lithuanian sailor jumps across the ten feet of icy water separating the boats. Crash-landing on the deck of the American ship, he desperately begs for asylum. But this was only the beginning of the story. Through rare archival footage and a dramatic first-person re-enactment of that fateful day by Simas Kudirka, the wouldbe defector himself, this tale of one of the biggest Cold War muddles takes us on a stranger-than-fiction journey of imprisonment, uncanny twists of fate, and the emotional sacrifices of becoming a universal symbol of freedom.

SYNOPSIS

U ribarskom selu Makoko, najvećem sirotinjskom kraju na vodi u Nigeriji, gospođa F. želi da ujedini žene i izvede predstavu pod nazivom Čuj reč; projekat zasnovan na istinitim pričama žena o rodnoj neravnopravnosti, sa ciljem da se izvuku iz potlačenog položaja i podstakne ih da se povežu. Ali za početak, gospođa F. mora da savlada neposlušne čuvare patrijarhata i religije.

In the fishing village of Makoko, the largest slum on water in Nigeria, Mrs F. wants to unite women and perform the play called Hear Word; a women empowerment project about gender inequality based on true stories to get women out of their oppressed position, to convince them to speak up and encourage them to connect. But even before she can start, she must overcome the unruly gatekeepers of patriarchy and religion.

O REDITELJU Kris je deset godina radio u fondaciji PharmAcces u Africi pre nego što je počeo da snima filmove.

Filmom Gospođa F. želi da potakne na razmišljanje o potencijalu za postizanje promena kroz razvoj i da doprinese preokretu pogrešne percepcije koja postoji o Africi uopšte i Nigeriji posebno; da pokaže snagu i potencijal svojih ljudi.

DIRECTOR'S BIOGRAPHY Chris worked for ten years at PharmAcces Foundation in Africa before starting to make films.

With the film MRS F he wants to provoke thought about the potential to achieve change through development and contribute to reversing the misguided perception that exists about Africa in general and Nigeria in particular; to show the strength and potential of its people.

SINOPSIS

SYNOPSIS

Tri glumice, tri dečije sobe, 10 dana i 2458 seksualnih predatora. Eksperiment koji stavlja u prvi plan tabu temu zlostavljanja dece na Internetu. Tri punoletne glumice sa vrlo mladim izgledom imaju zadatak da se pretvaraju da imaju 12 godina na lažnim profilima na društvenim mrežama. U vernim prikazima dečijih soba stvorenih u filmskom studiju ćaskaju i skajpuju sa muškarcima svih starosnih grupa koji su ih tražili i kontaktirali na mreži. Dokumentarni film donosi dramu protagonista koji glume „12-godišnje devojčice“, od kastinga do susreta licem u lice sa predatorima (sa obezbeđenjem i šest skrivenih kamera). Predatorske taktike se postepeno okreću protiv počinilaca i lovci postaju plen.

Three actresses, three children’s rooms, 10 days and 2,458 sexual predators. An experiment that shines an urgent light on the taboo subject of the abuse of children on the internet. Three over-18 actresses with very young appearances are tasked with pretending they are 12 on fake social network profiles. In faithful copies of children’s rooms created in a film studio they chat and Skype with men of all ages who have searched for and contacted them online. The documentary delivers the gripping drama of the protagonists playing “12-year-old girls” from casting to face to face meetings with predators (watched by security and six hidden cameras). Predatory tactics are gradually turned against perpetrators and hunters become the hunted.

SYNOPSIS

Sandra Jurak radila je u sportskoj redakciji i bila lična asistentkinja poznatoj osobi s estrade. Spletom okolnosti ostaje bez oba posla i mora se "vratiti kući" mami, u mali stan, u kraj iz kog je otišla pre 30 godina. Računi se moraju plaćati, pa tako Sandri ni jedan posao nije stran: čisti stanove, brine o zgradi, neguje staricu Šaćiru. Ipak, Sandrina najveća želja je da zarađuje za život kao pevačica. Iako s 50 godina i 20 kila viška „slava“ izgleda kao nemoguća misija, Sandra se prijavljuje na televizijski šou nadajući se proboju.

Sandra Jurak was a secretary in the sports section and a personal assistant to a well-known celebrity. In a remarkable chain of coincidences, she is left without both jobs and needs to go back home to her mother's tiny flat, to the old neighbourhood she'd left 30 years ago. In order to pay the bills, Sandra accepts different jobs: she cleans apartments, sells insurance, maintains the building and nurses an old lady Šaćira. But Sandra's biggest wish has been to earn a living as a singer. Now she is 50 years old and 20 kilos overweight. Although “fame” seems like an impossible mission, Sandra sends an application for one TV music competition and hopes for a breakthrough.
