Zagreb Film Festival to take place on 6-12 November

Author:

ZAGREB, 22 Oct (Hina) - The 21st edition of the Zagreb Film Festival (ZFF), Croatia's largest international feature film festival, will take place from 6 to 12 November, with a rich and varied programme including 115 films, a press conference was told earlier this week.

The films will be screened at several venues, including CineStar Branimir, SC Cinema, Kinoteka, Dokukino KIC, the Museum of Contemporary Art, as well as online at kinoeuropa.hr and croatian.film, ZFF director Boris T. Matić said.

"The Together Again and The Great 5 programs feature a number of film titles from established authors that will certainly leave a mark on the coming film season, and our audience will be among the first to see them," Matić said.

There are eight films in the International Feature Film Competition, and the festival will open with Jasna Nanut's feature film debut, the comedy "Seventh Heaven", developed at the ZFF workshop My First Script.

There is also the Spanish drama "20,000 Species of Bees" by Estibaliz Urresola Solaguren, starring 9-year-old Sofía Otero, the youngest winner of the Silver Bear Award in the history of the Berlin Film Festival, while Mexican director Christopher Zalla's "Radical" arrives with this year's Sundance Audience Award.

The coming-of-age theme is covered by "Excursion" by Bosnian director Una Gunjak and "How to Have Sex" by British director Molly Manning Walker, while "Lost Country" by Vladimir Perišić follows a young man who must confront his mother, a spokeswoman for a corrupt Serbian government.

Canadian-Korean director Celine Song's romantic drama "Past Lives" is a subtle and nuanced elaboration of the Korean concept of in-yun (fateful connections), while Icelandic director Ninne Pálmadóttir's film "Alone in Reykjavik" is based on Rúnar Rúnarsson's screenplay.

The out-of-competition program includes two award-winning regional films - the historical thriller "Guardians of the Formula" by Serbia's Dragan Bjelogrlić and "Housekeeping for Beginners" by Macedonian-Australian director Goran Stolevski.

Zvonimir Berković's short film "My Flat", which received a Special Jury Prize at the 1963 Cannes Film Festival, will be shown to mark 70 years of Zagreb Film.
