Special screenings at ZFF |
The films on special screenings deal with hot war topics from Osijek, the status of asylum seekers in Croatia and sex in New York after 11/9.
Today in the Vip cinema &td begins the program of Special Screenings. At 11pm there will be shown two documentaries, each in its way dealing with human rights and unfortunate destinies. ‘Dossier Osijek’ written by Davor Konjikušić and directed by Goran Kovačić tells a story of destinies of civilians in Osijek, who survived war liquidations. ‘Croatia E(N)Den on Earth’ directed by Oliver Sertić answers the question why Croatian institutions are not willing to deal with social integration of current and potential asylum seekers in Croatia.
Young Croatian authors are preoccupied by post war situation, and American ones with the situation after the terrorist attacks of 11/9. ‘Shortbus’ by John Cameron Mitchell examines the life of several emotionally unstable characters: their comic and tragic moments of love and sex related to a modern New York underground salon. The film is shown at ZFF in association with Queer Zagreb. |
