Rada Šešić, programmer of the Competition Programme – Documentary Film has selected 20 titles. The selection features nine world premieres, one international, seven regional premieres and three B&H premieres.
“This year I was delighted by the authors who managed to transpose individual reminiscence, personal records and memories into the collective one and thus raise the meaning of individual, empirical and experiential to the level of the universal. The authors thus skillfully manage to draw us into very complex life situations, touch on the complexity of the concepts of religion and love, problematise the drama of relationships within the family, as well as philosophical reflections on the meaning of life, the concept of evil and crime, hatred and the search for justice. Films are in many ways inspiring to viewers and even when they present very traumatic truths, they carry within them the energy of positivity. What is important for me as a programmer is to feel the author’s signature in every film, that we as viewers understand the viewpoint of the director and not just observe the life stories of the selected heroes of the film”, saids Rada Šešić about this years selection.
Here is the list of the documentaries.
