As part of the Competition Programme – Feature Film of the 30th Sarajevo Film Festival, the European premiere of the film FAMILY THERAPY by Sonja Prosenc was screened at the National Theater in Sarajevo. The film had its world premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival.
FAMILY THERAPY revolves around a nouveau riche Slovenian family who live in a glass house, exuding an air of detached superiority. This serves as a satirical backdrop for a humorous re-imagining of the premise of Pier Paolo Pasolini’s TEOREMA: a young stranger arrives in the family household, disrupting the delicate balance of family dynamics and revealing a world of chaos and dysfunctional relationships hidden beneath the surface. Through this family’s story, the film explores contemporary social issues in the tone of tragicomedy.
