SARAJEVO FILM FESTIVAL LINE-UP REVEALED


An impressive line-up of films for this year's Sarajevo Film Festival, which will include a total of fifty films, among which there will be fifteen world premieres. I won't post the whole list here, but you can take a look at Screen Daily for all the details. Here are some of the potential highlights:

Feature Film Competition
  • Carmen (Doru Nitescu) - Romania
  • In Bloom (Nana Ekvtimishvili and Simon Gross) - Georgia
  • Runaway Day (Dimitris Bavellas) - Greece
  • Soldate Jeannette (Daniel Hoesl) - Austria
  • A Stranger (Bobo Jelcic) - Bosnia and Herzegovina / Croatia
  • Talea (Katharina Muckstein) - Austria
  • When Evening Falls on Bucharest or Metabolism (Corneliu Porumboiu) - Romania
  • With Mum (Faruk Loncarevic) - Bosnia and Herzegovina / Germany
  • Wolf (Bogdan Mustata) - Romania
Among the films screening in the In Focus Programme are Ulrich Seidl's Paradise trilogy. I thought Paradise: Love was very good when I saw it several months back, and in a few weeks I'll be catching parts two and three, Paradise: Faith and Paradise: Hope.
