Platform for the promotion of Croatian film
Mislim da je više stvar toga da ja još uvijek nemam dovoljno izraženu potrebu da se bavim dugim metrom, pa je kratki onda forma u kojoj se pronalazim. Nisam sigurna hoće li to uvijek biti tako, ali za sada me zadovoljava. Što se tiče filmskog roda, dogodi se spontano i učini mi se najboljim mogućim rješenjem za temu kojom se okupiram. Znatiželjna sam pa se možda i tu krije neka motivacija zbog koje volim isprobavati različite forme i svaštariti.
Learn moreI see awards as a byproduct of immense work, not just mine, but of everyone involved in the film.
Dramaturgy in short film, directorial approach, the themes you can explore through short films – this form is truly much more than just a stepping stone to feature films.
Short film teaches us that less is more; it teaches us the true meaning of the words redundant and concise in the context of film time; it also teaches us that basically all we need is one motive to create and develop a story.
But what I find fantastic is how much this award has sparked conversations about my film and Croatian cinema in general.
A format where you can play as much as you want, explore, and try out new ideas.
For me, art is the way I speak in society, a tool I use to express myself.
The short form is extremely demanding, and it’s not easy to create a well-rounded whole in a very limited time.
