National Film and Television Festival NAFFIT ends today, September 6, a prizes were distributed the day before.
Regardless of the unwritten rule and tradition of all festivals in the world, the organizers of NAFFIT decided to end it with a Gala evening program dedicated to the winner of the Lifetime Achievement Award, i.e. Radoslav Vladić, a prominent cinematographer and director of photography, for a reason known only to them.
Unknown facts about the festival
In fact, nothing is known about the NAFFIT program: neither who is its creator, nor why the films and series were shown in the pre-festival program, nor who selected them, nor who decided on the awards.
It is only known that it was organized with the support of the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Serbia (last month - 17 million, and he does not know how much before that), the Film Center of Serbia and the Zlatibor Cultural Center, that the partner of the manifestation is the Russian Federation, and that its guests are guests from China and - Nastasja Kinski, a famous German and international actress.
Nastasja Kinski came to Zlatibor to receive the Award for Contribution to World Cinema. The award was presented to her by the Minister of Culture, Nikola Selaković, and he used the opportunity to inform the audience that she is a "world-class" actress and that during her career she collaborated with numerous important authors, so he mentioned the names of the most important ones.
Kinski, thanking her for the recognition, told the audience to "stay golden", full of hope and love for each other and reminded that several years ago the director Predrag Gaga Antonijević chose her for a role in the film Savior, which was also shown at this year's festival.
The best are "Harvest" and "Fortress"
The best film of the festival is Harvest, while Fortress best TV series, plus it won seven other awards.
Daria Vučko was declared the best actress for the role of Daria, while Ognjen Mićović received the award for the best male role, for the character of Luka in the series Fortress, the director Saša Hajduković and screenwriters Goran Starčević and Mirko Stojković were also awarded for the same series.
Danica Ristovski received a special acting award for the supporting female role of Mati in the series Zvaćeš se Varvara.
"Harvest" national project
Film Harvest premiered this March. It was directed by Paul Kampf, he also wrote the screenplay based on the novel Serbian heart of Johan Veselin Dželetović, and the main role is played by Matthew McNulty. After the heart transplant, the main character experiences disturbing dreams and visions, which lead him to Kosovo, to the Yellow House. The film is a national project.
Produced by TS Media (Telekom), Film Center of Serbia, Bandur Film and Delius. 
The first sentence of Đorđe Bajić film critic "Vremena" Fr Harvestand, reads: "In short – Harvest (2026) is a film that we could do without and on which money was spent that could have been found for a better purpose."
"Fortress" about Knin
TV series producers Fortress are RTS, Miloš Avramović and the house "Režim", and the series follows two young people, a Serb and a Croat from Knin, at the time of the breakup of the SFRY and the formation of the Republic of Srpska Krajina.
Dragan Ilić, the author of TV criticism in "Vremen" praised it very much The fortress.
"The best part of the series is precisely the story about the family because everything is hyperrealistically precise, like in family photos from Krajina. The acting of Ognjen Mićović and Daria Vučko (Serb and Croatian, Romeo and Juliet) is bravura and sincere, and perhaps even more so by Jovo Maksić, Nikolina Friganović (father and mother), Nikola Pejaković (uncle) and the demonic security guard, Ljubomir Bandović."
But he also wrote this: "While the tragedy of the family is striking and authentic, painfully realistic, the political, military and security part of the facts is romanticized and stylized. We know very well that Martić, Babić, Hadžić, but also Frenki, Jovica, Captain Dragan, Arkan, Legija, Šešelj, were ruling the Krajina, while Milosevic sent directives from Belgrade."
The public assumption that one of the two TV series of Predrag Gaga Antonijević will be awarded did not come true.
