Travel and memories: About making a documentary film Side by side

What have the British ever done for us

For many in Serbia, the answer may not be obvious. In recent decades, the public mostly remembered political conflicts and disagreements, while the stories of joint struggle, friendship and mutual aid remained in the shadows. These stories are the reason for the creation of the documentary film Side by side

People who talk to the mountain

"Gara became Prometheus in the battle with the forces, and she recognized this when she said that she was happy that her story evokes the stories of many women throughout the ages. It was especially important to me that from the culture of heroes and warriors that I come from, we are bringing a story about women, who as a rule are forgotten by history."

Exchange of pain and tenderness

Filming was like a vicious circle, you write a script inspired by reality, and then, trying to reconstruct it, it spills over into some new reality that is happening for the first time. One initiates another and gives birth to a new, unrepeatable moment

The fiasco of the Melania Trump documentary

Despite the pompous announcement and aggressive advertising, the documentary film about Melania Trump met with harsh criticism and, what is worse, does not promise any profit

Long journey home

"Women who belonged to the first generations of Australian doctors, women-writers, women who were the bearers of emancipatory and transformative tendencies in Australian society, arrived at the Thessaloniki front. This story has never been told until now"

"Time of Terror 2": New "documentary" directed by the state

On Thursday (August 21), TV Informer aired a "documentary", or rather its second part, "Time of Terror 2". In a new "documentary" produced by the Center for Social Stability, events from Serbia are connected to events from Odessa in 2014 in a way that can only be explained by pro-regime media

Slavka, the goal machine

Slavka's statement that men are physically stronger... At least Slavka never had a problem with that - she knew how to make fun of the guys who threw at her, if I may reveal family stories. In that sentence, Slavka refers primarily to the conditions in sports - she actively advocated that women's football be professionalized on the model of men's football

The invention of family and identity

In her daughter's film, Jane Mansfield gets the chance for the first time to be seen as a real woman of flesh and blood, with all the virtues and flaws, and not a mere projection of men's sexual fantasies about an insatiable busty blonde. On the other hand, Ashley April and Amanda Lear bring their multiple identities to the stage, embracing and rejecting them. Actually, playing with them

A documentary to watch

Fascists took from D'Annunzio the ideas of action and action - violent and quick action. Democracy brings with it a certain slowness, and D'Annunzio wanted everything immediately and now - which certainly reminds some of today's phenomena

Breathing for your own account

Three exceptional achievements by domestic authors required not only artistic but also existential courage (if it is even possible to distinguish between them). Želimir Žilnik does not give up, Stefan Malešević still loves his heroes, Maja Novaković boldly plunges into the realms of silence
