Croatia and Serbia are two different versions of the same accident

I've heard that Disney is awfully close to making an entire feature film without human touch. Screenwriters tried to defend themselves, they were on strike for a long time. The rule they managed to get is that artificial intelligence can write a script, but then it has to go to a living screenwriter who has the right to refine it and sign himself. I'm afraid that there will be a huge manipulation, because they will find kids who will sign it

Are the successes of our films also the successes of the Film Center of Serbia?

The premiere of the film "On the Wheels of Forgotten Dreams" at the Shanghai Festival, and the participation of seven films at the Pula Festival, are great successes of the domestic film. The question is whether the Film Center of Serbia rightly appropriates them

Motaz Malhis: Something Fragile has reached people across languages and geographies

"I don't think that a film can ever be or stay out of politics, because every image already carries a certain point of view. What matters is whether the film is aware of it or hides behind the idea of neutrality, which often only reinforces the existing power structures," says Motaz Malhis, the protagonist of the film "Voice of Hind Rajab".

Black humor, brutality and a grain of hope

Karmadona, written and directed by Aleksandar Radivojević, is imperfect, but authorially consistent. It's a film that not everyone will want to see – but those who go along with it will get an intense, disturbing and occasionally fascinating experience.

Three colors they seem like the work of someone who has studied psychology all his life. "Blue" can be used in lessons about grieving and recovery from loss, with suicide attempts, loss of boundaries and their re-establishment, escape from people and the discovery of love, while "White" is an excellent representation of men's fear of impotence and all defenses against it, and "Red" is a portrait of kindness, solidarity and self-sacrifice
