Film vrijedi gledati zajedno U vremenu u kojem film možemo pogledati gotovo bilo gdje, iskustvo filmskog festivala postaje vrjednije nego ikada – ne zato što filmove čini dostupnima, nego zato što omogućava zajedničko gledanje, razgovor i razmjenu različitih pogleda na svijet. Ne dolazimo na Festival zato što mislimo isto. Dolazimo zato što vjerujemo da film vrijedi gledati zajedno. Upravo iz tog zajedničkog iskustva nastaje ono što nijedna digitalna platforma ne može ponuditi, a to je susret uživo autora i publike, susret različitih kultura, generacija i iskustava. Ovog augusta Sarajevo će ponovo postati mjesto tog susreta. U gradu će se okupiti autori, glumci, producenti, distributeri, festivalski programeri, studenti filma, dok će više od 250 filmova i preko 150.000 ulazaka publike iz cijelog svijeta ispuniti kina i druge festivalske prostore, a istovremeno će na CineLink Danima filmske industrije nastajati partnerstva i razvijati se filmovi koje ćemo tek gledati narednih godina. Ovogodišnje izdanje otvaramo filmom OČEVINA Paweła Pawlikowskog, jednog od najznačajnijih filmskih autora našeg vremena. Film koji govori o identitetu, pripadanju i Evropi danas snažan je uvod u teme koje će obilježiti ovogodišnji Festival. Program ne nastaje slučajno. Dan prije otvaranja, u Ljetnom kinu Coca-Cola, prikazat ćemo potpuno restauriranu verziju ŽENE S KRAJOLIKOM Ivice Matića iz 1976. godine, jednog od najvažnijih ostvarenja bosanskohercegovačke kinematografije. Festival ćemo zatvoriti digitalno restauriranom NIČIJOM ZEMLJOM Danisa Tanovića, dvadeset i pet godina nakon što je osvojila Oscara. Između ta tri filma postoji zajednička nit. Ona nas podsjeća da veliki filmovi ne pripadaju samo vremenu u kojem su nastali, nego svakom novom susretu s publikom. Ta ideja nastavlja se kroz cijeli ovogodišnji program. U takmičarskim selekcijama predstavljamo 51 novi film iz Jugoistočne Evrope, među njima čak 21 svjetsku premijeru. Za mnoge od tih autora upravo će Sarajevo biti mjesto prvog susreta s međunarodnom publikom. Danas je Sarajevo Film Festival mjesto na kojem regionalna kinematografija najčešće započinje svoj međunarodni festivalski život. To nije rezultat jednog izdanja, nego više od tri decenije povjerenja autora koji svoje filmove donose upravo ovdje. Program Open Air Premijere, koji smo prošle godine pokrenuli kako bismo filmovima iz naše uže regije pružili još snažniji susret s publikom, ove godine dobija i svoju posebnu nagradu nazvanu Prix Cineplexx, koju bira upravo publika. Nadamo se

Dobrodošli na 32. Sarajevo Film Festival

Welcome to the 32nd Sarajevo Film Festival da će ona s vremenom postati priznanje koje će pratiti daljnji život ovih filmova i nakon njihovih festivalskih premijera. Iako su takmičarski programi prirodno u središtu pažnje, Sarajevo Film Festival oduvijek je bio mnogo više od takmičenja. Svaki od naših programa nudi drugačiji pogled na savremenu kinematografiju, od regionalnih ostvarenja u programima U FOKUSU i BH Film, preko najznačajnijih evropskih i svjetskih filmova u programima Open Air, Kinoscope, Summer Screen i programu Evropskog kratkog filma, do Posebnih projekcija, koje ove godine prvi put uključuju i Ponoćne projekcije. Posebno mjesto imaju Dječiji program i TeenArena, kao i programi posvećeni ljudskim pravima, suočavanju s prošlošću te međunarodnim partnerstvima, među kojima posebno mjesto zauzima saradnja s Doha Film Institutom. Festival je i prostor u kojem razgovaramo o filmskoj umjetnosti, njenoj budućnosti i njenom nasljeđu. U programu Posvećeno ove godine odajemo priznanje Asgharu Farhadiju, jednom od najznačajnijih filmskih autora današnjice. Istovremeno, pokrećemo novi trogodišnji program “Bela u Sarajevu”, posvećen nasljeđu Béle Tarra kroz filmove njegovih nekadašnjih studenata na Film Factoryju u Sarajevu. Umjesto retrospektive njegovih filmova, željeli smo govoriti o njegovom nasljeđu kroz autore koji su iz Sarajeva nastavili graditi svoje međunarodne karijere. Čini nam se da nema ljepšeg načina da se govori o jednom učitelju nego kroz djela njegovih studenata. Posebnu čast predstavlja što će Počasno Srce Sarajeva ove godine primiti Emily Watson, Diego Luna, Asghar Farhadi, Woody Harrelson i Emir Hadžihafizbegović. Svako od njih ostavio je jedinstven trag u svjetskoj ili regionalnoj kinematografiji. Među ovogodišnjim laureatima imamo i umjetnika koji je svojim radom posebno obilježio bosanskohercegovačku kinematografiju. Međunarodni ugled ima smisla samo ako ne zaboravimo umjetnike iz sredine iz koje je Festival nastao. Naravno, Festival ne čine samo oni čija imena staju u uvodnik. On postoji zahvaljujući autorima koji nam povjeravaju svoje filmove, članovima žirija, partnerima, sponzorima, institucijama, našem timu i stotinama volontera koji ga svake godine zajedno grade – prije svega, zahvaljujući publici. Hvala vam što nam već trideset i dvije godine poklanjate svoje vrijeme, svoju znatiželju i svoje povjerenje. Dobro došli na 32. Sarajevo Film Festival.

Jovan Marjanović, SARAJEVO FILM FESTIVAL / 14-21/08/2026 / www.sff.ba 5

direktor Sarajevo Film Festivala

Watching Films with Others Is a Valuable Experience At a time when one can watch films almost anywhere, festivalgoing becomes more valuable than ever. Beyond the fact that festivals make films available to us, they let us watch films together and cthey reate space for discussion and the exchange of different viewpoints. We do not attend festivals simply because we share a mindset with the other attendees; we attend them because we believe watching films together with other people is a valuable experience. It is this shared experience that offers what no digital platform can: a meeting place that provides the chance for filmmakers and audiences to meet in person, the chance for the crossing of paths of diverse cultures, and of people of different generations and different life experiences. This August, Sarajevo once again becomes such a meeting place. Filmmakers, actors, producers, distributors, festival programmers, and film students will gather in our city, where we will screen more than 250 films and where more than 150,000 visitors from around the world will fill cinemas and festival venues, while in parallel new creative partnerships are forged and future films developed withing CineLink Industry Days. The forthcoming edition of the Sarajevo Film Festival opens with a screening of FATHERLAND by Paweł Pawlikovski, one of today’s most distinguished filmmakers. The film explores issues of identity, belonging, and contemporary Europe, and is a powerful introduction into the themes that distinguish this year’s event. The evening before the official opening of the festival, we present a screening in the Coca-Cola Open Air Cinema of a fully restored copy of Ivica Matić’s1976 film LANDSCAPE WITH A WOMAN, one of the most notable films ever produced in Bosnia and Herzegovina. A digital restoration of Danis Tanović’s NO MAN’S LAND closes the festival, a quarter of a century after it won the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film. A thread connects these three films, one that reminds us that great films do not belong only to the time when they are created but are reborn in every new meeting with audiences. This idea permeates the entirety of this year’s festival programme. Its competition sections feature fifty-one recently produced films from Southeast Europe, among which twentyone have their world premieres in Sarajevo. Many of the filmmakers behind the films in the competition will have their first encounters with audiences in Sarajevo. Our city has become a place where films produced in our region make their first stop before embarking on the international festival circuit. This is the cumulative result of more than three decades of building trust with the directors who bring their films to our festival. The Open Air Premieres programme, which we launched last year so filmmakers from our immediate neighbourhood can bond even more strongly with audiences, will now have a dedicated award, the Prix Cineplexx. It is an award presented

6 SARAJEVO FILM FESTIVAL / 14-21/08/2026 / www.sff.ba

to a film selected by the audience, and we hope that in time it will become a recognition that will distinguish the winning films long after their festival premieres. While competition programmes are understandably a focus of significant attention, the Sarajevo Film Festival has always been more than just a competition. Each of its programmes offers a different view of contemporary film production, from the In Focus and BH Film programmes, which showcase regional films, through the Open Air, Kinoscope, Summer Screen, and European Short programmes, in which significant recent European and global films are presented, to the Special Screenings programme, which, for the first time this year, also includes a Midnight Screenings section. A special place in the festival is reserved for young people in the Children’s Programme and TeenArena, and we continue to offer film selections dedicated to supporting human rights initiatives, healing the wounds of conflict in our Dealing with the Past programme, and international partnerships, most notably our longstanding collaboration with the Doha Film Institute. Film festivals are where we talk about the art of cinema today, its heritage, and its future. In this year’s Tribute to programme, we honour Asghar Farhadi, one of the most important filmmakers of our time. We also launch a new three-year programme to celebrate the legacy of Béla Tarr and the students of his experimental Sarajevo-based film.factory. Rather than organising a retrospective of Tarr’s own films, we focus on his legacy by presenting films by the young filmmakers who were mentored by the master and went on to build their international careers after their time at the film.factory. We believe that there is no better way to celebrate a teacher than by celebrating the work of their students. It is a special privilege to present the Honorary Heart of Sarajevo Award to Emily Watson, Diego Luna, Asghar Farhadi, Woody Harrelson and Emir Hadžihafizbegović, each of whom has left a special mark on international and regional cinema. We are especially proud that this year’s laureates include an artist whose work has left a special mark on Bosnian film. Celebrating artists from the birthplace of the festival is an important foundation for building international respect. Of course, the Sarajevo Film Festival is made up of far more than just the names that are mentioned in the introduction. The festival exists because of the many filmmakers who trust us with their films, the members of our juries, our partners and sponsors, the institutions that support us, our team, and the hundreds of volunteers who, year after year, help us put the festival together. And, more than anything, this festival exists because of our audience. Thank you for sharing your time, your trust, and your curiosity with us for thirty-two years. Welcome to the 32nd edition of the Sarajevo Film Festival. Jovan Marjanović Sarajevo Film Festival Director

Jedanaestogodišnja Adela i njena starija sestra Zara osjećaju duboku bliskost dok se zajednički probijaju kroz dva kontradiktorna svijeta. Dok borave u školi, njih dvije su tipične, buntovne tinejdžerke sa skejtovima, profilima na društvenim mrežama, kratkim majicama i momcima. Nakon škole, u mirnoj i radnoj atmosferi, pomažu majci u čišćenju tuđih kuća kako bi prehranile porodicu.

Beskompromisna filmska meditacija o tuzi, preživljavanju i tvrdoglavo dostojanstvenim međuljudskim odnosima. Film DOBRI LJUDI, sa strogom uzdržanošću, bilježi posljedice požara u noćnom klubu u Sjevernoj Makedoniji u kojem su izgubljena šezdeset tri mlada života. Prikazuje preživjele i tihe heroje ne kao simbole, već kao ljude od krvi i mesa koji pate, trpe i potpuno su stvarni. Pokušaj suočavanja s katastrofom gotovo neprimjetno pretvara se u studiju ljudske izdržljivosti, spomenik krhkoj, ali upornoj moći nade. An unflinching meditation on grief, survival, and the stubborn grace of human connection, GOOD PEOPLE traces with austere restraint the aftermath of a nightclub fire in North Macedonia that claimed sixty-three young lives, rendering its survivors and quiet heroes not as symbols but as people – aching, enduring, and profoundly real. What begins as a reckoning with catastrophe becomes, almost imperceptibly, a study in resilience, a testament to the fragile but persistent power of hope.

In an attempt to uncover the story of Džekson’s life and legacy, Jurišić embarks on making a Western with the local community. She meets his former collaborators, family members, and local residents, piecing together memories of Džekson’s town before the war and getting to know its inhabitants today. The resulting documentary becomes an exploration of the impact of war on Džekson, Jurišić herself, and the town. It also asks whether the spirit of Hari Džekson still exists today.

In a world overflowing with soap operas, one Serbian family shows that reality is wilder, darker, and far more gripping than fiction. After a gutwrenching breakup, Serbian-Australian actorturned-filmmaker Bojana Novaković leaves the dazzling world of Hollywood and heads to rural Serbia, hoping to reconnect with her eccentric, estranged Aunt Gordana for some much-needed peace.

Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, 2026, 75 min. Režija / Director: Damir Markovina

Roko Markovina, socijalistički zastupnik u Parlamentu Bosne i Hercegovine od 1990. do 1996. godine, nakon izbijanja rata odlučuje ostati u Mostaru sa svojom obitelji, vjerujući da je to njegova moralna dužnost, unatoč tome što je grad razdirao etnički sukob. Rokova antinacionalistička uvjerenja navela su ga da glasa protiv Daytonskog sporazuma – odluka koja ga je pretvorila u simboličnu figuru bosanskohercegovačke ljevice, ali i u izopćenika u očima nacionalista. Platio je cijenu svog moralnog integriteta: izgubio je zemlju, stranku, grad i dom. Trideset godina poslije živi u dobrovoljnom progonstvu na otoku sa

suprugom, dok njegove odluke i dalje opterećuju odnos sa sinovima. Kroz njihove susrete film istražuje nasljeđe rata, obiteljske podjele i pitanje šta je potrebno da bi se krenulo dalje. At the outbreak of war in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Roko Markovina – a socialist who served as a member of the country’s parliament between 1990 and 1996 – decided to stay in Mostar, his hometown, with his family, convinced it was his moral duty despite the ethnic conflict ravaging the town. Roko’s antinationalist convictions inspired him to vote against the Dayton Peace Agreement – an act that made him a symbol of Bosnia and Herzegovina’s leftists, but also a target of the nationalists’ scorn. He paid a high price to preserve his moral integrity, losing his nation, political party, city, and home. Three decades later, Markovina and his wife live in voluntary exile on a Mediterranean island, but his decisions still strain his relationship with his sons. Through their meetings, WE SHALL LIVE TOGETHER explores the legacy of war and family division, as well as what is required to be able to move on with life.

Ukrainian filmmaker Helena Maksyom lays down her camera only to pick up a rifle — and then takes up both. Across a thousand days at war, she films the moral unravelling of ordinary people forced to kill, and the fragile fight to keep a soul intact when violence becomes a part of daily life.

U malom patrijarhalnom selu Halima i njezina prijateljica Gönül okupljaju žene oko neobične inicijative: organiziraju isključivo ženski turnir u streljaštvu. Ova inicijativa suprotstavlja se duboko ukorijenjenim društvenim normama, a naizgled jednostavna ideja otvara prostor za uspostavljanje novih veza, hrabrost i kolektivni nastup. In a small patriarchal village, Halime and her friend Gönül bring women together through an unexpected initiative — organizing a women-only shooting competition that quietly challenges longstanding norms.

Politička arena u Moldaviji više nije rezervisana isključivo za muškarce – barem ne u Eleninom selu. Ova četrdesetdvogodišnjakinja, nakon što je pokrenula hrabru kampanju za lokalne izbore, postala je neugodan podsjetnik da se vremena mijenjaju. Njena izborna utrka više je od političke kampanje; priča o njenoj kandidaturi priča je o ženi koja se usudila ignorisati patrijarhalna ograničenja u trenutku kada se njena zemlja nalazi na historijskoj prekretnici i sve se više okreće Evropskoj uniji. Politics in Moldova is no longer just a man's game – at least, not in Elena’s village. By launching a bold bid for local office, the fortytwo-year-old woman becomes the uncomfortable face of change. Her decision to run is more than just a political campaign: it is the story of a woman daring to dismantle patriarchal boundaries while her entire nation stands on the threshold of historic transformation, edging closer to the European Union.

Kroz priču o Ramu, nepalskom dostavljaču hrane u Zagrebu, otkrivamo nehumane životne i radne uvjete s kojima se suočavaju radnici migranti, ne samo u Hrvatskoj, već i diljem regije i šire. While the success of the Croatian economy is highly dependent on immigrant workers, brutal attacks on people because of their race, religion, ethnicity, or the colour of their skin are still a regular occurrence in the country. By telling the story of Ram, a Nepalese delivery worker in Zagreb, BRO RAM lifts the curtain on inhumane living and working conditions faced by immigrant workers, not only in Croatia but also throughout the region and further afield.

Multimedijalna umjetnica Arijana Lekić Fridrih svake prve subote putuje u drugi grad i za vrijeme molitve izvodi feministički performans "Tiha misa". Molitelji na razne načine pokušavaju spriječiti njene performanse. On the first Saturday of every month, on the main squares of Croatian cities, hundreds of men kneel and pray together. In their prayers, they advocate for re-traditionalization,

Kroz ove susrete, oni se suočavaju i s vlastitom historijom koja je neraskidivo povezana s ovim kultnim automobilom. Four millennials, born in the 1990s in the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, set off on a road trip across the United States in a Yugo, an old Yugoslav car once labelled “the worst car in the history of the USA.” Traveling through twenty-four states from New York City to Los Angeles, they search for an answer to the question: What does it mean to be the worst? Along the way, they meet people who were involved in importing the Yugo in the 1980s, present-day Yugo enthusiasts, Americans, and immigrants from post-Yugoslav countries. They also come face to face with their own personal history and the ways it is inseparable from the Yugo.

temu kroz prizmu majčinstva. From childhood onward, rules are imposed on us, behaviours are dictated to us, and we are told “how to live,” but we are never prepared for the difficulty of “being.” This film explores this question through the lens of motherhood.

Početkom sedamnaestog stoljeća misteriozni vojnik stiže u izolovano protestantsko selo negdje u Njemačkoj. Sitan i po prirodi skroman, lica naružena ožiljkom, vojnik se sumnjičavim seljanima predstavlja kao nasljednik davno napuštenog seoskog imanja i posjeduje dokument koji to potvrđuje. Dokazujući se kao vrijedan, bogobojazan čovjek, vojnik postepeno zadobija povjerenje seljana i postaje dio lokalne zajednice. Međutim, sva njegova nastojanja da bude prihvaćen utemeljena su na velikoj laži. Somewhere in Germany in the early seventeenth century, a mysterious soldier

arrives in an isolated Protestant village. Slight and modest by nature, his face disfigured by a scar, this stranger declares himself to be the heir of a long-abandoned farmstead and produces a document to support his claim to the suspicious villagers. With the passage of time, he overcomes their doubts and, proving himself to be a hard-working, God-fearing man, becomes a part of their community. However, his quest for acceptance is built on a bold-faced lie.

In the scintillating, pop-infused world of a Japanese boarding school that trains teenage girls to become professional mermaids, seventeen-year-old Akame learns to hold her

Odbačeni zbog svojih stavova, prisiljeni su potražiti sklonište u Istanbulu kod Azizove majke. Balansiranje između iznenadnog siromaštva i političkih uvjerenja stavit će njihov brak na veliku kušnju. Aziz, a professor at Ankara University, receives a "yellow letter" arbitrarily informing him of his dismissal. When his wife Derya, a famous actor at the national theatre, receives one too, it is the final blow for the couple. Condemned for their ideas, they are forced to seek refuge in Istanbul with Aziz's mother. The compromise between this new precariousness and their political commitment will put their marriage to the test.

Film OČEVINA istražuje odnos između književnika i dobitnika Nobelove nagrade Thomasa Manna i njegove kćerke, glumice, spisateljice i vozačice relija Erike. U ljeto 1949. godine, na vrhuncu hladnog rata, otac i kćerka uputili su se na izazovno i emotivno putovanje kroz razorenu Njemačku. U crnom Buicku provezli su se od Frankfurta, koji je tada bio pod američkom dominacijom, do Weimara koji su kontrolisali Sovjeti.

Svojoj kćerki Emiliji nudi ulogu u svom novom filmu pod izgovorom da želi potaknuti razvoj njene dosad stagnirajuće glumačke karijere. Zajednički život na filmskom setu potaknut će bliskost koju godinama nisu osjećali, ali će također otvoriti stare, nikad zacijeljene rane. Acclaimed film director Esteban Martínez is a legend, for his films as well as for a past marked by violence and excess. For his new project, he offers his daughter Emilia a role under the pretext of helping with her stalled acting career.

Sve počinje kao obična školska ekskurzija. Autobus, razred, profesori, usputne šale, mala uzbuđenja i ona poznata privremena sloboda koju putovanje daje djeci. Ali polako osjećamo da u tom malom kolektivu nešto nije u redu. Ispod svakodnevnih pogleda, zadirkivanja i šutnje postoji nešto što niko ne želi da izgovori. Zoza nosi teret smrti najboljeg druga koji je počinio samoubistvo tri sedmice prije ove ekskurzije. Kada pred razredom progovori o njihovoj tišini i onome što su svi prešutjeli, o skretanju pogleda, ali i brutalnom maltretiranju drugara, pažnja se okreće ka njemu.

It all begins as a typical school trip. A bus, school friends, professors, casual jokes, small excitements, and the well-known temporary sense of freedom children get when traveling. But gradually we start to feel that all is not well in that small community. Daily glances, teasing, and silences hide something nobody wants to talk about. Zoza is burdened by the death of his best friend who committed suicide three week before the school trip. When he decides to talk about his school friends’ failure to speak up, their decision to turn their gaze away and about brutal mistreatment of his friend, all attention turns to him.

Two young men flee their dead-end lives on a road trip into the northern frontier. Recasting true crime as parable, Manhunt explores loneliness, masculinity, and the colonial urge to begin anew – until the search for meaning erupts into violence.

Krajem devedesetih godina prošlog stoljeća osmogodišnja Sasha s porodicom se seli u novi dom na ostrvu Vancouver, ali njihov novi početak remeti sve opasnije ponašanje njenog najstarijeg brata Jeremyja. Izluđeni, njeni

roditelji suočeni su s devastirajućim izborom. Igrani prvenac nagrađivane rediteljice Sophy Romvari lirična je i dubokoumna posveta onome što svi nosimo u sebi i vješta hronika magličaste prirode lijenoga ljeta i jasnoće trenutaka koji su ga obilježili. In the late 1990s, eight-year-old Sasha and her family relocate to a new home on Vancouver Island, but their fresh start is interrupted by the increasingly dangerous behaviour of the eldest son, Jeremy. At their wits' end, Sasha's parents are presented with a shattering choice. A lyrical and profound testament to the things we carry with us, masterfully chronicling the haze of a languid summer and the hyaline clarity of the moments that defined it.

U srcu botaničkog vrta u srednjovjekovnom univerzitetskom gradu u Njemačkoj raste veličanstveno drvo ginka. Više od stoljeća, drvo je tihi svjedok protoka vremena i promjena u životima troje ljudi. Godine 2020. neurolog iz Hong Konga, koji proučava mozak dojenčadi, započinje neobičan eksperiment sa starim drvetom. Godine 1972. jednostavan čin posmatranja i povezivanja s geranijumom iz temelja mijenja život mladog studenta. Godine 1908. prva žena primljena na ovaj univerzitet fotografijom otkriva sveti krvotok univerzuma skriven u najskromnijim biljkama. In the heart of a botanical garden in a medieval university town in Germany stands a majestic ginkgo tree. Over the course of a century, this silent witness has observed the quiet rhythms of transformation across three human lives. In 2020, a neuroscientist from Hong Kong who explores the infant mind begins an unexpected experiment with the old tree. In 1972, a young student is profoundly changed by the simple act of observing and connecting with a geranium. In 1908, the university’s first female student discovers, through the lens of photography, sacred patterns of the universe hidden within the humblest of plants.

Njihovo pretjerivanje moglo bi ih dovesti do izvora mudrosti, ali putovanje duž (mliječnog) puta ima svoju cijenu – i to ne samo onu izraženu u kriptovalutama. A coruscatingly wild foray into the “unconscious of the Internet” [sic]. Relentless visual stimulation and rapid-fire editing ricochet the viewer through a dizzying labyrinth of sensory impressions and p$ych€de£ic absurdities as we follow three bored millennials in their quest to discover the Or1g1n of lithium. Their road of excess may lead to the palace of wisdom but there are prices to be paid along the (milky) way ... and not just in cryptocurr€ncy.

Komentari u formi titlova – od bezbrižnog čavrljanja s prijateljima do prijetećih poruka neznanaca – začinjavaju narativni tok ove priče. Film PRVI pruža uvid u stvarnost današnjih tinejdžera, prisiljenih da se povezuju preko izgrađenih digitalnih karaktera i učestvuju u slučajnim digitalnim susretima te pokazuje kako ih sve to oblikuje. A teenager lives her life, toggling seamlessly between her physical and digital selves. She walks over a bridge at sunrise, follows a stranger through the streets of the city, and meets up with a friend to wander their favourite spots in New York City. She documents all of this on her phone, sharing her world by uploading to her profile. Comments, in the form of subtitles, puncture this narrative, ranging from casual banter with friends to threatening comments from strangers. FIRST is a glimpse into the realities teenagers have to negotiate today, how they connect through personas and engage in random digital encounters, and how that shapes them.

sound human and look natural instead become artificial. The scenery is provided through vintage photochrome postcards that display scenic North American landscapes and the rise of infrastructure and industry. Aspiring to look more realistic through the addition of colour to black-and-white images, the postcards are instead documents of the fantastic. The road trip is narrated by an automated correspondent (all dialogue is taken from spam emails), his entreaties becoming increasingly foreboding and obtuse in a relentless effort to capture our attention.

U ovom eksperimentalnom reportažnom filmu, pokušaji da se zvuči ljudski i izgleda prirodno završavaju izvještačeno. Vizuelni identitet filma oblikuju hromirane stare razglednice s prikazima sjevernoameričkih krajolika, izgradnje infrastrukture i industrijskog rasta. U pokušaju da djeluju realističnije, crno-bijelim razglednicama dodane su boje, te one postaju materijalni trag ljudske fantazije.

Navigacijske sprave, poznate kao navigatori, obično nam pomažu da se orijentiramo na nepoznatom terenu, da utabamo staze u nedođijama uz pomoć geometrijskih pomagala. Ali šta se dogodi kada se prostor počne stapati i preplitati s vlastitim prikazima, regijama i kartama? Björn Kämmerer u filmu NAVIGATOR kreira neku vrstu svjesne mašine koja provodi upravo takvo stapanje. Koncentrična metalna sprava u stanju je neprekidne rotacije, a prizori te rotacije iz različitih uglova posmatranja podvrgnuti su ritmičnoj montaži. (...)

territory, to establish paths in the middle of nowhere by means of geometric aids. But, what happens when space and its record, region and map, merge and begin to intertwine? In NAVIGATOR, Björn Kämmerer creates a kind of seeing machine that executes exactly such a convolution. A concentric metal device is in a state of perpetual rotation. A rhythmical montage involving various perspectives of this movement is to be seen. (…) Circuits turn within circuits, as if Marcel Duchamp’s Anemic Cinema has come back to life in a new sculptural skin. (Christian Höller)

O ovoj zavodljivoj opni / Of This Beguiling Membrane United Kingdom, 2020, 5 min. Režija / Director: Charlotte Pryce

Radnja filma odvija se na dugodnevnicu, dan kada su granice među svjetovima porozne i jedna slučajna gesta može izazvati sudbinu. Snimljen u stilu dokumentarca o prirodi, umjesto prirodoslovnih opservacija nudi iluzije, a ispod površine probijaju mutne vode zatrpane ostacima onih koji su pokleknuli pred njenim mamcima (Ofelija, Gospa od Šalota). Oni ostaju zarobljeni, zlokobni podsjetnici na opasno zavodljivu moć ljepote i bijes neuhvatljivih duhova koji s gnušanjem odbijaju da ih se analizira. The story unfolds on Midsummer's Eve: on the day when the threshold between worlds is porous, and an idle gesture can tempt fate. The work takes the outward form of a nature film, but observation gives way to illusion and the surface gives way to murky waters strewn with the debris of those who have succumbed to its lures (the Lady of Shalott, Ophelia). They remain trapped; menacing reminders of the dangerous seduction of beauty and the anger of elusive spirits who resent being examined.

Croatia, 1987, 9 min. Režija / Director: Ivan Ladislav Galeta

Poigravajući se snimkom vaterpolo takmičenja, Galeta kreira neku vrstu kopernikanskog obrata u strukturi i percepciji tog slavnog sportskog meča. Vaterpolisti se i dalje kreću u odnosu na loptu, ali lopta više nije pokretan objekt nego je fiksirana u centru prizora. Film uporedo postiže više različitih efekata: superimpozicijom kopiranog materijala dekonstruira i simulira meč, a istovremeno ga pretvara u simbolički odraz solarnog sistema. Playing with a recording of water-polo match, Galeta creates a kind of Copernicus twist in the structure and perception of the famous sports match. The ball still motivates the movements of players, but it is no more the dynamic element, rather a fixed centre of the image. The film achieves a multiple effect: the superimposition of the copied material deconstructs and simulates the match and simultaneously becomes a symbolic reflection of the Solar System.

Film ANNISA govori o slijepoj tinejdžerki koja na proslavi u susjedstvu nalazi način da natjera druge da je čuju. Konačno, film MAJKE SE BAVE MAJČINSTVOM prati ženu zarobljenu u nasilnom braku koja prepliće uspomene, strasti i mitove u svojoj potrazi za slobodom. Continuing the concept initiated by La Factory at the Filmmaker’s Fortnight since 2013, the program supports the emergence of new voices in cinema around the world. Each year, it takes place in a different country and highlights local cinematography, bringing together eight emerging directors – four local and four international – to co-write and co-direct four short films. This year, Next Step Studio is highlighting Indonesia. These four short films was presented at the 65th edition of Cannes Critics’ Week. HOLY CROWD follows Ratna, who rises from the dead during her own funeral, triggering a frenzy of miracles, faith and exploitation. ORIGINAL WOUND tells the story of a brother and sister confronting memories of abuse and care after their mother's death. ANNISA is about a blind teenage girl who finds an unexpected way to make her voice heard amid a neighbourhood celebration. Finally, MOTHERS ARE MOTHERING follows a woman trapped in an abusive marriage as memory, desire and myth intertwine in her search for freedom.

Kada ih posjeti nastavnica kako bi razgovarala o njegovim ocjenama, Vlad iskorištava Hlibovo nepoznavanje italijanskog jezika i lažno predstavlja nastavnicu kao socijalnu radnicu.

IO NON DIMENTICO je "vizuelna pentalogija" posvećena svima koji su progonjeni jer se ne uklapaju u binarnu seksualnu orijentaciju, a čija je smrt mistificirana, prikrivena i tretirana kao "drugorazredna". To je putovanje kroz historiju koje nastoji dati glas onima koji se i dalje bore za pravo da vole, budu voljeni i da se vesele tjelesnim užicima. Posveta svim dušama čiji nadgrobni natpisi kriju ko su oni bili ili čak negiraju da su postojali. IO NON DIMENTICO is a "visual pentalogue" dedicated to all those who have been persecuted for not fitting into a binary sexual orientation, whose very death has been mystified, concealed, considered "secondclass." A journey through history that seeks to give a voice to all those who still fight for the right to love and be loved, and to rejoice in the pleasures of the body. A dedication to all the souls whose epitaphs hide who they were and/ or even deny their very existence.

SUMMER SCREEN Ovogodišnji program Summer Screen pokušaj je da se kroz ovaj izbor filmova prenese duh Takmičarskog programa ovogodišnjeg festivala u Cannesu kao presjek autorskih poetika i tema koje su obilježile selekciju. Svi oni dijele zajedničku nit: govore o ljudima koji pokušavaju živjeti s gubitkom, pronaći osjećaj pripadanja, izgraditi ili sačuvati vlastiti identitet, pomiriti se sa sobom ili postati neka nova verzija sebe. Kao da su se autori ove godine, umjesto velikim temama, okrenuli onome što je najbliže čovjeku. This year's Summer Screen programme seeks to capture the spirit of the Competition Programme at this year's Cannes Film Festival through a selection of films that reflects the range of artistic voices and themes defining the official selection. Despite their diversity, they share a common thread: they tell stories of people trying to live with loss, find a sense of belonging, build or preserve their identity, come to terms with themselves, or become a new version of who they are. It is as though, this year, filmmakers chose to turn away from grand narratives and focus instead on what is most intimate and deeply human.

obuzima. Uprkos haosu, posvećenost bolesnoj mlađoj sestri i nježna, rascvjetala romansa s Pauline predstavljaju njenu liniju spasa. Kako se te veze produbljuju, Garance pronalazi snagu da se suoči s tamom koju je dugo izbjegavala i kreće na teško, ali transformativno putovanje oporavka. Garance is a gifted young actor whose raw magnetism and vibrant spirit have yet to earn her the recognition she craves. Living paycheque to paycheque in a small Paris apartment, she feels increasingly suffocated by fleeting relationships, rising anxiety, and the grip of an alcohol addiction that is quietly tightening around her life. Amid the chaos, however, her devotion to her sick younger sister and a tender, blossoming romance with Pauline offer Garance a fragile lifeline. As these bonds deepen, she finds the strength to confront the darkness she has long avoided – setting her on a difficult but transformative journey to self-renewal.

Otone i njen suprug Kensuke, tugujući za svojim mladim sinom koji je preminuo pod misterioznim okolnostima, obraćaju se kompaniji "REbirth". Ova kompanija ožalošćenima omogućava da provedu još malo vremena sa svojim voljenima, koristeći robotiku generisanu vještačkom inteligencijom. Roditeljima dostavljaju vrhunski kvalitetnu humanoidnu repliku njihovog preminulog sina Kakerua. U početku, humanoid je gotovo nekomunikativan, međutim brzo se razvija i čini se da posjeduje sjećanja koja apsolutno ne bi trebalo da ima. Otone i Kensuke se, na

vlastito iznenađenje, sve više zbližavaju s tom tvorevinom koja sve više liči na njihovog sina. Grieving their young son who died in mysterious circumstances, Otone and her husband Kensuke turn to REbirth, a company that assists the bereaved by allowing them to spend more time with their deceased loved ones. Using AI-generated robotics, the company supplies the parents with a state-of-the-art humanoid replication of their lost son, Kakeru. Initially, the humanoid is barely communicative, however, develops rapidly, and appears to have memories that are impossible. Otone and Kensuke are perplexed to find themselves drawing closer and closer to what appears more and more to be their son.

Posvećeno: BÉLA TARR U SARAJEVU / The BÉLA TARR IN SARAJEVO Tribute U čast velikana filmske umjetnosti, mađarskog reditelja Béle Tarra (1955 – 2026), u sklopu programa Posvećeno prikazujemo izbor filmova njegovih studentica i studenata. Béla Tarr bio je veliki prijatelj Sarajevo Film Festivala: upravo u programu Posvećeno 2006. godine prikazana je retrospektiva njegovih izabranih filmova, dobitnik je Počasnog Srca Sarajeva 19. Sarajevo Film Festivala (2013), a 2014. predsjedavao je žirijem Takmičarskog programa - dugometražni igrani film. Ovaj put, umjesto retrospektive njegovih filmova, o njegovom nasljeđu govorimo djelima njegovih učenika koji su iz Sarajeva nastavili graditi svoje međunarodne karijere. In tribute to the great master of cinema, Hungarian filmmaker Béla Tarr (1955–2026), this year's Tribute To programme presents a selection of films by his former students. Béla Tarr was a longstanding friend of the Sarajevo Film Festival. In 2006, the Tribute To programme featured a retrospective of his selected works. He received the Honorary Heart of Sarajevo at the 19th Sarajevo Film Festival in 2013, and the following year served as President of the Jury of the Competition Programme – Feature Film. Rather than revisiting Tarr's own filmography, this year's programme reflects on his enduring legacy through the works of the filmmakers he mentored who continued to build their international careers from Sarajevo.

Ona radi kao manikirka u kozmetičkom salonu, a on studira ekonomiju i pokreće vlastitu kompaniju. Nakon telefonskog razgovora i svađe u klubu, oboje moraju krenuti u prelazak granica koje ih okružuju. Zbog toga uskoro postaje očigledno na koji način udaljenost između mjesta njihovog porijekla uslovljava način na koji se svako od njih suočava s vlastitim životom. Alejandra and Víctor come from completely different backgrounds, and live in a city that is artificially divided by a wall: Tijuana and San Diego. She works putting nails in a beauty salon, while he studies business and is starting his own company. Following a phone call and an altercation in a club, the two have to embark on a journey to the other side of their respective borders. In this way, very soon it becomes evident how those kilometres of distance between their places of origin, sentence the way in which both face their lives.

Dealing with the Past Selektor / Programmer: Nebojša Jovanović

Program Suočavanje s prošlošću nastavlja istraživati traumatično nasljeđe historije kroz različite tematske perspektive i autorske pristupe. Devet filmova u svom jubilarnom desetom izdanju – među kojima su i tri svjetske premijere – prošlost ne posmatraju kao zatvoreno poglavlje, već kao iskustvo koje i dalje oblikuje pojedince i zajednice. Kroz dokumentarne eseje, lične ispovijesti, arhivske materijale, rekonstrukcije i inovativne vizuelne forme, ovogodišnja selekcija otvara prostor za otpor nasilnim ideologijama podjela i sukoba. The Dealing with the Past programme continues to explore the traumatic legacy of history through different thematic perspectives and authorial approaches. Nine films in its jubilee tenth edition – including three world premieres – view the past not as a closed chapter, but as an experience that continues to shape individuals and communities. Through documentary essays, personal confessions, archival materials, reconstructions and innovative visual forms, this year's selection opens a space for resistance to violent ideologies of division and conflict.

DO YOU LOVE ME je razigrano i osobno putovanje kroz libanonsko audiovizuelno sjećanje sastavljeno u potpunosti od arhivskih snimaka. To je ljubavno pismo Bejrutu koje obuhvata 70 godina filma, televizije, kućnih videa i fotografije, istražujući libanonsku kolektivnu psihu obilježenu radošću i intimnošću, uništenjem i gubitkom. Kroz oči građana, filmskih stvaralaca i umjetnika, film rekonstruiše fragmentiranu historiju u zemlji bez nacionalne arhive, slaveći kreativno izražavanje kao otpor, obnovu i način očuvanja sjećanja. DO YOU LOVE ME is a playful and personal journey through Lebanon’s audiovisual memory, composed entirely of archival footage. It is a love letter to Beirut, spanning 70 years of film, TV, home videos, and photography, exploring the Lebanese collective psyche – marked by joy and intimacy, destruction and loss. Through the eyes of citizens, filmmakers and artists, the film reconstructs a fragmented history in a country without a national archive, celebrating creative expression as both resistance, renewal and a way to preserve memory.

Nakon što je njihov grad stavljen pod opsadu, životi grupe običnih ljudi mijenjaju se iz temelja, prisiljavajući ih da se suoče s nemogućim izborima u nastojanju da prežive u ratnoj zoni. Meta napada su i njihova tijela i njihov um. Dok se nose s glađu, neadekvatnom medicinskom njegom, snajperskom vatrom i bombardiranjem, oni nastavljaju živjeti i tragati za prijateljstvom, ljubavlju, intimnošću i zadovoljstvom pušenja cigarete. Mala grupa ljubitelja filma, koja je sklonište pronašla u obližnjoj videoteci, suočava se s moralnom dilemom kada mora odlučiti hoće li spaliti iznajmljene filmske kasete – koje neizmjerno cijene – kako bi se ugrijali. Jedan od opkoljenih na svojim vratima hrabro zapisuje kako opsada utječe na mentalno zdravlje: "Ne mogu zamisliti svoj život van opsade niti kraj opsade van granica moga života." When their city is placed under siege, the lives of a group of ordinary people are turned upside down, forcing each of them to confront impossible choices in pursuit of survival in a war zone. Bodies and minds are equally under attack; ordinary people are forced to reckon with starvation, inadequate medical treatment, snipers, and bomb blasts as they continue to live their lives, seeking friendship, love, intimacy, and the pleasure of smoking a cigarette. At one point, a small group of cinephiles who are sheltering in their

The psychological impact of the siege is boldly expressed in writing on the door of one of the characters's homes: “I don’t see my life outside the confines of the siege. And I don’t see an end to the siege outside of the confines of my life.”

Njihovo odrastanje i životi su se razlikovali, na različite načine su saznali istinu o svome porijeklu, ali povezuje ih unutrašnji osjećaj koji drugi ljudi ne mogu razumjeti. Njihove priče prepliću se u njihovoj zajedničkoj borbi da se njima i drugima poput njih prizna status civilnih žrtava rata, vrlo ličnim potragama i javnim nastupima, pri čemu film kroz arhivske materijale i autorske opservacije propituje pitanja identiteta i traume, kao i mogućnost izgradnje zajednice i osjećaja pripadnosti. Ajna, Alen and Lejla were born after their mothers were raped in the war. Ajna was kept by her mother, while Alen and Lejla were adopted. They grew up and lived differently and learned the truth about their origins in different ways, but they are bound by an inner feeling that is incomprehensible to all other people.

Predjeli sjećanja / Landscapes of Memory

Godine 1991, na ulazu u Tenju, ubijen je Josip Reihl Kir, načelnik Osječke policije, čovjek posvećen pregovorima i izbjegavanju rata. MIROTVORAC je priča o posljednjih nekoliko mjeseci njegovog života u osvit krvavog hrvatsko-srpskog rata, koji je Kir svim silama pokušao spriječiti. Priča je ispričana kroz izjave nekoliko svjedoka i pomoću arhivskih materijala iz tog doba. I danas, nakon više od trideset godina, mnogi su elementi tog ubistva nerazjašnjeni, a mogući nalogodavci nepoznati. Autor Ivan Ramljak jedan je od najznačajnijih hrvatskih dokumentarista srednje generacije, prepoznatljiv po svom osebujnom pristupu historijskim temama. In 1991, on the outskirts of Tenja in Croatia, Josip Reihl Kir – the chief of the Osijek Police Department, a man dedicated to negotiations and avoiding war – was assassinated. Told through the statements of witnesses and archival materials from the era, PEACEMAKER is a film about the last few months of his life, at the dawn of the bloody Croatian War of Independence, which Kir had been trying hard to prevent. Today, more than thirty years later,

Kada je 2021. godine napustila Ameriku i otputovala u Berlin, rediteljica Leah Galant mislila je da učestvuje u tradicionalnom „povratku pripadnika treće generacije“ sa ciljem upoznavanja sa sudbinom vlastite porodice u Holokaustu. Ali nedugo nakon što je privedena dok je snimala pro-Palestinske demonstracije i optužena za antisemitizam shvatila je da suočavanje sa naslijeđenom traumom zahtijeva suočavanje sa sadašnjošću, a ne samo sa prošlošću. When director Leah Galant left the U.S. for Berlin in 2021, she thought she was going on a traditional “third-generation return” to uncover her family’s Holocaust history. But, after being detained while filming a pro-Palestine demonstration, and charged with antisemitism, she quickly realized that confronting inherited trauma meant grappling with the present, not just the past.

Utakmica / The Match

Argentina, Spain, 2026, Colour, 91 min. Režija / Directors: Juan Cabral, Santiago Franco

Film UTAKMICA priča priču o kultnoj utakmici između Argentine i Engleske, odigranoj na stadionu Azteca tokom Svjetskog prvenstva u fudbalu 1986. godine. Koristeći rijetke arhivske snimke poput kontroverzne Maradonine "Božje ruke", film rekonstruiše taj događaj kao živo sjećanje, ali i kao kulminaciju više od dvjesto godina napetosti, susreta i sukoba između dvije nacije. Od najranijih trenutaka kontakta i spora do Falklandskog rata kao direktnog prethodnika, film prati historijsko putovanje koje redefinira ono što se dogodilo na terenu. Čineći to, suptilno suprotstavlja ljepotu fudbala dugotrajnoj apsurdnosti rata, omogućavajući da eho i jednog, i drugog odjekne u današnjici. THE MATCH tells the story of the iconic match between Argentina and England, played at the Azteca Stadium during the 1986 Football World Cup. Using rare archival footage such as Maradona’s controversial “Hand of God”, the film reconstructs that event as a living memory but also as the culmination of more than two hundred years of tension, encounters, and conflict between the two nations. From the earliest moments of contact and dispute to the Falklands War as a direct precursor, the film traces a historical journey that reframes what happened on the pitch. In doing so, it subtly contrasts the beauty of football with the lingering absurdity of war, allowing the echoes of both to resonate into the present day. KRATKI FILMOVI / SHORT FILMS

Kroz rijetke arhivske snimke, privatna pisma i iznimno dirljiva svjedočanstva preživjelih, članova njene porodice i njenih nekadašnjih kolega, film rekonstuira razornu realnost života pod opsadom. THE DOCTOR tells the extraordinary true story of Dr. Dušica Vujasić, a Serbian dentist who chose to remain in the besieged Bosnian town of Goražde during the Bosnian War, refusing to abandon her patients and colleagues despite having every opportunity to leave. Through rare archival footage, personal letters, and deeply moving testimonies from survivors, family members, and Vujasić's former

Matea Radić, umjetnica rođena u Sarajevu, u filmu PARADAÏZ koristi apsurdističku animaciju, arhivske snimke i vlastite nepouzdane uspomene iz djetinjstva kako bi istražila šta je zaista dom. Welcome to a place where the houses have holes, tomatoes are ticking time bombs, and snails wander the streets in search of a safe space. In PARADAÏZ, Sarajevo-born artist Matea Radic uses absurdist animation, archival images, and her own slippery childhood memories to explore the real meaning of home.

Prisjeća se prizora dvoje djece koja su skinula nacističku zastavu s Akropole, što ju je potaknulo da se s entuzijazmom pridruži antinacističkom pokretu. Malo po malo, Julija se prisjeća svoje herojske prošlosti koja će zauvijek odjekivati kroz historiju. Julia Biba is being interrogated by a nazi investigator. Her memories overwhelm her, while the investigator tries to extract useful information about her underground anti-nazi organization. Julia remembers the vision of two children who tore down the nazi flag from the Acropolis and triggered her enthusiastic involvement in the anti-nazi movement. Instance by instance, she revisits her heroic past that will echo through history forever.

DAN LJUDSKIH PRAVA

SARAJEVO FILM FESTIVAL 2026 / HUMAN RIGHTS DAY - 2026 SARAJEVO FILM FESTIVAL Sarajevo Film Festival svake godine predstavlja brojne filmove koji se, na različite načine, bave pitanjima ljudskih prava. Ipak, u okviru programa Dan ljudskih prava izdvajamo jedan naslov koji posebno snažno otvara prostor za razmišljanje i razgovor – film koji nakon projekcije postaje povod za dijalog između autora, protagonista i stručnjaka. Ove godine taj film je IMAMO SAMO SEBE rediteljskog dvojca Aline Juárez i Juana Francisca Donosa, dokumentarno ostvarenje koje povezuje dvije udaljene zajednice – pustinju Atacama u Čileu i dolinu Jadar u Srbiji – kroz zajedničko iskustvo borbe za pravo ljudi da odlučuju o budućnosti prostora koji nazivaju domom. Kroz pet godina snimanja, Juárez i Donoso prate ljude koji se nalaze u središtu ove borbe – Leylu Noriegu, novinarku i aktivisticu iz Čilea; Ramóna Balcázara, fotografa i istraživača koji dokumentira ekološke posljedice eksploatacije litija u Atacami; Bojanu Novaković, glumicu i aktivisticu iz Srbije; te Vladana Jakovljevića, pčelara iz doline Jadar. Njihove lične priče povezuju se u širu sliku globalnih procesa u kojima pitanja energetske tranzicije, ekonomskog razvoja i zaštite okoliša dolaze u direktan odnos s pravima lokalnih zajednica. Za film, ove zajednice nisu pasivne žrtve, već aktivni učesnici otpora – kroz građanske inicijative, lokalne medije, međunarodnu solidarnost i – samu umjetnost. Jer IMAMO SAMO SEBE nije samo film o otporu. On podsjeća da i sama filmska umjetnost može biti čin otpora: Juárez i Donoso otvaraju prostora za glasove koji se često ne čuju u globalnim raspravama o razvoju i zelenoj tranziciji. Kroz intimne priče svojih protagonista, film postavlja univerzalno pitanje – ko ima pravo odlučivati o budućnosti mjesta koja nazivamo domom? Zbog svoje filmske snage i taktičkog spoja ekološke perspektive i građanskog otpora, vjerujemo da će IMAMO SAMO SEBE biti jedan od dokumentarnih filmova koji će obilježiti festivalsku godinu pred nama.

SVJETSKA PREMIJERA / WORLD PREMIERE

Imamo samo sebe / All We Have Is Us

Chile, 2026, 79 min. Režija / Director: Aline Juárez, Juan Francisco Donoso Uloge / Cast: Leyla Noriega, Ramón Balcázar, Bojana Novaković, Vladan Jakovljević

Film IMAMO SAMO SEBE povezuje dva udaljena, pa ipak čvrsto povezana područja: pustinju Atacamu u Čileu i dolinu Jadra u Srbiji. Objema prijete planovi kompanije "Rio Tinto", druge najveće rudarske kompanije na svijetu, za otvaranje rudnika litijuma. Film pomno prati pet godina u životima Lejle, novinarke i aktivistkinje za zaštitu prirode iz domorodačkog naroda Aymara, i Bojanu, srpsku glumicu koja se bori da zaštiti selo svoje majke. Prateći ih na protestima, javnim događajima od velikog značaja i u svakodnevnom životu, film postaje svjedočanstvo o ličnoj cijeni koju plaćaju za zaštitu prirode. Kada se njihovi putevi ukrste, ove dvije žene pletu transkontinentalnu mrežu solidarnosti s lokalnim farmerima, aktivistima i umjetnicima. ALL WE HAVE IS US connects two distant yet deeply intertwined territories: the Atacama Desert in Chile and the Jadar Valley in Serbia, both threatened by lithium mining projects led by Rio Tinto, the world’s second-largest mining company. Over five years, the film closely chronicles Leyla, an Aymara journalist and land defender, and Bojana, a Serbian actor fighting to protect her mother’s village. Through protests, highstakes public events, and intimate everyday moments, we witness the raw personal stakes of environmental struggle. As their paths cross, these women weave a transcontinental network of solidarity with local farmers, activists, and artists. 52 SARAJEVO FILM FESTIVAL / 14-21/08/2026 / www.sff.ba

Each year, the Sarajevo Film Festival showcases numerous films that, in various ways, explore issues of human rights. For our Human Rights Day programme, however, we select one particularly impactful film that inspires thinking and dialogue and is discussed after the screening by the filmmakers, protagonists, and experts. This year’s selection is ALL WE HAVE IS US, co-directed by Alina Juárez and Juan Francisco Donoso. This documentary binds together people in two distant territories – the Atacama Desert in Chile and the Jadar Valley in Serbia – through their shared struggle for the right to decide the future of the place they call home. Over five years, Juárez and Donoso followed people at the heart of this struggle: Chilean journalist and activist Leyla Noriega; Ramón Balcázar, a photographer and socio-environmental researcher documenting documents the economic impact of lithium mining in the Atacama; Serbian actor Bojana Novaković; and Vladan Jakovljević, a beekeeper from the Jadar Valley. Their personal stories intertwine to present the picture of a global process in which energy transition, economic development, and environmental protection directly impact the rights of local communities. The people in this film are not passive victims; rather, they are active participants who resist through civil initiatives, local media discourse, international solidarity, and art. As well as being a film about resistance, ALL WE HAVE IS US is a reminder that filmmaking itself can be an act of resistance. Juárez and Donoso create space for voices that are not often heard in global debates about progress and green transition. Through the intimate stories of its protagonists, the film asks a universal question: Who has the right to decide about the future of the places we call home? Because of its powerful execution and a tactical pairing of environmental and civil resistance perspectives, we believe that ALL WE HAVE IS US will be among the documentary films that distinguish the festival edition ahead of us.

Sve se mijenja kada upozna izrazito nezavisnu Ninu, čija uvjerenja redefinišu svijet u kojem je odrastao. Kako se njihova veza produbljuje, Alecov doživljaj seksualnosti i žudnje počinje se mijenjati.

Iva works in a clothing factory in rural Bulgaria battling a persistent, yet mysterious illness. When it is revealed that she is the first case of COVID in her small town, the news spirals into an endless j’accuse— first from the factory owners eager to shift responsibility, then from her fellow co-workers, her son, and eventually her entire community, even though Iva hasn’t left her small town in years. With Iva’s public demonization escalating as the first victims of the virus emerge, she is quickly turned into a social outcast.

Belgium, Lebanon, Palestine, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, 2026, 100 min. Režija / Director: Rakan Mayasi Uloge / Cast: Rim Al Mawla, Jawaher Al Mawla, Yasser Al Mawla

U tihoj, maglovitoj dolini Bekaa, na granici između Libana i Sirije, neko zapali kamion.

Članica čvrsto povezane beduinske zajednice, Gamra, je nestala. Možda se krije, a možda bježi. U potrazi za njom, njen rođak Yasser pregazi člana konkurentskog plemena. Odlučeno je da njegove sestre Rim i Jawaher budu ponuđene kao žrtve i odu u noć. Da li će njihova žrtva biti dovoljna da očuva krhki balans ili će plamen progutati čitavo selo? In the quiet fog of the Bekaa Valley, on the border between Lebanon and Syria, someone sets fire to a truck. In this tightly woven Bedouin community, Gamra is gone, maybe hiding maybe running. As her cousin Yasser sets out to find her, he runs over a man from a rival tribe. His sisters Rim and Jawaher are chosen to walk into the night as an offering. Will their sacrifice be enough to preserve the fragile balance, or will this burning flame spread through the entire village?

Souraya Mon Amour Lebanon, Qatar, 2025, 81 min. Režija / Director: Nicolas Khoury Uloge / Cast: Souraya Baghdadi

Film SOURAYA MON AMOUR uvodi gledaoce u intiman svijet Souraye Baghdadi, ispunjen plesom, filmom, meditacijom, uspomenama i dubokim refleksijama. Priča počinje 1981. godine, tokom snimanja filma MALI RATOVI u ratom razorenom Bejrutu, gdje je Souraya odigrala glavnu ulogu. Nakon premijere filma u Cannesu, Souraya i Maroun sele se u Pariz i započinju zajednički život. U decembru 1993. Maroun iznenada umire pod misterioznim okolnostima, u trenutku kada je Souraya trudna s njihovim trećim djetetom. Souraya Mon Amour invites us into the private world of Souraya Baghdadi—a world filled with dance, film, meditation, memories, and deep reflection. Their story began in 1981 during the filming of Little Wars in war-torn Beirut, when Souraya played the lead role. After the movie premiered at Cannes, they moved to Paris and started a life together. But in December 1993, Maroun died suddenly and mysteriously, just as Souraya was expecting their third child.

U maloj džamiji upoznajemo Fahada i njegovog djeda imama. Fahad ima masnicu na oku i sve što želi jeste da izbjegne pitanja rodbine i sukob. Iako žive u modernom Kataru, Fahadova konzervativna porodica nema potrebne komunikacijske vještine za otvorenu diskusiju, pa su prisiljeni smišljati vlastite priče i pretpostavke o tome šta Fahad zaista radi noću. In a small mosque in contemporary Qatar, we

meet Fahad and his grandfather, the imam. Fahad has a black eye and wants nothing more than to avoid conflict and questioning from his family. Fahad’s conservative family members lack the communication skills required to have open discussions and are instead forced to create their own narratives and assumptions about what Fahad is really doing at night.

Qatar, 2025, 14 min. Režija / Director: Mahdi Ali Ali Uloge / Cast: Jessica Gibson

Duboko introspektivna priča filma PALMINA GRANA prati ženu koja se bori s ljubavlju, gubitkom i misterijama mora. Na plaži, u crvenoj haljini, ona stoji odbrambeno okrenuta prema valovima koji se lome o obalu. Kod kuće, odjekuju razgovori s mužem u kojima se isprepliću stare istine i narodne priče o ženama iz Perzijskog zaljeva koje su kaznile more tako što su ga zapalile. A deeply introspective tale unfolds as a woman grapples with love, loss, and the mysteries of the sea. On a beach, she stands in a red dress, her demeanour defensive against the crashing waves. At home, conversations with her husband echo, weaving between past truths and fantastical folklore about the women of the Arabian Gulf who punished the sea by burning it.

The house shifts from haven to experiment as machines hum like lullabies and affection tightens into surveillance.

Sudan, Qatar, 2025, 10 min. Režija / Director: Eiman Mirghani

Telefon sudanske filmske autorice Eiman Mirghani zavibrira nakon što primi poruku: njen otac izgubio je posao i mora spakovati stvari i napustiti kuću u Dohi koja je decenijama bila njihov porodični dom. Šokantna vijest pokreće poplavu uspomena na život u Vili 187, a nostalgija se miješa s nervozom zbog nesigurne budućnosti. Kroz to ponovno otkrivanje onoga što je nekada bilo, probija se pitanje: šta znači negdje pripadati nakon što ste već jednom bili prisiljeni napustiti dom? Kako se pozdraviti sa zidovima unutar kojih ste odrasli? Da li kuća može čuvati priču neke porodice dugo nakon što je ta porodica napusti? One day, Sudanese filmmaker Eiman Mirghani’s phone buzzed with a message: her father had lost his job, and the family had to pack up their life in the Doha house they’d called home for decades. The shock cracked open a flood of memories inside Villa 187, blurring nostalgia with the anxious anticipation of an uncertain future. Through this rediscovery, questions emerge: What does belonging look like when you’re already displaced? How do you say goodbye to the walls that raised you? Can a house hold the story of a family long after they’ve gone?

Film ŽENA S KRAJOLIKOM jedna od onih svakodnevnih priča o sukobu između pojedinca neobične osjetljivosti i okoline svedene na elementarne interese. Samouki slikar naive privlači pažnju udate građanike. Njihova bliskost uznemiruje zajednicu, koja reagira represivno. The film WOMAN WITH A LANDSCAPE is one of those everyday stories about the conflict between an individual of unusual sensibility and an environment reduced to elementary interests. A self-taught naïve painter attracts the attention of a married townswoman. Their closeness disturbs the community, which responds repressively.

Kada se noćna čuvarica Sonja Kern probudi na podu opljačkanog bankovnog trezora, ne sjeća se ničega. Nema tragova provale, alarm se nije oglasio, a sigurnosne kamere nisu zabilježile ništa. Budući da je jedina pronađena u trezoru, ujedno je i najlakše okriviti – samohrana majka bez novca s policijskim dosjeom. Inspektorica Deja Kolenc gradi slučaj oslanjajući se na intuiciju, dok Maksimilijan Sotler, hladnokrvni i pedantni istražitelj osiguravajućeg društva, istom zločinu pristupa iz sasvim druge perspektive. Polako se razotkriva pozadina pljačke koja vodi do kampanje za gradonačelnika, tajanstvenog financijera i dokumenta zbog kojeg su moćni ljudi spremni ubiti. Dok joj se sjećanje polagano vraća, Sonja će biti prisiljena izabrati između istine i jedine osobe do koje joj je stalo. When night guard Sonja Kern wakes up on the floor of a robbed bank vault, she cannot remember a thing. There is no sign of forced entry, no alarm, and nothing on the security cameras. The only person found inside, she is also the easiest to blame: a broke single mother with a police record. Inspector Deja Kolenc builds the case on instinct, while Maksimilijan Sotler, a coldly precise insurance investigator, approaches the same crime from the opposite side. Slowly, the structure behind the robbery begins to surface, leading to a mayoral campaign, a silent financier, and a document that powerful men will kill for. As Sonja's memory gradually returns, one beat at a time, she is forced to choose between the truth and the only person she cares about.

Amandu i njenog očuha Martina muče moralne dileme koje ih međusobno udaljavaju. Da li je Amandina majka Lesli, koja je u poodmakloj fazi demencije, izgubila sposobnost da samostalno odlučuje o vlastitoj dobrobiti? I, ako jeste, ko o tome odlučuje: suprug, dijete, institucije? Posljedice sve težih odluka, koje su Amanda i Martin prisiljeni da donose, izmiču njihovoj kontroli. Amanda and her stepfather Martin struggle with a moral issue that divides them. Has Amanda’s mother, who is experiencing advanced dementia, lost the ability to make critical decisions in her own best interest? If so, who is responsible – a spouse, a child, an institution – for making such a determination? As Amanda and Martin are forced to make increasingly difficult choices, the repercussions spiral out of their control.

Radnja filma LOMEĆI VALOVE smještena je u rane sedamdesete godine prošlog stoljeća, u malu, čvrsto povezanu zajednicu na udaljenoj sjevernoj obali Škotske. Film donosi priču o Bess, mladoj, naivnoj i nevinoj djevojci i njenom iskustvu duboke ljubavi. Bess je provela život sa svojom majkom, djedom i nedavno obudovjelom snahom Dodo, slijedeći stroga kalvinistička pravila. Zaljubljuje se u Jana, radnika na naftnoj platformi bogatog životnog iskustva, koji je očaran njenom nevinošću i čistoćom. Uprkos protivljenju zajednice, njih se dvoje vjenčaju. Set in the early 1970's amid a small tightly knit community on the remote North coast of Scotland, BREAKING THE WAVES tells the story of Bess, a young, naive and innocent girl and her profound experience of love. Bess, who has lived her life protected by her family: her mother, grandfather and recently widowed sister-in-law, Dodo; within the confined world of strict Calvinism, falls in love with Jan, a stalwart oil-rig

worker and man-of-the-world. Jan in turn is captivated by Bess's innocence and the purity she radiates. Despite local opposition the couple marry.

Njegovo istraživanje ubrzo ga odvodi među galeriju osebujnih likova: gurua Vicu, engleskog umjetnika Frigsteena i njegovu Mehaničku kokoš. Vice ima teoriju da se prometne gužve namjerno stvaraju kako bi se opravdalo bušenje tunela kroz planinu s ciljem dolaska do Teslinog oscilatora. Dante, a local renter of a semi-submarine, finds a camera in the apartment that was forgotten by a Czech tourist and decides to use it to record a documentary film about the construction of the Split-Omiš expressway and the Omiš bypass. His research soon leads him among a gallery of peculiar characters: the guru VicE, the English artist Frigsteen and his Mechanical Chicken. Vice has a theory that the traffic jams are purposely created to justify drilling a tunnel through the mountain to reach Tesla's oscillator.

Godina je 2045: čovječanstvo je skoro pobijedilo smrt, ali u nekim dijelovima svijeta pitanje parkinga još uvijek nije riješeno. Najmoćniji političar jedne sarajevske opštine odlučio je da ostvari kontroverznu ideju i na mjestu starog lokalnog groblja napravi parkiralište. Naravno, to je samo kap koja je prelila čašu. The year is 2045: humankind has almost defeated death, but in some parts of the world the problem of the parking-space shortage has yet to be resolved. The most powerful political leader of a Sarajevo municipality decides to implement a controversial idea and build a parking lot atop an old local cemetery. Of course, it is just the drop that causes the glass to overflow.

Marija je klizačica koja živi s ocem, vozačem kamiona, na periferiji Beograda. Skrhana tugom zbog majčine smrti, Marija ne može da izrazi svoju seksualnost.

Potraga se odvija u devedeset minuta "živog kina", prema načelima izvršnog producenta Francisa Forda Coppole, kao neprekidno putovanje kroz četvrt North Beach u San Franciscu koje ih vodi ka posljednjem nastupu zabilježenom svega nekoliko sedmica prije očeve smrti.

Tutti Frutti

Live Aid i dalje je uzor i dokaz šta se može postići kada se muzičari ujedine da bi postigli zajednički cij. Kada je ratom razorenu Etiopiju 1983. pogodila razorna suša, tamošnji brutalni diktatorski režim milionima ljudi uskratio je hranu. Više od milion ljudi umrlo je od gladi. Opasna ratna zona nije obeshrabrila kenijskog fotografa Mohameda Amina niti njegove kolege sa BBC-ja, Michaela Buerka i Mikea Wooldrigea. Iskusni tim ratnih reportera rizikovao je život kako bi otkrili istinu o po mnogima najgoroj humanitarnoj katastrofi dvadesetog vijeka. Forty years after the recording of We Are The World, the pop anthem still resonates for music lovers worldwide ... and the global concert Live Aid remains the benchmark for what’s possible when musicians come together in a common cause. When drought hit Ethiopia in 1983, millions of people in the war-ravaged nation were denied food relief by a ruthless dictatorship. More than one million people starved to death. The treacherous war zone didn’t stop Kenyan photojournalist Mohamed Amin or his BBC colleagues Michael Buerk and Mike Wooldridge. The skilled frontline team risked their lives to tell the truth behind what many consider the worst humanitarian disaster of the 20th century.

Film je napravljen kao dio „Où en êtes-vous?“ kolekcije Centra Pompidou. Since 2022, Céline Sciamma has been shooting her own footage: documentary archives born from the desire of a useful camera. Fiction, for its part, has once again become a dream. TUTTI FRUTTI is a journey through all these fragments brought together by editing, and an exploration of the hope of a solo filmmaking practice. The film made as part of the “Où en êtes-vous ?” (Where are you at?) collection for Centre Pompidou. * Film “Tutti Frutti” će biti prikazan uz Masterclass Céline Sciamma u BKC-u, u petak, 21.8. 2026., koji počinje u 10 sati. / Céline Sciamma's “Tutti Frutti” will be screened as part of her Masterclass at the Bosnian Cultural Center (BKC) on Friday, August 21, 2026.

San ne dolazi na oči, a misli lutaju – uzorne, upitne, zastrašujuće i lijepe. Jedna se misao zadržava: ako je Zemlja poput klikera u bezgraničnom prostoru, šta onda znači svaki pojedinačni život na njoj? Sleep refuses to come, and thoughts drift — admirable, questionable, frightening, and beautiful. One thought lingers: if Earth is just a marble in infinite space, what does any single life upon it mean?

SARAJEVO FILM FESTIVAL / 14-21/08/2026 / www.sff.ba 77

Coca-Cola i Sarajevo Film Festival: Nazdravljamo za 30 godina kontinuirane saradnje! Na hiljade filmskih projekcija, milioni emocija i nezaboravnih trenutaka, i najdugovječnija saradnja u okviru Festivala. Uz podršku Coca-Cole, već 30 godina, magično iskustvo Sarajevo Film Festivala, koje je uvijek više od filma, pronalazi svoj put do srca publike. Partnerstvo traje u kontinuitetu, a raslo je zajedno sa Festivalom i postalo važan dio njegove atmosfere, identiteta i razvoja. Obilježavajući ovaj važan jubilej, 30 godina zajedničkih

vrijednosti, ulaganja u lokalnu zajednicu i kreativni potencijal, Coca-Cola i Sarajevo Film Festival ozvaničili su i nastavak saradnje, potpisom novog, četverogodišnjeg ugovora. Kreirana je i nova komunikacijska platforma „30 ljeta ista scena“, koja podsjeća na one posebne trenutke Festivala koji ostaju isti bez obzira na godine, filmove ili generacije koje dolaze.

BH Telecom: Ulaganje u priče koje ostaju BH Telecom je vodeći digitalni integrator bh. društva i dugogodišnji glavni sponzor Sarajevo Film Festivala, najznačajnijeg filmskog događaja u regiji. Kroz platformu BH ContentLab, investirano je više od 30 miliona KM u domaću filmsku i televizijsku produkciju, potvrđujući svoju ulogu jednog od najznačajnijih pokretača kreativne industrije u Bosni i Hercegovini. Među projektima koje smo podržali nalaze se filmovi PAVILJON, TESTAMENT, BOSANSKI VITEZ i TRENUTAK, te serije ZNAM KAKO DIŠEŠ, KOTLINA (S1 i S2) i KOMAR, kao i sitcomi NA RUBU PAMETI

i TENDER. Poseban međunarodni uspjeh ostvarila je serija ZNAM KAKO DIŠEŠ, koja je emitovana i na renomiranoj HBO platformi. BH Telecom je također koproducent serija TRAKE i KAD SAM BIO HODŽA, nastavljajući ulagati u razvoj domaće audiovizuelne produkcije i stvaranje sadržaja koji pronalaze put do publike u Bosni i Hercegovini, regionu i šire. Moje Sarajevo. Moja priča. BH Telecom
