21st AUTEUR FILM FESTIVAL 2015 - Belgrade
Auteur Film Festival was established twenty years ago in Serbia and Belgrade under sanctions, isolated, in total darkness and cut off from the rest of the world. In a country excluded from all cultural and civilizational events, in the pre Internet age, all windows and doors were closed, boarded up, bolted, and we, amongst it all, isolated, humiliated and rejected. In Belgrade, only shortly before considered a metropolis of cultural, powerful and vibrant life, the city of New Wave, BITEF, FEST, and rich cultural life.
