A WORD FROM THE SELECTOR
Considering one-minute films, most of this year’s program consists of works by domestic authors. Nine years ago, there were almost no domestic productions at the first edition of the festival, and now the largest number of the shortest films in the world (ten) arrived from Serbia. Authors Nikolina Santovac, Zoran Ilic, Petar Backonja, Lazar Backonja, Zeljko Petrovic, Katarina Sapun, Nikol Jagec and Milica Stojanovic participate in the competition for the best domestic/Serbian one-minute film, as well as for other awards in the selection (except for the award given exclusively for the best foreign film).
As for the general impression of the films, the feeling of a global crisis in which environmental, health, economic and political troubles seem to follow each other, seems to have formed a kind of distance of the authors towards the world around them. Descriptions of anxious social conditions and melancholic poetic feelings show the absence of political pragmatism in the engaged character of their work. It seems that these films offer a motive for public discussion and theoretical analysis even more than the practical meaning of their own production. Therefore, having in mind the fact that the editing-directorial method of Professor Slavko Vorkapich served as an inspiration to many film theorists, as well as our desire for the festival to be as adequately theoretically accompanied (to the extent that it inspires the practice of making one-minute films), we dedicate the new edition of the festival to written and oral interpretations of the seventh art, both on film and around film.
