The Iron Gates (2024)
Cinematic observations and testimonies intertwine with interpretations of contemporary dancers, the author’s sculptural work, and the voices of actors who lend their voices to non-human protagonists: geological formations, infrastructural objects, and animals. The author of the film, whose family was deported from Yugoslavia to Germany during the Second World War, re-learns the Serbian language, and reflects on the notion of migration and progress.
Director: Barbara Knežević
