An author’s perspective of the world

Film, as a sublimation of all arts, is a true medium, a universal vehicle with which the broader public is presented with a

world view, as seen by the eye of the fi lmmaker.

Nowadays, due to the global economic crisis, which is ironically producing technological and all sorts of other develop-

ments, an increasing number of people are pushed to the margins of average standards of living, and fi lmmakers are

given the chance to bring under their ‘protection’ millions of disillusioned people with their fi lmmaking capabilities.

Art, throughout its history, has always praised but has also been heavily critical of its subject. Film is not just that. Film

is that and so much more. Film is life itself and beyond life. Film is everything many of us dream about but never dare

to say out loud. That is why people love fi lms. That is why it is eternal. It tears down boundaries and brings together cul-

tures. It awakens curiosity and builds bridges from one far away coast to another. Film is a ‘great lie’ but an even greater

truth.

Yugoslavian, and today the Serbian fi lm industry has always been ‘in trend’. It might sound harsh but, unfortunately, this

region has always provided ample ‘material’ for fi lms.

Under our Balkan clouds there has been an ongoing battle about which people are older, which came and settled

fi rst, who started it and who will be fi rst to leave and such battles have been and continue to be an inspiration to fi lm

producers. It has also been a polygon for geopolitical experiments which, like always, end at the expense of millions of

innocent people.

Serbian fi lmmakers had a tendency to be focused on the negative aspects of society and even critical of their leaders

which was not in any way simple or without its dangers. The ‘Black Wave’ was a recognizable critical fi lm genre, during

the 1970s, in time of Tito’s Yugoslavia.

Today, the Serbian fi lm industry is once again showing signs of life something that I can confi rm, not only as an actor,

but also as a director and fi lm producer. In times when it’s risky and hard, even for the millionaires of this world, which I

feel very ‘sorry’ for, in Serbia we continue to make fi lms.

All the more often, fi lmmakers are taking upon themselves the roles of producers to ensure a professional fi nal out-

come and control the entire procedure of the production so that the piece of art that is presented in front of viewers

remains true and untainted.

The foundation responsible for the vitality of the Serbian fi lm industry, which is now particularly evident, are the

young fi lmmakers. Various fi lms from young fi lmmakers in the recent years have very critically, bravely and originally

‘scanned’ life in Serbia. As a result we have the once brave and brilliant directors including: Saša Petrović, Dušan

Makavejeva, Puriša Đorđević, Žika Pavlović , along with those who are still very much strong and continue making fi lms;

Želimir Žilnik, Goran Paskaljević, Emir Kusturica, Slobodan Šijan,Goran Marković, Darko Bajić, Srdan Golubović, Srđan

Dragojević, and introducing the new generation: Stefan Arsenijević, Nikola Ležajić, Maja Miloš, Stevan Filipović, who

without compromise try to eliminate the inertia of the tired national corpus. With their attitude towards life and fi lm,

the future of Serbian fi lm is forever certain.

Film fans in Johannesburg will see for themselves that Serbia rightfully belongs to in the scene of world fi lm and will be

given the opportunity to see the work of directors from diff erent generations and various world views. Among them,

my fi lm, “The White Lions”, which tells the story of the struggles of a small man against the big and powerful world, will

also be shown.

I believe that the intention of the organizers was just that.
