synopsis
Buckle up for a roller‑coaster showcase that proves great cinema needs no intermission.
● Brace yourself for The Man Who Couldn’t Remain Silent, the Academy Award‑nominated powerhouse that turns a single act of courage into pulse‑pounding drama.
● Cross continents Step into the world of Stane, where tradition collides with truth on the day of a family business handover. In this American-Croatian character study, love, legacy, and patriarchy are thrown into sharp relief.
● Catch your breath as Aussie‑Croat dynamo Ivana Zorić flips the mood in her riotous debut comedy Donna’s Got It. Because every nail‑biter needs a belly laugh.
● Fall in love with Split’s animated jewel Zarko, Don’t Spoil the Child, a hand‑painted hug that’s charmed audiences from Annecy to Zagreb.
● Finish strong with the multi award winning, Oscar eligible Unspoken, a gut‑wrenching tour de force that lingers long after the lights come up.
Five films. One session. From true‑event dramas to a laugh‑out‑loud comedy and a heart‑mending animation, this is the definitive sampler of Croatia’s cinematic firepower. Miss it and you’ll be talking about what you didn’t see.
