(Hrvatski) FROOOM! & CinEd: Mladi polaznici filmske radionice stvorili vlastiti kratki film, sada se organizira projekcija

Young participants of the film workshop “Combat Cinema: Film and Resistance” have created their own short film titled “Is There Hope for Us?”. This unique project allowed participants to collectively create, analyze, and question the boundaries of engaged cinema. The film will be presented on March 15th at the Dokukino KIC in Zagreb, followed by a discussion with the authors and mentors.

On Saturday, March 15, 2025, at 5:00 PM, the short film “Is There Hope for Us?” will be screened at Dokukino KIC (Preradovićeva 5). The screening will be followed by a conversation with the workshop participants and the mentors.

The Combat Cinema: Film and Resistance workshop was held from February 24 to 28, 2025, as part of the CinEd projectand the Frooom! film school, in collaboration with Dokukino KIC and Cinema Unseen. The workshop was intended for young people aged 14 to 19.

Over the course of five days, participants, under the mentorship of film author and dramaturge Karla Crnčević and film critic and curator Dina Pokrajac, explored the history of subversive and politically engaged cinema, watched and discussed films from the Third Cinema, considered what the concept of resistance means to them, and gathered materials (texts, photographs, newspaper articles, videos) to create their own short film while learning to work as a collective.

The workshop participants are:

• Petra Biršić
• Dora Pecigoš
• Mak Ratković Rajhvajn
• Ozren Stojsavljević
• Sunčica Škornjak

Come and support the future young filmmakers and participate in the conversation with them and their mentors about their experiences and the process of making the film. We look forward to seeing you at Dokukino KIC!

The workshop and screening were organized by the Association Bacači sjenki, with funding from the Croatian Audiovisual Centre (HAVC) and the City of Zagreb – City Office for Culture and Civil Society.
