Masterclass: Mila Turajlić - Tracing Archives: From Official to Private Memory

FRIDAY, 31/03, 15:00, DOKUKINO KIC (PRERADOVIĆEVA 5)

In association with Restart, we are organising a masterclass of the multi award-winning filmmaker Mila Turajlić (Cinema Komunisto, Druga strana svega, Dosje Labudović: Nesvrstani and Dosje Labudović: Ciné-Guerrillas), with a focus on her versatile work with archives and different artistic and research strategies she applies. Turajlić will speak about her lasting fascination with archives to which she turns in her dissatisfaction with deliberate alteration of history and Yugoslavia’s cultural heritage. Turajlić sees a reappropriation of archives a gesture against oblivion and her generation’s fight for the right to write a history of their own, in a personal and subjective tone. She will also focus on the issue of access commercialisation and archive ownership.

MODERATOR: Nebojša Slijepčević

At 17:00 in Dokukino KIC, Preradovićeva 5, a screening will be held of Mila Turajlić’s Cinema Komunisto, Serbia, 2010, 100’.
