Synopsis:
A brutal conflict develops between the generations in a lost river landscape. Lack of perspective, adultery and hatred between brothers escalate into deadly violence. The film lives from its impressive atmosphere and the masterfully composed winter scenes from the wide expanses of Vojvodina.
Two brothers, one widowed, the other married, two cousins who growing up like siblings, a young wife who is expecting a child from someone else, but won’t mention his name. And there’s a veterinarian who has never carried out an abortion on humans, a maliciously destroyed fishing net, a shot and someone who goes to prison for it although he didn’t kill anyone. Svetislav Dragomirović takes a calm and slow approach with few protagonists for a family drama in the country, which is his directorial debut at the Belgrade Film Academy. Adopting an unusual narrative style, he creates a gloomy atmosphere of lies, aggression and self-destruction, bigotry and old dependencies where violence is always present. Many years later, the former child is still struggling as a young adult with his guilt. The landscape with its reed banks, forests and farms becomes another protagonist in this impressive genre picture from the north of Serbia.

AKTZEICHNEN

Am Mittwoch, den 4. März 2020 wollen wir uns wieder zu einer gemütlich-meditativen Aktzeichnen Runde zusammenfinden und unserer Gespür für visuelle Komposition schulen – sprich unseren Blick für die Anordnung von Figuren und Gegenständen in einem Raum, für Proportionen, Perspektiven, Linien, Flächen, Licht, Farben etc.

Das eingeladene Modell wird für uns in verschiedenen Längen posieren. Je nach Lust und Laune werden wir kleinere Übungen integrieren. Mitzubringen brauchst du nur einen Stift (oder ein anderes Zeichenutensil) und Papier. Deine innere Kritiker*in kannst du zuhause lassen!

LIFE DRAWING

On Wednesday, March 4th 2020 we want to meet up for a cosy, meditative Life Drawing Session and train our sense for visual composition – meaning our perception of the arrangement of figures and objects in a space, of proportions, perspectives, lines, shapes, light, colors etc.

The invited model will pose for us in various lengths. Depending on our mood we will integrate little exercises. All you need to bring is a pen (or any other drawing utensil) and paper. Your inner critic you can leave at home!
