Poslije zime

In avoidance of a conventional narrative arc Ivan Bakrač sets off in search of clues amidst the sensitivities of Generation In-Between. In the film's episodic structure the characters' past remains deliberately opaque. The wandering dramaturgy, characterised by omissions, portrays a feeling of not belonging, whilst the summery camera perspectives convey the carelessness of fleeting youth. The events around them force these young people to take responsibility in a world that, for them, consists primarily of fragmentary narratives from the past and the loose ends of history. Against a background of autobiographical experience, AFTER THE WINTER explores the trauma and dispositions of young adults today in the successor states of the former Yugoslavia.
