‘The pavilion’ CourTesy of Sarajevo Film Festival

Ahead of the World Premiere of The pavilion, Thr Asked The Director About His Return to Film Work, The Creative Team Behind the Movie, and His Exciterim About DEBUTING IT IN SARAJEVO.

WHY DID YOU WANT TO DIRECT The pavilion and How did the writers viktor and emir pitch the script to you? I Think You All Knew Each Other Before?

Because It Came to Me at the Right Time and from the Right Addresses. I Know Viktor and Emir Extremely Well – I Worked on Their Texts in Theater, So I Know Their Writing style, and they Know Mine. We are friends; Many Things Connect US Together, from A Sense of Humor to Our WorldView.

The ScreenPlay Was Born from Viktor’s Novella. WHEN SENT ME The Script, I Didn’t Read It WitH A “COOL HEAD” buting with The FEELING: “HERE, they’ve Prepared Something that Will Touch Me and Anger ME at the Same Time.” An [that was] Right. The Characters Are Alive, The Story Captures You, and themes Are Bitter Yet Necessary.

Is The Story of the Film Based on a Real Case?

It’s Not One Special Special Case, But It Could Be – And Unfortunately, That Is What Hurts The Mist. In this story, there is so Many familiar patterns from Our Society: Corruption, Negligence, Greed… Even While Were Filming, there Were Similar Episodes in Nursing. These are everyday News Stories, Only We Compress Them Into and Hour and A Half in the Film, Making them Feel Even More Intense.

Do you feel themes of the movie are not just specify to your country?

THESE Are Indeed Universal Themes. HERE we recognize them by Our Names and Streets, But The Same Things Happen in London, Buenos Aires, or Istanbul. Profit Before Dignity, Abuse of Power, Manipulating the Weak – This Is A Global Catalog of Problems. Pavilion does not showcase “Our Special Misfortune” But Rather What We Share with The Rest of the Planet.

WHERE DID YOU FIND The Actors? I Recognized Rade from Some of His Hollywood Work

Everyone Knows Rade ŠerBed themselves as a great Film Star from this region, and that was a Sure Ticket – He Brings Experience But Also His Eternal Curiosity to Explore NEW FILM Charaac. The REST OF THE CAST IS VERY ExperienCed, With Many Films and Roles. I’ve worked with some of them in theater, and i KNOW ORHERS FROM MY FIRST FEATURE FILM. TheSe are actors who inspire me, and i Believe they elevate the quality of the Film.

On Set, Experience and Freshness Complement Each Other and SomeTimes Challenge Each Other. And that’s Good Because the Film Grows from that mix of Older and Younger actors.

WHY DID YOU DECIDE TO RETURN TO FILM DIRECTING THAN 20 YEARS AFTER YOUR MOVIE REMAKEAnd Did You Think About Directing in Those Years Between the Films or Did You Have Your Focus on Your Other Activities?

I HAVEN’T ESCAPED FROM FROMM; Rater, Circumstans Led Me to Develop My Career More in Theater, WHICH PULLED ME TOWARD The STAGE. But Film have always been washare under the surface. The screenplay of Pavilion just reminded me of How Much that type of Storytelling is in my Blood. It wasn’t a Decision of “It’s Time,” But Racher An Inner Feeling: “If I Don’t Film This, I Will Regret It For the Rest of My Life.”

Do you know what you will do next?

I am soon starting work on a new film that touches up the Upon Our Past in the City of Priyedor. The Film is Titled Trake (Armbands) And Opens Up A Wartime Story Based on the Faculty Tragedy of Tat City, WHEN PEOPLE, BECAUSE OF THEIR ETHNIC BACKGROUND (Bosniaks and Croats) with White Armbands. The Film Follows of A Young Interthnic Couple Whose Love, In The Whirlwind of A Bloody History, Remains Pure, UNCHANGED, AND EXALTED. This UpComing Film is Thererefore Entirely Different in Genre and Theme From Pavilion.

How Special Is It For You to Open the 31st Edition of the Sarajevo Film Festival With Your Movie?

It’s An Honor That Warms Your Heart and TIGTENS YOUR STOMACH A LITTLE. Sarajevo Is My City, and The SFF HAS LONG BECOME A WORLD Address. Opening the Festival Means Telling a Story to Those Who Know You Best, But Also In Front of Guests from All Over the World. IT’s A Moment WHEN YOUR HOME GROUND AND GLOBAL PRMIEER MERGE INTO The SAME FEELING – AND BELIEVE ME, THAT DOESN’T HAPPEN OFTEN.
