Separation, Vivid Dreams

Separation

PORTUGAL PREMIER


Bojana Radulovic

Montenegro, Belgium

0:18:00


For the first time in seventeen years, the director enters her childhood home in Montenegro, a single fragile building to have survived a brutal transition. Inside, removing cellophane tarps, reveals not so much her memories but more the immobility between the past of civil war and a future with meagre illusions. At each cardinal point, a filmic territory opens within a personal journey along the separated Balkan territory, re-enacting vivid dreams as an attempt to adapt to the reality of a new world order initiated when the dismembering of Yugoslavia played out, or to freedom.
