Croatian Films at Cannes Film Market
Croatian Audiovisual Centre will be present at this year’s edition of the Cannes Film Market – Marché du Film which will run for 12 days as a part of the Cannes Film Festival / Festival de Cannes (May 11 – 22 2011).
The stand of the Croatian Audiovisual Centre will be for the second year located at the Village International Riviera in the framework of the South-East European Pavilion, n. 135.
Eight countries of the region - Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Macedonia, Montenegro, Slovenia and Serbia - will present their cinematic output to the rest of the filmmaking community. The regional umbrella pavilion (no. 135) will serve a dual purpose: as a shared common space playing host to eight separate information points – one for each participating country – and as a meeting place where filmmakers from Southeastern Europe can come together, meet their peers from other countries, conduct meetings and present their projects during the Cannes Film Market.
The Centre will present four recently produced feature films: a children’s film Koko and the Ghosts (dir. Daniel Kušan) and a historical drama Lea and Daria (dir. Branko Ivanda) will be screened along the two documentaries: Am I Happy or What? (dir. Vanja Sviličić) and a docu-musical comedy Marija’s Own (dir. Željka Suková).
