LOST AND FOUND Bosnia & Herzegovina/ Bulgaria/ Estonia/ Hungary/ Romania/ Serbia - 2005 Short films 100min
Directors: Mait Laas (Estonia), Cristian Mungiu (Romania), Nadejda Koseva (Bulgaria), Jasmina Zbanic (Bosnia), Kornel Mundruczo (Hungary), Stefan Arsenijevic (Serbia)
Some of the most talented directors in Central and Eastern Europe come together to bring you six stories of utter tenderness and complexity.
The film allows the directors to interpret the idea of ‘generation.’ Each of the short films (four features, a documentary and an animation framing the whole film) challenges your idea of the post-communist generation in that part of the world. The powerful stories stay with you long after the 10 or so minutes. You will find gentle humour, drama, turmoil, nostalgia and resilience in this cinematic journey to the other Europe.
There is the touching clumsiness and attachment of a young girl for her unlikely pet turkey, a major life event celebrated across continents, cultures and generations, and two Hungarian siblings confronting their past after their mother dies.
The perfect showcase of vibrant new wave cinema from Eastern Europe.
