Once upon a time, there was a country on the back of a giant horse, but it was ruined by stupidity and greed.

Yet, the memory of the past is still vivid, and a new society is being born. Will the history repeat itself?

What's On

Late Shift Heldin

Petra Volpe

Tuesday, 17. 03. 2026 / 15:50 / Main Hall

Shot with the pacing and tension of a thriller, Late Shift follows a single night in the working life of a nurse in an overcrowded Swiss hospital. Both gripping and compassionate, the film is a tribute to the extraordinary people who stand by us in the most vulnerable moments of our lives.

Fiume o morte! Fiume o morte!

Igor Bezinović

Tuesday, 17. 03. 2026 / 17:00 / Small Hall

On 12 September 1919, a troop of some three hundred soldiers under the leadership of the flamboyant war-loving Italian poet Gabriele D’Annunzio swooped into the Northern-Adriatic port town of Fiume, now Rijeka, wanting to annex the city to Italy. Over the course of the next 16 months, during what is regarded as one of the most bizarre militant sieges of all time his official photography team captured over 10,000 images. A century later, Igor Bezinović orchestrates a direct-action history lesson focused on the siege and its modern-day implications.

Pompei: Below the Clouds Sotto le nuvole

Gianfranco Rosi

Tuesday, 17. 03. 2026 / 18:00 / Main Hall

The ruins that lie below – Pompeii, Herculaneum, long-submerged Roman villas – tell of a future that was buried by time. From these traces of history, memories of the subterranean world, in black and white, a lesser-known Naples emerges and fills with lives.
