Metod Pevec / Slovenia / 2015 / 82 min / Bosnian, Slovene

The five-storied block of flats, built as a hall of residence for construction workers, is today inhabited by men who came from Bosnia as young adults, worked in Slovenia for thirty years as construction workers and were left stranded after the construction companies had gone bankrupt. Young people from dysfunctional families have occupied the first floor, which also houses dislodged people searching for the cheapest lodgings they can find. Most of them have only a bed; nobody calls this place their home. Apart from being socially marginalised, the dwellers have another thing in common: stories. 

Metod Pevec moved into a former workers’ residence and shot the documentary about its current occupants single-handedly, without the aid of a film crew.

“All the press was ever interested in was simply a phenomenon. Say, the exploitation of workers. Their stories were written beforehand. The protagonists of media stories tend to be villains, in our case tycoon directors, the workers were cast in minor or even illustrative roles. My aim was the polar opposite. I was interested in people, the inhabitants of this residence, their feelings, their disillusionment, their proletarian failure, in a word, the human dimension.” (Metod Pevec)

Bong Joon Ho

Six years after Parasite, Korean director Bong Joon-ho is back with another biting satire (this time set in the distant future) with Robert Pattinson shining in the leading role(s). Its unlikely hero, Mickey Barnes, has found himself in the extraordinary circumstance of working for an employer who demands the ultimate commitment to the job… to die, for a living. »Combining the best parts of Snowpiercer and Okja into something new, this warm and wonderful film suggests that Bong loves people even more than he hates capitalism.« – IndieWire.

Materialists Materialists

Celine Song

Monday, 25. 08. 2025 / 18:00 / Main Hall

Lucy works at a high-end matchmaking company trying to pair up moneyed entrepreneurs with elite bachelors and bachelorettes. When she meets Harry at the wedding of two of her successfully paired clients, she immediately knows that this ‘unicorn’ would be a perfect catch for a lot of her customers. But Harry is more interested in Lucy. And then her ex suddenly shows up… As we could expect from the director of Past Lives, Materialists is not exactly a romantic comedy about a matchmaker torn between two suitors, but rather a lucid examination of the contradictions of love and dating.
