Competition Programme

Listen
A foreign woman in a burqa brings her young son to a Copenhagen police station to file a complaint against her abusive husband, but the translator seems unwilling to convey the true meaning of her words. A tense, diamond-hard film about cultural isolation and bureaucratic ignorance.

Art
Two film directors agree that they have found the perfect 13-year-old girl to star in their new movie. Now, they have to convince the reluctant mother to let her daughter play the role of a sexually abused child.

S
Set in London, a raw and uncompromising docudrama about an Eastern-European sex worker and her pimp. A politically and socially conscious account of one of the most worrying phenomena in 21st-century Europe, it concentrates on two individuals and their soul-killing love-hate relationship.

The Runner
The first breath is a decision. Each subsequent breath is a struggle for a goal that’s still out of sight. A struggle for life. He is a former professional runner. A marathon runner. He reveals his suffering, pain and effort, the crucial elements of each and every race.

Apparitions
An investigation into the issue of appearances, what they are or might be. A cinematic documentation of the verbs ‘appear’ and ‘disappear’. A collage-like short film, an associative definition, a visual thought-process, the physics of illusion.

What's On

I'm Still Here Ainda Estou Aqui

Walter Salles

Thursday, 31. 07. 2025 / 21:30 / The Ljubljana Castle

Rio de Janeiro, early 1970s. The Paiva family live a full and happy life in a house by the beach. One day, however, everything is turned upside-down when the military junta abducts the father. Director Walter Salles (Central Station, The Motorcycle Diaries) based his heartbreaking film on memoirs written by the son of the seven-member family. »An engrossing, affecting tribute to a formidable woman and her family.« – Screen Daily. »A gripping, profoundly touching film with a deep well of pathos. It’s one of Salles’ best.« – The Hollywood Reporter. Oscar for Best International Feature Film.

Nosferatu Nosferatu

Robert Eggers

Friday, 01. 08. 2025 / 21:30 / The Ljubljana Castle

In September 1924, one of the greatest masterpieces of the silent era, F.W. Murnau’s Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror, was shown in a cinema on Kolodvorska Street. One hundred years later, Kinodvor presents a new version of the expressionist classic as envisioned by Robert Eggers.

Materialists Materialists

Celine Song

Saturday, 02. 08. 2025 / 21:30 / The Ljubljana Castle

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.
