The Ship Brod

Elvis Lenić / Croatia / 2023 / 65 min / Croatian

After more than 160 years of existence, one of the largest Croatian shipyards, Uljanik, is closing down. The place where ships of impressive size and importance were manufactured and then sailed away has been turned into an industrial graveyard for wrecks, dysfunctional cranes and abandoned workshops that once teemed with life. Through a collage of observational footage, however, we now observe the almost post-apocalyptic landscape of the site. How did Pula's originally important Austro-Hungarian shipping empire come to an end?
