“What a breath of fresh air! It’s a precious, precious, very simple but very touching movie.” – Ang Lee. “As warming as hot soup on a frosty winter’s day, Lunana feels like a timely tale for pandemic-weary audiences, who should embrace a film that explores a longing for a more authentic, meaningful existence.”
– Screen Daily

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.
