»Luzar sets what is primarily a Slovenian milieu study in Austria, located somewhere between the black and white of Miloš Forman's Firemen's Ball and the bitter humour of Ulrich Seidl.«
- Film Festival Cottbus.
Orchestra Orkester
The merry members of a brass band from Slovenia travel by bus to perform in a small Austrian town. They sing, cheer and drink all the way there. Being part of a brass band is a joyful hobby for most members. However, not everything goes as planned… Five distinct stories tell us that hiding one’s actions and intentions is the best way to make them shameful.

The Secret Agent O agente secreto
Kleber Mendonça Filho
Tuesday, 24. 02. 2026 / 20:10 / Main Hall
Kleber Mendonça Filho (Aquarius) vividly conjures the colours, smells and sounds of 1970s Brazil – a time “when the walls had ears and any movement could be suspicious”. The Secret Agent is an unpredictable and witty political thriller, but above all, a loving portrait of a place and its people. Winner of Best Director and Best Actor at Cannes, as well as Best Actor (Drama) and Best Non-English Language Film at the Golden Globe Awards.
