»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.«

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 second feature film from Hana Jušić (Quit Staring at My Plate) is a darkly poetic neo-Western about a mysterious Chilean woman who brings unrest to a traditional Croatian shepherding community at the beginning of the 20th century.
