Paterson is a bus driver in the eponymous city of Paterson, New Jersey. Every day he drives his route, observing the city as it drifts across his windshield. He writes his poetry, walks his dog, stops in a bar for his daily beer, then goes home to Laura. Jarmusch quietly observes the triumphs and defeats of daily life, along with the poetry of its smallest details. “His latest film takes its good, sweet time working its way into your mind and heart. But when it does, you're a goner.” - Rolling Stone.

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.
