The film brought him the award in the Un Certain Regard category of the Cannes Film Festival and was also included in the Kings and Queens section of the Liffe festival.
Liberté Liberté
A forest at night. Three libertines, expelled from the puritan court of Louis XVI, run into the legendary German seducer and freethinker, the Duke of Walchen. Their mission is to export libertinage, a philosophy based on rejecting all moral restraints and authorities but above all, to find a safe place to indulge in their misguided games.

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.
