17.00 BENEATH OUR WINDOWS
Serbia, 2021, 88′
Director: Slobodanka Radun, Vladislava Vojnović

The story of the South Banat Czech minority in Serbia 200 years after leaving the motherland. People and their destinies, identity as a process, not an unchangeable fact. Diligence, music and black humor are important factors of survival.

19.00 REPUBLIC OF SILENCE
Germany, France, Syria, Italy, Qatar, 2021, 183′
Director: Diana El Jeiroudi

Republic of Silence bears witness to a tragedy on an epic scale, accompanied by an ever-expanding mosaic of fragile, deeply embedded moments from Diana El Jeiroudi’s life, beginning with the memory from the age of seven when her father gives her a camera, right up to the present day. An orderly life in Berlin competes with a life in Damascus, which is ravaged by war.
