Synopsis
The Birdbreeder is a story about Ivo, a trader in birds, who suddenly loses his wife Ana while buying an old family home. Before she died, Ana, a composer, was working on a score for Erich von Stroheim’s silent debut Blind Husbands to celebrate its centenary. When Ivo decides to finish Ana’s score and starts preparing an unusual wake for her in the house where she died, life takes a turn for him and his family.
Director
Director's statement
I was fascinated by the research into the specific mental state that establishes itself when reality becomes a burden and fiction assumes the function of grounding.

Scenografija oblikuje izčiščeno likovnost. Prostor in celoten film se spretno sprehajata med sanjami, spomini in stvarnostjo. Scenografijo odlikujejo podobe drobnih predmetov, ki nam pripovedujejo svoje zgodbe. Z minimalnimi sredstvi avtor suvereno sestavi močno vizualnost tega zelo posebnega filma.

Ivo, ljubitelj in preprodajalec ptičev, oče dveh fantov, po smrti svoje žene zboli za posttravmatsko stresno motnjo. Avtor skuša upodobiti njegovo podoživljanje stresnega dogodka, saj imajo »bolniki« občutek, kot da se je stvar dogajala izven njih »kot na filmu«. Izvirna ideja z zanimivo dramaturško strukturo, v kateri se prepletata resničnost in fikcija.
Režiser ima ustrezno univerzitetno izobrazbo filmske smeri. Njegovo delo na avdiovizualnem ali drugem kulturnem področju je odmevno. V režijskem konceptu se režiser osredotoči na splošno predstavitev različnih vidikov svoje poetike, vendar pri tem podrobneje ne predstavi detajlov na katere se sklicuje. Kljub temu zasnova vizualne podobe, scenografije in filmskih lokacij skupaj z jasnimi filmskimi referencami in kadriranjem, nakazujejo dognan eksperimentalni projekt. Avtor v režijski viziji jasno opredeli svoje osnovno izhodišče, po katerem želi s svojo filmsko pripovedjo gledalca usmeriti k temam in vsebinam, o katerih bo lahko začel razmišljati in o katerih si bo ustvaril mnenje. Pri tem je bolj od razumevanja in vedenja pomembno odkrivanje in osebnostno potovanje, ki poskuša osmisliti narativne vrzeli oziroma tisto, kar v pripovedi ostaja skrito in nerazumljeno. Gre za film o vtisu, ki ga dogodek vzpodbudi in ne za film o dogodku.
