Vrtinec
The first program that will be available between 21st and 28th of March, features mainly fiction works by Nataša Prosenc Stearns but also offers a glimpse into the beginnings of her work. We start with the oldest work, You Don't Know Me from 1989, produced by TV Sarajevo, and continue with There – Fram Waterfall, produced by the Children and Youth Programme of RTV Slovenia, where Nataša Prosenc - as well as many other videographers - worked at the beginning of the 1990s, for example in the cultural program Osmi dan (Eighth Day). The film Morning corresponds with Evening, which will be screened at the premiere evening at the Slovenian Cinematheque, as together they form a diptych that speaks about human loneliness, once from the position of a woman (Evening), the other from the position of a man (Morning). We conclude with three feature films that Nataša Prosenc Stearns - like she did with Morning - shot in the USA, thematizing the dysfunctionality of the healthcare system (Waiting Room), the ubiquity of the market in interpersonal relations (Our Twenty Minutes), and a portrait of the dysfunctional perspective from the child's point of view of a girl celebrating her birthday (Surprise).
You Don't Know Me
The dance floor and the dancers, along with the woman who learns to dance by following their steps, symbolize two worlds and two generations that are in contrast to each other.
There – Fram Waterfall
This video can be viewed as a video fairy-tale: it contains all the elements of one. The happening takes place in a forest. We see a dwarf that never shows its face, but on its travels it often encounters other incredible beings.
Morning
When solitude becomes too painful, we start imagining things.The film project Alone Together consists of two short films, Morning and Evening, whose stories unwind between reality and imagination.
Waiting Room
The atmosphere among the random patients in the waiting room at their personal doctor's office on Christmas Eve. The regular patients must wait, while more important partners, celebrities, and acquaintances of the doctors enter the office ahead of the line. The dissatisfaction among those waiting intensifies.
Our Twenty Minutes
A couple’s privacy is invaded by a door to door sales person. Together with incoming calls and text messages, the distractions are escalating. Will they be able to savor their intimate twenty minutes?
Surprise
A girl copes with dysfunctional parents. Based on a short story by Lili Potpara.
