The Sarajevo Film Festival has launched a new program dedicated to the legacy of Hungarian filmmaker Béla Tarr, who died this year.
The Béla Tarr in Sarajevo Tribute program will focus on the work of former students from the Film Factory in Sarajevo, an innovative educational initiative set up by Tarr in 2013.
The lineup this year includes Valdimar Jóhannsson’s “Lamb,” which won the Un Certain Regard’s Prize of Originality at Cannes Film Festival.
It also includes Bianca Lucas’ “Love Dog,” which was at Locarno Film Festival, where it got a special mention in the best first feature contest.
Additionally, there is Pilar Palomero’s “Motherhood,” which won best leading performance for Carla Quílez at San Sebastián Film Festival.
