Jubilee 30 th Festival of European Film FESTIVAL

The jubilee 30 th edition of the Palić European Film Festival will take place from 15 th to 21 st July, while its rich pre-festival programme gets un- derway on the first day of July. This year’s festi- val is expected to welcome more than 150 film professionals from the country and abroad, and organisers are delighted to announce the arrival of Margarethe von Trotta, winner of the 2004 Aleksandar Lifka Award, which the Pal- ić European Film Festival awards to filmmakers in recognition of their outstanding contribution to European cinema. Margarethe von Trotta received the 2004 award together with Živo- rad Žika Mitrović, as the local laureate. As has been the case in previous years, the pre-festival programme will see films screened in five selections, enabling the au- dience to watch seven films within the scope of the Best of Europe and Europe4Kids pro- grammes. This will be immediately followed

by the Homage programme to laureates of the Aleksandar Lifka Award, with their works shown on the big screen of Subotica’s Euro- cinema, while a big screen mounted at the heart of Subotica will shows films within the scope of the Classics on the Square pro- gramme. More than 100 films will be shown in 11 selec- tions and programmes as part of the Festival’s official programme on the Summer Stage, at Palić’s Abazija Cinema and Subotica’s Euro- cinema and Aleksandar Lifka cinemas. This year’s Palić European Film Festival will again see the AFIFS awards presented for the best domestic film and the best film of Serbi- an minority production. Student film directors from Serbia will have an opportunity to pres- ent their works and speak with film experts from different fields who are official guests of the festival.
