Although we wanted to fill the city to the brim with our guests this year, that is unfortunately still not possible. In a time when the news from the National Civil Protection Directorate are followed with greater interest than the weather forecast (a very important factor in organizing evening screenings outdoors), sadly we still cannot talk about a return to our old way of life.
The last year has taught us a lot, but it mostly showed us that even if we were able to hold some part of our program in person, the exceptional number of visits to our online content has made sure “the digital” remains. Your commitment and desire to still hang out with us in the virtual world, although we’re far away, has left us breathless!
A year ago we had to come up with an online version of almost the entire festival overnight. This year we come prepared and we bring you new digital challenges. If possible, high school students from Karlovac will fill our improvised cinema in the Zorin dom theatre, but we will find out about that, just like the weather forecast, at the last minute.
Maybe next year we’ll be lucky and be able to properly return to our old ways – in the new version of the old Edison Cinema in Karlovac! Therefore, we repeat our greeting from last year – we hope to see you all in Karlovac next year and we send you real, non- epidemiological hugs!
