At the International Film Festival Kino Otok \u2013 Isola Cinema, the traditional June plans were crossed by exceptional circumstances this year as well. Therefore, another extraserial festival of film creativity and inspiring socializing in Izola will take place at the end of the summer, between the 25th\u00a0<\/sup>and 29th\u00a0<\/sup>of August 2021. Before and after, the festival program will also visit Ljubljana and several places in southwestern Slovenia. As a counterpoint to the countless uncertainties and changes of the last year and a half, Kino Otok will welcome audiences of all ages and winds as a reliable film constant: with a fresh selection of top film and accompanying program, in the company of filmmakers and an invitation to spread views on film, art, culture, society and life in general.<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n

Alfred Hitchcock and Jimmy Barka Experience \u2013 a unique silent film experience with live music <\/strong><\/p>\n

At the festival in Izola we will present the unique experience of screening a silent feature film with live music. The classic The Tenant will be screened at the open-air cinema (The Lodger: A Story of the London Fog, 1926<\/strong>) by the legendary Alfred Hitchcock<\/strong> with live music by local masters, the eclectic trio Jimmy Barka Experience<\/strong>, consisting of DJs Borka and Bakto, and drummer and percussionist Marjan Stani\u0107. The feature film tells the story of life in London during the \u201cepidemic\u201d of serial killer Jack the Ripper. It is a dizzying slide of passion, suspicion, jealousy, mystery and fear. The silent Hitchcock\u2019s masterpiece already establishes many stylistic and content obsessions of the following works of the film giant and reveals his extravagant and witty view of the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sanremo<\/strong> by Bosnian-Slovenian author Miroslav Mandi\u0107<\/strong> is a gentle film about Bruno, who lives a life shrouded in mists of memories and oblivion in a home for the elderly. With a simple and poetic narrative, the director accurately outlines the feelings of memory loss through the veil of which the bright rays of friendship and love penetrate. The oasis<\/strong> of Serbian author Ivan Iki\u0107<\/strong> is a story about a love triangle that takes place in an institution for young people with special needs. It is an explosive outburst of detail that weaves the tangible substance of life. The director\u2019s method of working with naturalists who play fictional characters, unobtrusively elevates the banal nuances of everyday life into the spheres of poetry and truth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We build bridges between film and other creativity: Robida magazine<\/strong><\/p>\n

Among the many accompanying contents that will enrich and enliven the program of the 17th Kino Otok film screenings in Izola, we highlight the Kino Otok residence of the Slovenian-Italian magazine for culture and art Robida<\/strong>. The editorial board of the magazine is based in the village of Topolove\u00a0<\/strong>in Veneto, on the border between Slovenia and Italy, where the unique Topolove Station has been operating for decades. Over the years Robida has developed into a diverse project of a group of young artists who are wondering about the possibilities of working and living on the outskirts, organizing joint campaigns for cleaning abandoned stone terraces, organizing workshops and residences for young artists and constantly looking for new ideas and collaborations.At the 17th Kino Otok, the magazine\u2019s employees in the pop-up editorial office in the Solar Hall of JSKD Izola, will present in various ways their work so far and above all, they will collect and research materials for the new issue of the magazine, which will be dedicated to the topic of Kino Otok.<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n
