Dobra djeca

Good Children
Directed by
2024

 Sadness felt by the heart, and a feeling of alienation in the soul: their mother has passed away. Now the parental home has to be cleared. For the daughter and son, themselves now grown old, a journey into the past, amidst the removal boxes and the thousands of leftover objects, begins. Only slowly do they grow closer again. (Festival information, Cottbus 2024)

We were impressed by the unagitated und quiet presenting of different approaches to grieve together with the sounds of the house and nature, which repeatedly dissolved into silence. That created a unique atmosphere. We were also struck by the complex sibling relationship on the one hand, which at the same time was reflected in the simplicity of the visual and cinematic language.
