Congratulations to all the award winners and see you in 2018, from 27 to 30 of September!

A sad day for our two juries! After three days of a frenzied surge of impressions, international and critics' jury members now have to sit down, activate the little grey cells, decipher their notes written in a hand tormented by stereoscopic effects, articulate their thoughts and make sober decisions on this year's festival winners.

If at the end of a working week you're holding your head in your hands, slapping your cheeks to bring back colour and wondering what the devil is holding you by the neck and suck the precious creative energy out of you, then you are in the same pickle as the title protagonist of the cinematically transgender piece The Lost Dreams of Naoki Hayawaka, also borrowing the name to today's Jury's Choice slot (SC Cinema, 4pm). 

As our festival story steps into its second day, Oona Mosna, programmer at Media City Film Festival in Ontario, begins her new daily story cycle. At 4pm, SC Cinema's floor will be taken by our grand jury members to present a three-day triptych, a sort of audiovisual mixtape of different genres and ideas. 

Welcome to Student centre at 6pm and Croatian program Reflexes, festival opening and Competition program 1 at 8pm, and a double expanded cinema performances at 10pm. See you there! 

On Wednesday we start with a film workshop by OJOBOCA. Ojoboca is a story of two people who took the phrases 'filmmaking' and 'film work' very liberally and opted for an archaic method of film production to materialise projections of the present real and imaginary (is there a difference between the two?) worlds as feverish visions of the future of mankind.
