Moj Beograd - My Belgrade
1

10 min

Color

After a sixteen year absence, Maša returns to Belgrade, the city of her childhood. Although she was only nine years old when she left Belgrade, the comeback evokes repressed feelings and memories of some key events that have changed her and her mother’s life. It is a story of continues emigration from one country to another in the hope of finding justice. It is a film about memories, emigration and the search for a life of dignity. Three stories intertwine, that of the author, Maša, her mother’s colleague, and Maša’s nanny, and through them emerges the story of a city which forced a small two-member family into exile.
