Dear friends:
Tickets are on sale for The Seventh Annual Bosnian-Herzegovinian Film
Festival (BHFF™), which will take place Friday, May 14 and Saturday,
May 15 at Tribeca Cinemas (54 Varick Street in New York City). They
will be available online at BHFF Program page
(http://www.bhffnyc.org/html/program2010.htm) for all screenings until
4:00 pm, May 14. Remaining tickets can be purchased at Tribeca Cinemas
immediately before each screening on a first-come, first-serve basis.
The Bosnian-Herzegovinian Film Festival (BHFF™) will screen eight
films from many corners of the world, including Bosnia and
Herzegovina, Croatia, Germany, Denmark, Netherlands, Australia, United
Kingdom and United States. The selection of films includes the U.S.
premieres of “One more tonight,“ portraying the tragic death of a
Somalian cabbie and a family man in Melbourne, and “Anyone,“ a poetic
reflection on Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Other films showcased at BHFF 2010 explore various topics: the
struggle to prosecute war criminals (“The Storm“); coming back home
only to find another refugee living there (“The Ruin“); the aftermath
of violence in Bosnia and Herzegovina throgh the prism of railway
travel (“The Reed Trains“); sevdah as an emotional, musical, lyrical
and visual journey through the soul of Bosnia (“Sevdah“); the secrets
surrounding one of New York City's dwellings (“Apparition“) and the
ancient pyramids in a small town in Bosnia (“Buried Land“). A number
of films have been praised at other film festivals around the globe.
Full program and film descriptions are available at
http://www.bhffnyc.org/html/program2010.htm.
The Bosnian-Herzegovinian Film Festival will also feature a Q&A with
filmmakers Sabina Vajrača (“Apparition“), Amir Husak (“The Reed
Trains“) and director Geoffrey Alan Rhodes and other team members from
“Buried Land.”
We will conclude the film festival with the awards ceremony and
closing party – please stay tuned for more information and check our
website often for updates.
