by Serbian director Srdan Golubović has been awarded the 2020 Antigone d'Or courtesy of a jury presided over by the French director and slammer Grand Corps Malade, thereby declared the Best Feature Film of the 42nd Montpellier Mediterranean Film Festival. Written by the director in league with Ognjen Svilicic, the story plunges the viewer into a small town in Serbia. A labourer and a father to two children, Nikola finds himself forced to hand the latter over to the care of social services when poverty and hunger drive his wife to commit a desperate act. They will be placed in foster care until Nikola is in a position to provide his children with the conditions they need to thrive. When Nikola learns the local authorities are corrupt, he decides to cross the whole of Serbia on foot to plead his case to the national ministry in Belgrade… Unveiled in the Berlinale’s Panorama section (where it bagged itself the Audience Award), this co-production uniting the likes of Serbia (Film House Bas Celic), France (ASAP Films), Germany (Neue Mediopolis), Croatia (Propeler Film) and Bosnia (SSCA/PRO.BA) is sold worldwide by The Match Factory.
