POV (Subjektivna)

Anja Koprivšek

The starting point of POV is a commisioned format: the director is tasked with making a film about last year’s edition of ZagrebDox, without it turning into a standard festival chronicle. Instead of an objective overview of events and films, she needs to make a film from her own point of view - to make something personal. But is a revamped festival chronicle really a place where personality can shine through? The film follows her attempt to showcase the traces the festival has left on her - through films she has seen, accidental encounters, floating thoughts. In a flurry of social anxiety, entertainment and general unpredictability, we get an idea of what it is like to experience a documentary film festival, and what stays with us when it is all over.
