Isola Cinema 03 took off!
Now it’s official. The festival has been launched and if there’s one thing we can’t complain about, it’s the weather. It was actually warm, can you believe it? No blankets or any other stuff, to make up for the dropping degrees. As the preparations have taken place in the last several days, it’s probably best you visit our web gallery (it’s on the Slovene page, but we’ll let the pics speak for themselves) to check the happenings and the team effort yourselves.
But anyway, long story short: we are delighted to be able to bragg once more that the Open air Cinema on the Manzioli square was packed to the last chair - again! The opening of the festival started as the head tribesmen, Nina Peče and Vlado Škafar, invited all the festival guests to the stage on the Manzioli square, to present them to the audience. After a brief and collective cultural exchange we were ready to see Nacer Khemir’s personal restitution of islamic dignity, followed by Werner Herzogs sci-fi fantasy The wild blue Yonder.
Oh, and you can take a wild guess about the subsequent ramblings on the Izola beach yourselves.
