We are happy to share the news! The Association of Slovenian Filmmakers has announced that it has selected Sonja Prosenc‘s The Tree as the country’s submission for the Best Foreign-language Film Academy Award. (Cineuropa)
Told from three points of view, this riveting family tragedy is the acclaimed feature debut from director Sonja Prosenc. A mother and her two sons live cloistered in their own home. But what is it about the outside world they fear? As each piece of the puzzle comes together, this gripping chamber drama moves towards its shattering climax with the inevitability of a Greek drama. Winner of awards at several international festivals, The Tree masterfully maintains an air of steadily mounting tension as its mystery unfolds. (Museum of the moving image New York)
The Tree, a debut feature by Sonja Prosenc, will be presented at Pula Film Festival in competition program. The screening is scheduled on Sunday 19th July. The festival will take place 18th-25th July.
