At this year's Sarajevo Film Festival, UNIQA, as the main sponsor and official insurer of the Festival, presented a series of interesting, inspiring, and interactive events and activations.
The UNIQA Pavilion in the Festival Garden was the ultimate meeting and entertainment spot during the Festival. We are especially proud that this year, for the first time, the podcast "UNIQA Small Film Talks," hosted by renowned regional actor and TV host Tarik Filipović, was recorded exclusively. 🎙️
The first episode of the UNIQA Podcast features a conversation with Jovan Marjanović, Director of the Sarajevo Film Festival, and Adel Bahtanović, President of the UNIQA SEE Region.
Jovan and Adel shared inspiring stories about their first meeting which resulted in UNIQA's sponsorship of the Festival, as well as the numerous contents and new festival locations that emerged from it – the UNIQA Summer Cinema Stari Grad, with doubled capacity for twice the enjoyment of film screenings, the UNIQA Studio, the UNIQA Quiz, and many others. 🎬
In the second episode of the UNIQA Podcast 'Small Film Talks,' our host Tarik Filipović spoke with three promising second-year Production students from the Academy of Performing Arts in Sarajevo: Emilija Novaković, Lucija Sesartić, and Tarik Pobrić. 🎙️
The three of them are part of the production team that, with the support of their mentors, is working on shooting a remake of the film "Whirlpool" (Vrtlog) by director Hajrudin Šiba Krvavac. UNIQA provided the financial means to complete this project, thereby showing support for the young talents who are shaping the future of domestic cinema.
UNIQA supports stories worth telling and gives a voice to the generations bringing positive change to society.
In the third episode of the UNIQA podcast "Small Film Talks," we had the great pleasure of hosting two exceptional figures from the Bosnian and regional film scene: Aida Begić, a renowned director and screenwriter, recipient of numerous domestic and international awards, as well as Mirsad Purivatra, founder of the Sarajevo Film Festival and director of Slano Film Days.
Our guests, together with host Tarik Filipović, engaged in an inspiring conversation about the strength, perseverance, and creativity of women in film, with special focus on the Female Filmmakers Support Programme – a unique initiative launched and supported by the UNIQA SEE FUTURE Foundation.
