Lost Country

Streaming video - 2023

Set in Serbia during the 1996 protests against Slobodan Milošević’s regime, 'Lost Country' is a deeply personal coming-of-age drama by Vladimir Perišić, inspired by his own experiences. Fifteen-year-old Stefan (Jovan Ginić, winner of the Rising Star Award at Cannes Critics’ Week) faces a profound internal conflict as his peers rise against Milošević’s Socialist Party and his mother (Jasna Đuričić), a spokesperson for the government, becomes a symbol of corruption. Amid growing protests over electoral fraud, Stefan must reconcile his love for his mother with the mounting awareness of her complicity. Premiering to acclaim at Cannes and featured in New Directors/New Films, 'Lost Country' crafts a poignant po...rtrait of generational and moral reckoning, blending historical insight with personal reflection.
