Palić European Film Festival

Published by:

The film festival in Palić, Serbia, amongst others will feature the movie “Three thousand numbered parts” by Adam Časi. The movie is based on a theatre play, directed by Časi, staged in Budapest and then moved to Berlin. Supported by the Open Society Foundation, the creative team composed exclusively of Roma has been working together for the sixth year in the desire to educate marginalized Roma through artistic activity. Roma boys and girls act, sing, dance, satirically referring to their own painful life stories, continuous traumas and experiences that left scars on their hands. Cruel, seasoned with dark humour, a political film against injustice, prejudice, discrimination and racism towards the Roma – the largest European minority.
