KENEDI SE ŽENI

KENEDI IS GETTING MARRIED

Želimir Žilnik
Serbia, 2007, 80 Min
Terra Film

Last part in a trilogy about Kenedi Hasani, a Rom deported from Germany to Serbia in 2002. Like other displaced persons of our times, his daily life is a struggle to survive. He gets by with changing sexual partners and marriage proposals – gay one time, straight the next – and ends up stranded in Istanbul, leaving a trail of debris in his wake. Scenes from the outposts of Europe, where lonely hearts and destitute heartbreakers scrape a living whatever way they can. A fiction filmed with a wobbly camera, but provocatively authentic all the same.

Želimir Žilnik - born 1942 in Novi Sad. A representative of the Yugoslav “Black Wave”. His socially engaged work provoked the authorities both in Yugoslavia, from where he was forced to emigrate in 1973, and in Germany, where he worked between 1973 to 1976. In recent years Žilnik has been primarily concerned with modern-day migrations of peoples within Europe.
