Vetar

Wind

Tamara Drakulić
Serbia, 2016, 70 Min

Summer draws to a close in this work on first love, jealousy and sorrow at the passing of childhood. At the same time the film pays homage to an endangered Mediterranean nature reserve, the Bojana Delta, located in the border region between Albania and Montenegro. An atmospheric coming-of-age film complemented by wonderful landscape footage.

Sixteen-year-old Mina spends the summer with her father. Bored as she is the days pass her by, as she loses herself in existentialist monologues and lounges around either in her hammock or on the beach, utterly unimpressed by the numerous windsurfers and hippies who have made this their retreat. Though initially reluctant, she nevertheless succumbs to the appeal of Saša, himself currently in a relationship with extroverted Sonja. The trio soon find themselves caught up in a cycle of attraction, rejection, temptation and jealousy. In the process the sexual desires and childish longings of the protagonists are translated into a highly suggestive visual and body language: the result is a poetic choreography of tableau-like landscape imagery, with motion studies of grass in the wind and the graceful movements of the surfers giving a sense of the bittersweet boundlessness of the last summer of youth. Afterwards nothing will be the same as it was before. TB
