Wind, Talk to Me
(Vetre, pričaj sa mnom)
- Stefan Djordjevic
- Serbia, Slovenia, Croatia
Returning to his family’s country home for his grandmother’s birthday, filmmaker Stefan Djordjević brings along his camera, hoping to complete a film he’d be making about his mother—a project tragically interrupted by her passing. While en route on the rainsoaked back roads, he accidentally hits a stray dog. Guilt-ridden, he decides to bring her along and nurse her back to health.
Enlisting the help of his family to play themselves, Djordjevic blends footage of his late mother with staged, modern-day scenes of his relatives’ remembrances to create an intimate, tender tribute to her life and memory. Featuring a winning cast of characters, and an impeccable canine performance, all set against the backdrop of the bucolic Serbian backwoods, Wind, Talk to Me is a vulnerable, moving work of docufiction that reflects, remembers, and grieves through its art.
