More than half a century long career of Bogdan \u017di\u017ei\u0107 is an example of a quest for the truth in a society where historical facts are so often twisted and discarded.<\/p>\n<p>\tIn his career \u017di\u017ei\u0107 directed a dozen feature-length fiction films, but he is best known by some one hundred documentary and short films he made. This doyen of documentary filmmaking has always been preoccupied with the topics like repression, morale of war victors and the dubious reliability of human memory. As regards memory, he made a film about the destruction of monuments to WWII partisans, Damnatio Memoriae, providing comprehensive evidence of this large-scale trend. His last film, Jasenovac Memento, marked \u017di\u017ei\u0107&#39;s return to the subject of the Ustashi concentration camp, presenting the chronology of the attrocities committed there.<\/p>\n<p>\tFifty Years Award is given in cooperation with Croatian Film Directors Guild.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fifty Years Award is given to those who persist and endure in the cinematography<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1761,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_view_id":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[47,40],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2199","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-mff-2017-en","category-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 -
