Beautiful Beings by Guðmundur Guðmundsson comes from Iceland. It is a peculiar drama about coming-of-age and other Icelandic demons. The boy called Addi lives with his mother. He spends most of his time hanging out with a bunch of young misfits. When Balli, who is bullied by other kids, joins the group, things will escalate in an unexpected direction.

There will also be a Croatian treat! Arsen Oremović’s The Head of a Big Fish continues its tour after a successful premiere in Pula, where its lead actress Lana Barić won a Golden Arena.
