Bird Atlas
Directed by Olmo Omerzu
An ageing proprietor of a technology company (Miroslav Donutil) has dedicated his whole life to his work, so it comes as a big blow when things suddenly start to fall apart at the seams. Olmo Omerzu’s new film relies on persuasive character acting and his special brand of gentle irony to demonstrate that, in order to preserve our dignity, we occasionally need to lose face in the eyes of others.

“Audaciously and memorably dipping into magical realism by giving the eponymous avians an oddball quasi-choric function, the co-production could finally deliver Omerzu (himself Slovenian) the international breakthrough that has been looming since his impressive 2012 mid-lengther A Night Too Young. (…) Warm responses from juries, audiences and critics could then conceivably pave the way for theatrical distribution in receptive territories. SCREEN
