🎬 Let's Check Out Fantastic Zagreb Film Festival: The Holy Boy + Our discussion

The opening film Imposters was absolutely amazing. If you love cinema, don't miss out on the offerings at antastic Zagreb Film Festival!

We’ll be experiencing the film at the amazing outdoor Tuškanac Summer Stage (Prilaz Ante Peterlića 1). Tucked away right in the woods near the city center, it’s easily one of the most beautiful starlit, open-air cinema spots you'll find.

Looking for a gripping psychological thriller with a folk-horror edge? We’re diving into The Holy Boy (La valle dei sorrisi), a striking Italian-Slovenian film directed by Paolo Strippoli.

🔹 Variety review:
"Under cover of an enjoyably eerie horror movie, director Paolo Strippoli investigates the dangers of displaced grief in a secretive Italian village where no one is ever in any pain."

🏆 6 awards and 9 nominations

🔹 Please note: I’m not affiliated with the festival or the film—just a fellow film enthusiast!

🔹 Meet 9:10PM by the box office if you'd like to chat before the film. Or seek me out after the screening.

At the screening, I'll be sitting in the front row, but feel free to sit anywhere you'd like! After the film, let's meet up by the box office first and find a nearby bench or cafe for our own meetup discussion to dive into the twists and share our thoughts.

🔹 Please secure your own ticket ahead of time!
