Subtitled T-days: 'The High Sun' & 'A Bigger Splash'
During the summer, every Tuesday and Thursday screenings at Cinema Europa's main hall will have English subtitles next to the Croatian. This is a chance for our growing international audience in the unique setting of Zagreb's 90-year-old cinema in Varšavska 3 to see our non-English-speaking regular releases on the big screen.
On July 26th (Tuesday) at 8 pm our program 'Subtitled T-days' will present 'The High Sun' (orig. Croatian title: 'Zvizdan') and on July 28th (Thursday) at 6:30 pm 'A Bigger Splash' (Croatian title: 'Rasprskavanje') .
'The High Sun' premiered in the Un Certain Regard section at the 2015 Cannes Film Festival (as the first Croatian feature film to be chosen since the independence of Croatia) winning the Jury Prize. The film shines a light on three love stories, set in three consecutive decades, in two neighbouring Balkan villages with a long history of inter-ethnic hatred. It is a film about the fragility – and intensity – of forbidden love. "Matanic’s strongest film to date" (Variety) has been selected as the Croatian entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 88th Academy Awards.
'A Bigger Splash' is a dazzling, sensuous portrait of desire, jealousy and rock'n'roll under the Mediterranean sun, directed by Luca Guadagnino ('I Am Love') and starring Tilda Swinton, Ralph Fiennes, Dakota Johnson and Matthias Schoenaerts.
