Shanghai Gypsy Filming Screening
A colourful and comical saga spanning four generations, related by Belmondo, the boy who becomes a gypsy king, and constructs his own village, “Shanghai”, against the rise and fall of the Yugoslav Republic.
Shanghai Gypsy is the most expensive Slovenian film ever made, involving the creation of huge sets near Maribor for this acclaimed adaptation of novelist Feri Lainscek's greatest literary success, and drawing on acting and musical talents from across the region. Some of the film’s sequences were also shot in Trieste, Italy. Shanghai Gypsy won Best Film at the South-East European Film Festival, Paris, in 2013
The film screening was introduced by director Marko Nabersnik (Best Screenplay Award, World Film Festival, Montreal) and Visar Vishka (Best Actor, FestFilmKosova), and followed by a Q&A session moderated by BBC broadcaster Phillip Bergson.
