Memento International has boarded Vladimir Perisic’s Serbian film “Lost Country” which will have its world premiere at Cannes’Set in Serbia in 1996, “Lost Country” unfolds during the student demonstrations against the Milosevic regime. Story follows 15-year-old Stefan who has to confront his beloved mother, spokesperson and accomplice of the corrupted government that his friends are rising against.
“Through this story, I wanted to explore the fragility of the human ability to admit reality, to accept it without reservations. This ability often falls short, especially when it concerns our loved ones,” said Perisic. “Thus, the character of Stefan leads alone, in the heat of events, the hardest revolution of all: to accept the unacceptable and face the reality of the world he comes from, of his family. And for a boy, the pain is all the more intense when it involves his own mother.
Memento International said “the first feedbacks are tremendously positive for this moving portrait of a mother-son relationship.” Vladimir Perisic depicts Stefan’s dilemma and shame in such a delicate directing style, enabling the audience to truly connect to his emotions.”
