Overview
In Jugoslovenska Kinoteka, Shira Wolfe moves between cinematic poetry, dream sequences and memoir to describe a period of her life spent in Belgrade and traversing the Balkans – from Sarajevo to the Bay of Kotor, from Stara Planina to Mount Avala. Most of all, it is an ode to the Belgrade of her past and the relationships she formed there, constellating around that city and continuously reappearing elsewhere in encounters fuelled by synchronicity. In her world, cities become smells; statues can be read; and the boundaries between art and life, between self and other, are always blurred. Jugoslovenska Kinoteka will be published as a bilingual edition in English and Serbian.
