- Wind, Talk to Me won best film at the Adriatic Film & TV Awards on Saturday evening at Porto Montenegro in Tivat, Montenegro.
- Stefan Djordjevic won best director, while the film also took the best debut film award.
- Wind, Talk to Me was described by Variety as weaving fact, fiction and memory into a “heart-bursting tribute” to Djordjevic’s late mother; the review followed its world premiere in Rotterdam Film Festival’s Tiger competition.
- Dragana Jovović produced “Wind, Talk to Me,” the documentary-drama that took the event’s best-film award.
- Noomi Rapace won best actress for “Mother” by Teona Strugar Mitevska; Andrija Kuzmanović won best actor for “Yugo Florida” by Vladimir Tagić, and Hana Jušić won best screenplay for “God Will Not Help.”
- The Hollow was named best TV series, while Snežana Vidović and Feđa Štukan won the series acting awards.
- Film and TV Academy of the Adriatic Region counted more than 800 members—all film and television professionals—who voted on the nominations and eventual winners.
Why it matters: Djordjevic’s debut, produced by Jovović, took three honors for a film about his late mother, giving its documentary-fiction form broad recognition. More than 800 film and television professionals voted on the nominations and winners, making the best-film result a broad regional industry choice rather than the verdict of a small jury.
