The networking and workshop event, which unspools from 10-14 March in Bratislava, will welcome Costa-Gavras, Eddy Joseph, Paweł Edelman, Jim Stark and Molly Malene Stensgaard as guest lecturers. The Visegrad Film Forum (Vff) in Bratislava is one of those glocal – focused on local production but boasting a global perspective and ambition – events that entice guests with their exciting atmosphere and rock-solid programme.

The five-day gathering, the ninth edition of which starts on 10 March, this year offers a diverse array of lecturers – ranging from a director and an editor to a DoP. They are: helmer Costa-Gavras; sound editor Eddy Joseph, who has worked on Bond films (Casino Royale) as well as musicals (Pink Floyd: The...
“We were taught to have an undying love for the people, we were taught to serve the people mind, body, and spirit.” — Interview with former Black Panther Jamal Joseph In 1968, 15-year-old Eddie Joseph was on the cusp of graduating high school. But, like many of his young contemporaries, his eye was caught by the burgeoning Black Panther Party. This group, which advocated for armed self-defense against police harassment, was founded in 1966 in Oakland, California, and was beginning to gain serious national traction. Operating from the basis of an ambitious and attractive 10-point program (point 1: “We want freedom. We want power to determine the destiny of our black community”), the...
