A colorful and comical saga spanning four generations, narrated 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 in Paris "SEE a Paris" in 2013.
Please join us on Wednesday 29 January at 18.30 in the EBRD auditorium, with welcoming drinks from 17.30. The screening will be followed by a wine tasting sponsored by the Slovenian winery, Hlebec.
The film screening will be introduced by director Marko Nabersnik (Best SEE Film at SEE a Paris Film Festival and Best Screenplay Award, World Film Festival, Montreal) and Visar Vishka (Best Actor, Fest Film Kosova), and followed by a Q&A session moderated by BBC broadcaster Phillip Bergson.
