Scènes Met Mijn Vader

Biserka Šuran

In Scènes Met Mijn Vader (Scenes With My Father), filmmaker Biserka Šuran takes her father on a journey through the past in which she revives scenes from their homeland, former Yugoslavia. Memories are reflected in cinematic settings in which they have a conversation about nationality, identity, love, dreams and regrets. Love letters, archival material and anecdotes from family members give the audience insight into the trials the family went through when they had to leave their homeland. In this symbolic road trip, Biserka Šuran attempts to relate to her father’s experiences and inevitable choices, therapeutically healing wounds from the past through this path.
