Known for its expressive melodies and dazzling technical skill\, this musical tradition was carried to North America during waves of immigration in the late 19th and early 20th centuries\, where it flourished within close-knit communities. \nAt the heart of the performance is the evocative pairing of violin and cimbalom\, the shimmering hammered dulcimer that anchors many Eastern European Roma ensembles. The evening will feature romantic melodies alongside electrifying dance forms such as the csárdás and friss\, moving from soulful laments to thrilling\, high-energy finales. \nFollowing the concert\, guests can enjoy a lively reception with dancing\, traditional Hungarian food prepared by the Hungarian Scouts\, and a full bar. Advance tickets are strongly recommended.

When the choir travels to a countryside convent for a weekend retreat of intensive rehearsals\, Lucia navigates the unfamiliar surroundings\, complex teenage social structures\, and her own awakening sexuality. A series of initiations\, including an eye-opening experience with a handsome construction worker\, test Lucia’s friendship with Ana-Maria and the other girls\, as she begins to question her beliefs and disrupt the harmony within the choir. \nLittle Trouble Girls AWARDS: Rotten Tomatoes -98%; Tribeca Film Festival – Best Cinematography; Les Arcs Film Festival – Jury Grand Prize; Berlin International Film Festival – Best Feature Film; CinEast Film Festival – Critics’ Prize; European Film Awards – European Discovery Prize; International Film Festival – Golden Peacock; Euro-Balkan Film Festival – Best Director; Festival of Slovenian Film – Best Feature Film\, Best Actress\, Best Sound Designer\, Best Supporting Actor\,  International Film Critics’ Award (FIFRESCI) \n\nFamily Therapy\n2024  103 minutes \nFamily Therapy revolves around a Slovenian ‘nouveau riche’ family living in a glass house\, exuding detached superiority. This satirical setting provides the backdrop for a humorous reinterpretation of Pasolini’s “Teorema”: a young stranger disrupts the family dynamics\, unveiling hidden chaos and dysfunctional relationships. The film not only questions the obliviousness to others’ struggles but also probes the reasons behind their choices. Are they afraid of confronting their own vulnerabilities\, or is it a learned indifference\, a symptom of a broader societal ailment? \nFamily Therapy AWARDS: Family Therapy premiered to critical acclaim at the Tribeca Film Festival\, winning the Best International Narrative Feature; also\, Sarajevo Film Festival – CICAE Award; Festival of Slovenian Film – Best Feature Film\, Best Screenplay\, Best Lead Actor\, Best Original Music\, Best Production Design \n  \nSHORT FILMS \n \nSports Day\n2024  22 min \nLucian (13) would like to fit in. He does not want to be ridiculed\, so he decides to go skiing for sports day\, even though he cannot ski at all. One lie leads to another\, and finally to a flurry of untruths that put Lucian in an unbearable situation he cannot escape from. \n  \n  \nOne Meter is Six Centimeters\n2025  11 min \nCena\, the grouchy Slovenian woodcarver spent his childhood dreaming of jumping from the Giant of Planica\, a legendary ski-jump built to break records. Although a bad case of asthma cuts his wings at an early age\, his dreams live on. Each summer\, he organizes his very own Ski Jumping World Championship – in his own garden. \n  \n  \nCommon Pear \n2025  15 minutes \nIn a not-too-distant future ravaged by climate crisis\, a young neuroscientist is researching the extinction of the local Pyrus species. Trying to determine what used to stimulate farmers to cultivate the economically unviable fruit trees\, she stumbles upon an unfinished documentary. Through the wreckage of a ruinous dystopia that can still be avoided\, the film discovers a seed of hope. Human warmth\, humor\, and resilience are the superpowers that can support our species with a little help from cinema as an experience that “we must share\, feel\, and watch.” \n  \n  \nFor more Festival of Slovenian Films information\, please contact Paul Zovic pzovic@gmail.com
