A special tribute honors Atanas Aco Petrovski, a pioneer of Macedonian cinema and the Cinematheque’s first director. Marking the 25th anniversary of his death, the Cinematheque will screen his documentaries “Easter Customs” (1954), “Galichnik Wedding” (1955) and “Dervishes” (1955).

The Cinematheque will also celebrate the 80th anniversary of actor Meto Jovanovski’s birth and the 35th anniversary of Stole Popov’s cult film “Tattoo” (1991), which features him in the leading role.

The retrospective will close with a screening marking the 65th anniversary of Dimitrie Osmanli’s “A Quiet Summer” (1961) and the 20th anniversary of the filmmaker’s death. “A Quiet Summer” holds a special place in Macedonian film history as the first Macedonian feature-length comedy and the first Macedonian feature directed by a Macedonian filmmaker.

Antonio Mitrikeski’s “Like a Bad Dream” (2003) will also be screened in October, which the Cinematheque noted explores complex dialogues between the Balkans and Europe.

In addition to the Macedonian film retrospective, October’s schedule includes a series of screenings of Chinese, Swiss, French and German films.
