Varuh meje (Guardian of the Frontier)
Written by Brock Norman Brock, Zoran Hocevar, & Maja Weiss
Directed by Maja Weiss
2002, France/Germany/Slovenia
A lazy trip down a river turns into a nightmare. It’s a plot that has been tread on many times in the horror genre, and even more in the adventure and thriller genres. Varuh meje takes an interesting approach to the old girl known as the river trip. It approaches the trip from a decidedly female and nationalist perspective. Suffice to say if the viewer has no interest in Slovenia or in the role of women in Slovenian culture, then they need not bother with Varuh meje.
Coming from a female director in Maja Weiss, Varuh meje comes at its topics from a very female perspective. The commentary is layered, and often it’s so steeped in the relationship between Slovenia and Croatia that losing your footing is very easy.

Holy Strokes!: Turk’s Debut Loses Its Appetite
Born out of a collaboration with the Torino Film Lab comes Martin Turk’s feature directorial debut, Feed Me With Your Words, a three tiered narrative structure told from thee separate points of view from an overlapping timeline. Turk, who has worked as assistant director to Danis Tanovic and Maja Weiss, shows an intriguing knack for establishing a broody foreboding, but his overlapping ellipses lead to an underwhelming conclusion that feels disappointingly contrived.
On a seemingly normal day, Matej (Sebastian Cavazza) suddenly begins receiving phone calls from his estranged father, Janez (Boris Cavazza) whom he hasn’t spoken with in over a decade. Reluctantly, he finally answers his phone and finds that his younger brother Robert, who had been living with his parents in the Slovenian countryside, had recently traveled to Turin and has seemingly disappeared. Janez needs Matej’s help...
