À propos de cette écoute

In the October 2024 and February 2025 editions of Gimme a Beat, I reviewed the 20th edition of Zurich Film Festival.As many of the listeners of Gimme a Beat know, I have been exploring the female factor of the Zurich Film Festival for several years now. In 2024, similar to 2023, I had a chance to get together with so many female filmmakers and actresses that I decided to (again) breakdown my review of the ZFF into several shows. Since I am adapting the timing of the shows to Swiss(-German) screenings of movies, and most of them are happening this year, more shows are coming.I saw almost 35 movies, so I will not be able to review all of them, instead, I am focusing on the highlights only. To find them, you should follow the search with the following hashtags: #zff #zff2024 #highlight #gimmeabeat.In tonight's Gimme A Beat, I will be focusing on Majka Mara / Mother Mara, the movie directed and co-written by Mirjana Karanović, who also plays the lead role.The movie will have its official Swiss release on March 20 in several Swiss cinemas across the Swiss-German part of Switzerland. For Zurich, you can check RiffRaff/Houdini for screening times. Starting March 27, it will also be available in Swiss-French cinemas. The movie already had its pre-premiere in Zurich on March 10 at RiffRaff/Houdini and in Bern on March 11 at Rex.As listeners of Gimme a Beat know, I grew up in Novi Sad, ex-Yugoslavia, now Serbia, but what many may not know, I grew up watching Mirjana Karanović movies. The incredible talent of her generation and the high quality of Yugoslavian cinema, along with the variety of international films - both mainstream and alternative - that I was exposed to, is why I the movies. Growing up in Yugoslavia, I was also surrounded by strong women, inside and outside of my family, who carried themselves with grace, integrity, with a powerful, but kind attitude, and complexity, which only people who led a life with challenges have. Those were and still are my role models. Mirjana Karanović represented women like that, both on and off-screen.Tune in to Gimme A Beat (17.03.2025) tonight to hear my impressions of Majka Mara / Mother Mara, and my interview with Mirjana, combined with female-sung ex-Yugoslavian music I grew up with. The show will also feature a soundtrack from one of my favorite Serbian TV Series Jutro će promeniti Sve / Morning Changes Everything (This and That Production) created by Janja Lončar.Tonight's show will also highlight student-led anti-corruption protests, currently taking place in Serbia - a powerful example of democracy in action ✊ and a cause very close to my heart 💙. You can read more about them here and join us in Zürich, across Switzerland, or anywhere in the world to support the protests.For this reason, I will open the music segment of tonight’s show with a live interpretation of the song *Dosta, Dosta, Dosta* by the all-female band Boye from my hometown, Novi Sad. Pop Choir Radio from Novi Sad, led by Dušica Stojković, performed this song at the protest in Novi Sad on February 1st ✊Check also the relevant ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Deezer⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ playlist.———————————————————————for the info about old shows, please go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠previous entries
