OPENING NIGHT UNDER THE STARS | 8:30 PM
The festival opens with the feature-length documentary “Mountain”, directed by Biljana Tutorov and Petar Glomazić.
A powerful story: The film follows the women of Sinjajevina, who have spent years defending their mountain, their traditions, and their right to live in harmony with nature. The documentary has already won the Grand Jury Prize for Best International Documentary at the renowned Sundance Film Festival, and audiences in Podgorica will have the opportunity to see it at the festival’s opening ceremony.
