Vladimir Pogačić is a master filmmaker, preeminent artist to emerge in the post-war period and prolific archivist - longtime director of the Yugoslav Cinematheque and president of FIAF. Big and Small follows Pavle who - under police pursuit - attempts to transfer a group of illegals onto liberated territory. On the run and constantly moving hideouts help comes from where Pavle expects least. Winner of Best Director at Karlovy Vary, nominated for the Golden Lion at Venice and garnering multiple accolades at the Festival of Yugoslav Film in Pula, Big and Small captures the city of Belgrade through marvelous chiaroscuro and makes for a bonafide noir classic. The screening is presented and introduced by Mina Radovic, Serbian Film Festival UK. Special Thank You to Delta Video, Belgrade.
