ARMIN

Specials

goEast SCHOOL FILM DAYS

A father and son make the journey from their home village in Bosnia to Zagreb, where the accordion-playing fourteen-year-old Armin will audition for a film part. After checking into the big-city hotel, they feel somewhat forlorn – nothing is going quite as smoothly as expected. Torn between hope and anxiety, father Ibro fusses over his son, who bears his attentions with equanimity. Auditions finally begin, and Armin is immediately rejected – he is simply too old. Not caring if people think him rude or pushy, Ibro urges the film crew to let his son play once, at least. Armin’s hard-earned performance ends abruptly: he suffers a mysterious breakdown. But the boy unexpectedly receives a second chance.
