Non-Aligned: Scenes from the Labudović Reels
Join filmmaker Mila Turaljić in person for a post-screening discussion.
Mila Turajlić continues her research into Stevan Labudović’s film archive, here documenting the birth of the Non-Aligned Movement, a largely Yugoslav-led bloc including many decolonizing nations that stood apart from both East and West during the Cold War. What begins as an exploration of newsreel footage of the 1961 Non-Aligned Summit in Belgrade becomes a love letter to a vanished country and its hopes for the future, a history of the early days of the Non-Aligned Movement, and a document of the affinity between two filmmakers, Turajlić and Labudović. Filmed in Belgrade, New York, and Algeria, and featuring archival footage from around the globe filmed by Labudović, this is a subtle, complex documentary, adroitly blending personal and global histories. (Mila Turajlić, 2022, Serbian, English, French, and Arabic with English language subtitles, DCP, 100 minutes)
