World premiere of ‘Happily Ever After’ in Rotterdam

Tatjana Božić’s documentary film Happily Ever After last Sunday had its world premiere at the International Film Festival Rotterdam. Iris lammertsma from Jongens van de Wit production company presented the film to the audience, which welcomed it with a loud applause. Director Tatjana Božić then stepped before the Rotterdam audience and greeted them. Yesterday it was wonderful! The theatre was full and everyone laughed at the right places, commented Tatjana briefly.

The Q&A was moderated by the Festival’s programme advisor, festival programmer, tutor and film critic Rada Šešić. Happily Ever After is scheduled for screening several more times until the end of the festival. The dates and locations are available here.

Happily Ever After is a (tragi)comical attempt of the director to question her previous relationships and thus save the current one. Director Tatjana Božić grew up in Croatia, studied in Moscow and today splits her time between Zagreb and Amsterdam. Happily Ever After is her feature-length debut. The film is produced by Jongens van de Wit (Netherlands) in co-production with IKON (Netherlands), Factum and Zelovic Productions (Netherlands)

The 43rd edition of the International Film Festival Rotterdam takes place 22 January thru 2 February 2014.
