The Sarajevo Film Festival will pay tribute to Palestinian director Elia Suleiman in recognition of his contribution to the art of film.
Jovan Marjanović, the festival’s director, said Suleiman’s “universal language of cinema speaks to fundamental human values and emotions: fear and hope, home and homeland.” He added, “With his trademark wit, humor and profound insight, he navigates the complexities of our existence, shedding light on the absurdities of life with unmatched clarity and poignancy, portraying the spirit and identity of Palestine with a unique authorial style.
