Vidim Te (I See You)
Monday, 4 May 2026, 7.30 pm

Screening and conversation with
Sam Lubicz
Part of the Dalmatian archipelago, Iž is a small island (12.2 km long). Its largest village, Veli Iž, is home to fewer than 300 year-round residents. Through interviews with locals (aged 12 to 99), and a mix of new and archival footage, the film looks at local traditions and histories, personal nostalgias, and adapting to rapidly changing times. Residents reflect on environmental concerns – rising sea levels, abandoned cars, and the infrastructure demands of a growing summer tourist season. With outward migration on the rise and elder generations passing on, the film considers what futures await small island communities like Iž.
The film will be shown in English, Croatian, German with English subtitles. After the film, there will be a conversation with the director
