Short Tuesday
Short Tuesday is a program organized by Croatian Film Association that takes place once a month in Tuškanac and shows domestic and foreign short feature films.
Program for 2023 can be seen here.
Ticket is 4 euros.
Several years ago, faced with a lack of a screening venue for short films, including all kinds and sorts (feature, documentary, experimental and animated films), as well as alternative production in general, Croatian Film Association started a special program devoted to short film production that takes place in the big auditorium of the Tuškanac cinema. In the beginning, the program referred exclusively to experimental film (thus the title Experimental Tuesday), but later the concept changed to encompass any form of short film production and the program was renamed Short Tuesday. The idea remains to focus on innovative, research, alternative and experimental films, which can only be seen sporadically in Zagreb as a part of some film festival, but they are often lost in the sea of more attractive titles. Within the program we also present forgotten heritage and offer guest filmmakers, curators, managers of film archives or festivals of short films an opportunity to present their work during the introductory discussion and thus, at the time when films are mostly watched in private (at home from the internet or on DVD), we return not just watching but also discussions about films in the public space. In addition, Short Tuesday devotes great attention to the importance of formats in which films are shown i.e. we try to screen the films in formats in which their authors envisioned them. We believe that it is one of the key factors for a true experience of film as art.

Directed by: Agnès Varda

Synopsis:
Trudna sineastica vodi nas kroz ulicu Mouffetard u Latinskoj četvrti u Parizu. Njezina tura po mnogočemu se razlikuje od prosječne turističke brošure, ali i većine novovalnih filmova. Eteričan i razigrani kratkiš leluja između dokumentarističke uronjenosti u sadašnjicu i esejističke intimnosti, socijalnog angažmana i nadrealističke distanciranosti. Film je podijeljen u segmente koje razdvajaju rukom pisani međunaslovi – ponekad lakonski precizni, a ponekad poetski zaku...

Ja sam ta koju kupuju. Što zapravo znači biti žena? Kako žene žive status koji društvo rezervira za njih?

Directed by: Jean Genet

Synopsis:
Dvojica zatvorenika u potpunoj izolaciji, odvojeni debelim zidovima od opeke, kojima je očajnički potreban ljudski kontakt, smišljaju najneobičniju vrstu komunikacije. Jedini film pisca Jeana Geneta. Film je izazvao brojne kontroverze, čak i na sudu u američkoj oblasti Alameda opisan je kao ''jeftina pornografija proračunata da promovira homoseksualnost, perverzije i prakse morbidnog seksa''.

Film
(USA, 1965)
Directed by: Samuel Beckett
Synopsis:
Dvadesetominutni, gotovo potpuno nijemi film (bez dijaloga ili glazbe, osim jednog 'šššš!') u kojem O (Buster Keaton) pokušava izbjeći promatranje E (svevideće oko). No, budući da se film temelji na načelu biskupa Berkeleya 'esse est percipi' (biti znači biti percipiran), samo Keatonovo postojanje urotilo se protiv njegovog truda.

Arabesques on the Pirosmani Theme
(Arabeskebi Pirosmanis temaze, USSR, 1986 | Mjesto prikazivanja filma: Kino Kinoteka (Kordunska ul. 1))
Directed by: Sergej Paradžanov
PHOTOGRAPHY: Nodar Paliashvili
Synopsis:
Dokumentarni film o velikom gruzijskom autsajderskom umjetniku Niku Pirosmaniju. Snimajući detalje i teme svojih živopisnih slika, Paradžanov stvara privlačan i tajanstven portret same Gruzije. Ovaj kasniji rad često se smatra pratećim djelom Hakoba Hovnatanyana (1967), budući da također preuzima temu od poznatog slikara.
