Second "coffee" with Esad Bajtal dedicated to the first BiH Oscar winner

After successful realization of the first virtual coffee with the distinguished Esad Bajtal, at the beginning of November we are scheduling another online gathering. This time, Professor Bajtal will talk to his interlocutors about Dušan Vukotić, director from BiH who won an Oscar for his animated film "Surogat".

From historical success to marginalization

It was a historic moment because, in 1962, Vukotić became the first Oscar winner outside the United States.

Montenegro roots, born in Bileća in 1927, he lived in Zagreb until his death, Vukotić could boast of an impressive biography. He has won over 60 awards around the world which will, in the end, make him the most awarded author from this area. But even that fact will not save him from marginalization towards the very end of his life.

The story of this great and interesting career, his connection with Gagarin and Andrić, and social rejection in his later years arouse great interest.

Therefore, on November 3, we invite you to join another virtual coffee with Esad Bajtal and team of the i-platform under whose conduction the mentioned event is being realized, and also with all the people of good will and wide horizons.

With Ticket purchase you take part in the conversation that we schedule at 20:00 local time in Bosnia and Herzegovina. See you!
