Fiume o Morel at GFT
Monday 24 November, 2025, 7.50 p.m.
In 1919 the Italian poet, dandy and preacher of war Gabriele D’Annunzio occupied the city of Fiume. The citizens of Fiume, today called Rijeka, retell and reinterpret the bizarre story about the 16-month occupation of their city in a brutally factual yet defiantly punk cinematic journey.
The result is a brutally factual yet defiantly punk cinematic journey, deadly serious yet hilariously surreal. It critically examines the tactics of performance, manipulation and propaganda employed during the siege and transgresses them to create a wild ride directly into the heart of chaos. An invitation to dare create new viewpoints, narratives, and experiences, it uncovers nationalist historiographies as effective and obstinate ideological instruments, no matter how absurd or ridiculous.
This screening will be followed by a Q&A with director, Igor Bezinović, hosted by filmmaker, writer and programmer, Rastko Novaković.
Italian and Croatian with English subtitles.
GFT 12 Rose Street, Glasgow G3 6RB
