About this Event
Grandpa Guru presents in an eclectic documentary style the continuity of the work of the band Kultur Shock with special emphasis on the interesting life, music and art of their singer and frontman Srđan Gino Jevđević. We follow Gino's spiritual journey in search of his own identity and place in the world, after leaving Sarajevo during the war and arriving in Seattle, USA, where he meets Krist Novoselic from the Nirvana and Jello Biafra from the punk band Dead Kennedys, who persuade him to continue playing music. Gino is haunted by the question of belonging and the feeling of being torn between life in America, Sarajevo and his mother and family. This is a story of transformation in times of hardship, escaping to the end of the world and a forever haunting demon.
Followed by the BHFF Golden Apples Awards Ceremony.
Grandpa Guru je portretni dokumentarac koji eklektičnim stilom prikazuje kontinuitet rada benda Kultur Shock, s posebnim naglaskom na zanimljiv život, glazbu i umjetnost njihova pjevača i frontmena Srđana Gine Jevđevića. U filmu pratimo Ginino duhovno putovanje u potrazi za vlastitim identitetom i mjestom u svijetu, nakon izlaska iz sarajevskog ratnog okruženja i dolaska u Seattle, gdje je upoznao Krista Novoselica iz grupe Nirvana i Jellu Biafru iz benda Dead Kennedys koji ga potiču da se nastavi baviti glazbom. Gina progone pitanje pripadnosti i osjećaj rastrganosti između života u Americi, Sarajeva i majke za koju je iznimno vezan. Ovo je priča o transformacijama jedne osobe u teškim vremenima, bijegu na kraj svijeta i demonu koji ga prati.
Nakon filma slijedi ceremonija dodjele nagrada BHFF Golden Apple.
