Cinema Club - Old Movies

Academic film center has been founded in 1958 and named Akademski kino klub (Academic Cinema Club). During its relatively long history, and owing to the authors working within it (Kokan Rakonjac, Zivojin Pavlovic, Dragoslav Lazic, Sava Trifkovic, Tomislav Gotovac, Milan Jelic, Radoslav Vladic, Ivan Obrenov, Vjekoslav Nakic, Nikola Djuric, Bojan Jovanovic, Miodrag Milosevic, Miloje Radakovic, Dejan Vlaisavljevic, Igor Toholj, Bob Milosevic…), has become one of the most significant and most rewarded film clubs in the country. Since 1976 the Center has been active within the “Studentski Grad” (Students’ City) Cultural Center and is the only cinema club to “survive” in this area. Possessing more than 500 movies and video clips created in the Center and with a huge collection of avant-garde film and video clips of other authors, the Center has founded an Alternative Film Archive being in charge of this valuable film inheritance. In addition to a significant number of film projections and lectures, film schools and workshops, the Center also organized two significant festivals: STAF (1967-1970) and ALTERNATIVE FILM VIDEO (1982-1990). With current production of some 20 movies a year, the Center remains the only place in which young people can work on the film medium.
