RED DUST — THE REFLECTION OF A DECADE

Boasting three feature films and numerous domestic and international awards, Zrinko Ogresta has made a name for himself as the most successful Croatian director of the 1990s, and his latest film Red Dust can be considered a prime example of mainstream cinema. »Realistically« motivated and mildly critical (liberal), this crime melodrama about a »loser« from Zagreb’s suburbs is a continuation of Ogresta’s previous film Washed Out. In addition to bearing witness to the director’s maturing, it, in a certain way, summarizes one of the directions of Croatian cinema of the 1990s.
