Birds

"What once brought the visual artist Latica Ivanišević and textile worker Zdenko Jerneić from the hamlet of Grabrovec near Zabok so closely together? And why does this woman from Zagreb still often travel by ordinary train to Zdenko’s attic in Grabrovec? Tapestry! Yes, tapestry! The artist once recognized in the anonymous factory worker from “Regeneracija”, Zdenko Jerneić, a person exceptionally skilled at masterfully and effectively creating a miracle – tapestry – according to her design, using multicolored threads. This half-hour documentary Birds carefully follows, from initial idea to finished work, the various phases of creating the artifact, as well as the performative virtuosity of this playful pair. The very act of creation, resembling a magical ritual, is filled with numerous wondrous scenes. "
