Pera Film as part of Bosnia Sancak Culture Days is presenting Bosnian Tunes, a program of six films exploring Bosnia and Herzegovina’s different music genres and its cultural relationships. The diverse musical genres entail Sevdalinka, also known as the Balkan Blues, folk, hip-hop and rock. The journey director Adela Peeva takes after deciding to track down a song she heard at a restaurant in Istanbul, recounts the melancholic yet lively and astounding story of this melody that is boasted in each country she visits. Sali S. Saliji’s film Sevdalinka, which was invited to the Sarajevo Film Festival this year, introduces the performers of this music and accompanies their narratives. Gianluca Loffredo’s film, No Smoking in Sarajevo, which received awards from several film festivals, includes rare footage of the former legendary Yugoslav-Bosnian band “Zabranjeno pusenje,” translating to “Smoking is Forbidden” Meanwhile, the film called Sevdah invites the audience to the discovery-filled musical journey of musician Damir Imamović and director Marina Andree Škop as they mourn the death of their mutual friend, Farah.
As part of Pera Film’s programs, musician and the lead actor of Sevdah, Damir Imamović will perform on Friday, October 20. Following the screening on Saturday, Balkan music researcher and musician Muammer Ketencoglu will be in conversation with Imamović.
This program’s screenings are free of admissions. Drop in, no reservations.

A firm believer in the idea that a collection needs to be upheld at least by four generations and comparing this continuity to a relay race, Nahit Kabakcı began creating the Huma Kabakcı Collection from the 1980s onwards.
Between 1963 and 1966 Andy Warhol worked at making film portraits of all sorts of characters linked to New York art circles. Famous people and anonymous people were filmed by Andy Warhol’s 16 mm camera, for almost four minutes, without any instructions other than ‘to get in front of the camera’.
Organized in collaboration with the Giacometti Foundation, Paris, the exhibition explores Giacometti’s prolific life, most of which the artist led in his studio in Montparnasse, through the works of his early period as well his late work, including one unfinished piece. Devoted to Giacometti’s early works, the first part of the exhibition demonstrates the influence of Giovanni Giacometti, the father of the artist and a Swiss Post-Impressionist painter himself, on Giacometti’s output during these years and his role in his son’s development.
