The highlight of this year's educational selection is a Masterclass with Jan Gogola entitled: Maribor and documentary film as poetry. Together with the mentor, the participants will think about how to transfer poetry into the genre of poetic documentary film. which uses more experimental approaches and interweaves images and music, creating an atmosphere for achieving a special emotional experience. How do we place a poetic word on a film? Can a documentary be read like poetry? What are the narrative capabilities of combining the two approaches on film?

Jan Gogola works as a director, script editor, lecturer at Tomas Bata University in Zlín - Faculty of Multimedia Communications – Audiovisual Arts. Formerly a commissioning editor for Czech TV, chief of programme Czech TV Brno and lecturer at FAMU. His reflexive and stylized films are often based on everyday life, which forms a source of philosophical exploration: diary, essay, happening, observation, performance, situational portrait. He is author of essays what published in média and books.

The Masterclass is organized in cooperation with the Directors Guild of Slovenia as part of the Dokumentarnica workshop.
