SPLIT SCREENS

Croatia,  2020. 35′

An essay documentary about the Mediterranean city of Split. The film focuses on two symbols of the city – its patron saint, Saint Domnius, and his executioner and the founder of the city, Roman emperor Diocletian. The film juxtaposes the festivities celebrating these two figures, thus exploring the uniquely dual identity of the city where the victim and his persecutor are honoured equally among the people.
