Zauzdan - Ljetno Art-kino

Zauzdan Pillion, Ireland, United Kingdom, 2025, 106 min This British-Irish independent (lightly) erotic black comedy from 2025, directed by Harry Lighton, follows Colin, a withdrawn and timid traffic warden who unexpectedly finds his dream man in Ray, an enigmatic and alluring macho biker dressed in leather. The main roles are boldly and masterfully performed by Harry Melling (known for his role as Dudley in the Harry Potter series) and Alexander Skarsgård, whose exceptional on-screen chemistry drives this unusual romance. The film premiered at the prestigious Cannes Film Festival in the Un Certain Regard section (where it won the award for Best Screenplay), and local audiences also had the opportunity to see it at the Zagreb Film Festival. The special quality and main strength of this film lies in the fact that it does not use a complex theme from the world of sexuality for mere provocation, but instead delivers it through intelligent humor and unexpected tenderness. The film offers a universal, deeply moving and empathetic story about the boundaries of loyalty, the search for personal pleasure, and negotiation within modern romantic relationships. Tickets can be purchased at the Art-kino box office (open daily one hour before the first screening) or via the CoreEvent platform.
