The Discovering Dalmatia VI conference in Split, Croatia opened with a screening of our film Father-land after which we delivered a paper ‘Separation Anxiety: Filming the Nicosia Buffer Zone’ about the production. Although the conference had to be online it was run really well with a great selection of speakers. The conference theme was ‘Watching, Waiting – Empty Spaces and the Representation of Isolation.’ – the programme is available here.
