INVENTORY (FILM)

documentary, 20 min – 2025

Completed in 1978, Sava Centar architecturally embodied a vision of the future for Yugoslavia. After the country broke apart, this modernist landmark of Belgrade was neglected by the state and, over decades, grew increasingly run down. In 2020, it was privatised. Piece by piece, the interior elements that resided in this cultural and congress centre since the 70’s were torn out. Like many of the younger workers, Nenad is in Sava Centar for the first time, detached from its past and the society that built it.
