ACCOMPANYING FILM PROGRAM OF THE EXHIBITION “ALAN FORD RUNNING A LAP OF HONOR”

On the occasion of the exhibition “Alan Ford Running a Lap of Honor”, which is a guest at the Museum of Yugoslavia from December 2, 2020 to January 31, 2021, the Museum of Yugoslav film archive (Kosovska 11) will host an accompanying film program based on the so-called “Alanford Poetics” from December 15, 2020 to January 27, 2021.

 As explained by the expert associate at the exhibition, Lazar Džamić, some of the films from the repertoire are directly inspired by “Alan Ford”, others show the atmosphere and humor characteristic of the comic, while some recognize a similar way of building a story, although they might not even be familiar with “Alan Ford”, or they were created before that comic.
