Svetozaru Cvetkoviću nagrada kritike za najboljeg glumca na festivalu u Hjustonu

Glumac Svetozar Cvetković dobio nagradu kritike za najboljeg glumca na 50. filmskom festivalu Vorldfest (Worldfest) u Hjustonu.

Cvetković je priznanje dobio za ulogu u filmu "You Go To My Head", koji je režirao belgijski producent i reditelj Dimitri De Klerk, saopštila je produkcijska kuća Testament films.

- Ovo je lepa vest. Pogotovo što priznanje dolazi od ljudi koji vas ne poznaju, ili vas čak možda nisu nikad ni gledali - rekao je tim povodom Cvetković koji nije bio u mogućnosti da prisustvuje dodeli nagrada.

On je dodao da se oseća "pomalo nestvarno, i istovremeno ponosno", kada se pogleda ko su ovogodišnji laureati.

Medju glumcima, ovogodišnji dobitnici nagrada u zvaničnoj konkurenciji su Natali Portman, Džef Bridžis i Kejsi Aflek.

"You Go To My Head" je nezavisna, niskobudžetna francusko-nemačko-američka koprodukcija, snimana 2015. godine sa vrlo malom ekipom, u Marakešu i pustinjskim predelima Maroka. Reditelj De Klerk je dobio nagrade za režiju i film u celini.

Dizajner tona bio je Novica Jankov iz Srbije. Očekuje se da film uskoro bude prikazan i u Beogradu, uz prisustvo reditelja.

The Meaning of Reality

Essays on Existence and Communion, Eros and History

by Christos Yannaras

The collection of articles traces the thought of Christos Yanaras through his long journey in discovering the meaning of existence, communion, eros, and history. It is a cause of immense joy that no fewer than twenty articles of passionate significance and substance have at present been gathered together in this volume under the title The Meaning of Reality.

Yannaras is undoubtedly one of the most significant thinkers of our time. Kallistos Ware once described him as "the most creative and prophetic religious thinker at work in Greece today," while Rowan Williams characterizes him as "one of the most significant Christian philosophers in Europe." His very wide and no less deep education helps him to develop an inimitable blend of philosophy, theology, and social criticism, and to speak in an original way about the traditional and contemporary issues of human existence, as well as the latest challenges of modern empirical science and political engagement. A detailed knowledge of the writings of the Holy Fathers has always been his foundation amidst the labyrinth of modern thought - which is inimately bound up with psychoanalysis, environmental issues, human rights, postmodernism, and pluralism , to mention just a few. Insistence on the primacy, uniqueness, and eternal value of human personality prevails in almost all his works and inspires his own vigorous theological and ecumenical engagement, based on the Orthodox eucharistic and ascetic tradition.
