Mina Djukic's The Disobedient to be screened at Sundance

Mina Đukić

LOS ANGELES - The Dispobedient, a film by Serbian director and screenwriter Mina Djukic, will be screened at Sundance Film Festival in the US state of Utah, which started on Thursday and will last until January 27.

The film is about two people growing up in Serbia's northern province of Vojvodina and it is the only film from Serbia and the region at this year's festival.

The Disobedient focuses on a drama that promotes courage to wander and explore outside the framework imposed by the society or any other authority. It is a tale of the right to love, freedom, beauty and life, Djukic explained.

Srdjan Golubovic's Circles had its world premiere at last year's festival and won a special award from the jury.

Sundance is the biggest festival of independent film in the US. It was established in 1984 by Hollywood actor and director Robert Redford.

This year's festival will include 187 films, with 67 of them competing in four categories. The winners will be announced on January 26.

On The Holy Liturgy

On The Holy Liturgy

by Bishop Athanasius Yevtich

The Divine Liturgy is at the center of Orthodox Christian life. It is through the Eucharist that the faithful are united with Christ and therefore with one another. Every Eucharistic gathering is an image and a reality of the Heavenly Liturgy, i.e. unceasing Synaxis of angels and saints around God’s throne. Thus the Liturgy is the proclamation of and a real image of God’s Kingdom in this world.

In this television interview conducted by the Logos, a renowned Orthodox theologian and retired Bishop of Zahumlje and Hercegovina, his Grace Atanasije, brings forth these essential points citing historical development of the Liturgies bringing to light the present misunderstanding of certain Liturgical actions and movements.

Bishop Atanasije aptly points out the necessity for Liturgical renewal, i.e. moving away from passive liturgical attendance to active participation and immersion of the soul and body into a full communion with Christ.
