Miro, an immigrant from the former Yugoslavia lives in Toronto. When he finds out that his pre-war friend Dado, who has been missing for almost two decades, is now wanted for war-era crimes, his life starts to unravel. Upon hearing that Dado still visits a village on the outskirts of Sarajevo, Miro embarks on a trip back to Bosnia to find his friend.

In this workshop, participants will look at the aesthetical and production considerations of the DIY (Do-it-yourself) model and how it differs from the industry model. They will look at an overview of development, pre-production, production and post-production responsibilities when working this way. In an effort to put discussions into everyday contexts, Drljača will draw on his personal experiences of working in Toronto and abroad using the DIY approach as well the traditional industry model.
Born in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Igor Drljača moved to Canada in 1993 due to the wars in former Yugoslavia. He completed his Master’s in Film Production at York University’s graduate program in 2011. He runs the production company TimeLapse Pictures with York Alumn Albert Shin. He is the recipient of the K.M. Hunter Artist Award for media arts. His award winning shorts include Woman in Purple (2010), and The Fuse: Or How I Burned Simon Bolivar (2011), which have screened at hundreds of festivals. His critically acclaimed feature film Krivina (2012) premiered at TIFF and screened at dozens of international festivals. In 2014 he co-produced Albert Shin’s TIFF 2014 favorite In Her Place, which received 7 Canadian Screen Award nominations. He is in post-production on his sophomore feature The Waiting Room, which will be released this year. His third feature film, Tabija, which is in development, received Rotterdam Film Festival’s Cinemart Eurimages Prize and was also selected for the prestigious Cannes Film Festival’s L’Atelier program. www.timelapsepictures.ca
