Official DVD is still not available so I have decided to upload the film to everyone hoe find it interesting. With a budget of 50-60 thousend euros is the most cheapest film in 2009 in Serbia and big part of that budget is used for 35mm film copy. One of the bizarre moment is that the film was entered in Cape Winelands Film Festival in Capetown together with most expensive Serbian film that year “Sveti Georgije Ubiva Azdahu”
Film is very free adaptation of two old testament story, about Jona and Jacob and I have made that film because I was interested to see how that biblical element will adopt in contemporary Serbian society. Read More »

Plot:
How much space does Zeynep take up in this vast universe? This is a city brimming with the struggling and the unemployed; aren?t their lives a bit like the infinite, tiny particles flying through the air? Zeynep is already trying hard to make ends meet when she gets fired from her job at a textile mill. The Particle follows her as she searches for a job. We follow her in and out of workspaces. Zeynep?s world ? the streets and homes in Tarlabaşı ? are dark and suffocating. In The Particle, the prison-like feeling of the opening sequence never recedes; we relentlessly feel the dead ends of the city, a dystopia. A sober salutation to the working class, this is a very adept feature film from a director who has obviously spent a lot of time with documentary.Read More »
