As part of the exhibition 'Not a Love Song' by Miloš Trakilović at the Kunstwerke in Berlin (15.02.-04.05.2025), two films will be presented on March 26 at 19:00 – 'Colorless Green Freedoms Sleep Furiously' (2023) by Miloš Trakilović and the film '1395 Days without Red' by Šejla Kamerić, Anri Sala and Ari Benjamin Meyers.
During the 1395 day long siege of Sarajevo from April 4, 1992 to February 29, 1996 the city's residents were advised not to wear bright colours that might draw attention from snipers in the hills above. Retracing the route of Sniper Alley today, the film by Šejla Kamerić, Anri Sala and Ari Benjamin Meyers follows a woman, played by Maribel Verdú, as she makes her way through the city on foot. At each intersection she makes the decision whether to stop or to run, to run on her own or with others. Elsewhere in the city, an orchestra is rehearsing passages from Tchaikovsky's 6th symphony, the Pathétique. The musicians stop and start, repeating different sections of the symphony, echoing the movements of the residents through the city.
