Film Premiere of “Holop 2” in Belgrade
The autumn cinema lineup brings us a true mystery, a dynamic and thrilling film Isolation, directed and written by Marko Backović, with Miloš Biković in the lead role. This breathtaking story takes us to a remote scientific station, hidden deep in abandoned forest areas, where researcher Jovan (Miloš Biković) arrives to study wildlife. At first, the solitude seems like an ideal escape from civilization, but soon unexplained events begin to disturb him.
As time passes, Jovan realizes he is not alone. Filmed in the picturesque landscapes of Mount Tara, this unique thriller takes its main character along a thin line between paranoia and reality, confronting him with a terrifying discovery that holds a dark secret about his mission.
“Isolation” is a film conceived to give audiences the kind of experience we, as the creators, enjoy watching ourselves – a thriller that not only offers excitement but also something different, fresh, and deeply connected to contemporary themes and issues. It’s a story that tests the boundaries between reality and its perception, raising questions that concern us all. Filled with unexpected twists and turns, this hybrid thriller combines elements of various genres to deliver an experience that I believe will satisfy thriller lovers as well as those looking for a powerful story within a complex, dynamic narrative,” said director and screenwriter Marko Backović.
In addition to Miloš Biković, the cast includes Miodrag Miki Krstović, Milena Predić, Milutin Dapčević, Mladen Andrejević, Marko Mak Pantelić, Anđela Jovanović, and Alisa Lacko. This original and extraordinary film story is also co-written by Marko Jocić, with the creative team comprising cinematographer Đorđe Stojiljković, editor Nataša Pantić, production designers Sanja Bulat and Katarina Plavša, composer Nikola Jeremić, and costume designer Jelena Đorđević.
The production companies Viktorija Film, Archangel Digital, Livada Produkcija, LMC, and Talking Wolf Productions stand behind this film project, which was realized with the support of the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Serbia, Telekom Serbia, the Film Center of Serbia, and the Audio-visual Center of the Republic of Srpska.
