On midsummer nights, film stars come to life in the courtyard of Ljubljana Castle. A programme of this season’s best films has once again been put together by Kinodvor, in collaboration with the City of Ljubljana and Ljubljana Castle. This year, five films will have their Slovene Premiere or Avant Premiere at the open-air cinema in the Castle courtyard.

Films are screened in their original language with English subtitles. English spoken films are screened with Slovene subtitles only. 

Moonlight

Moonlight; Barry Jenkins, ZDA, 2016, 111'
Cast: Mahershala Ali, Alex Hibbert, Ashton Sanders, Trevante Rhodes 

Moonlight chronicles the life of a young black man from childhood to adulthood as he struggles to find his place in the world while growing up in a rough neighbourhood of Miami. Anchored by extraordinary performances from a tremendous ensemble cast, Barry Jenkins’s second feature is at once a vital portrait of contemporary African-American life and an intensely personal and poetic meditation on identity, family, friendship, and love. Winner of three Academy Awards including Best Picture. (English spoken)
