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 first public screening in Slovenia in the Castle courtyard.

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

In the event of rain or bad weather forecast, screenings are cancelled. There are no backup screenings at Kinodvor cinema this year due to hall renovation. In the case of Avant Premieres and the Special Screening, three additional screenings of each film will take place at Kinodvor between 1–5 August.

The Killing of a Sacred Deer

Yorgos Lanthimos, VB / Irska, 2017, 121'
cast: Colin Farrell, Nicole Kidman, Barry Keoghan, Raffey Cassidy

Steven, an eminent cardiothoracic surgeon, and his wife Anna live a happy and healthy family life. Steven has formed a friendship with Martin, a 16-year-old boy whom he has taken under his wing. But when he introduces Martin to his family, things take a sinister turn, gradually forcing Steven to make a shocking sacrifice. Colin Farrell and Nicole Kidman star in Yorgos Lanthimos’ signature mixture of Greek tragedy, existential horror and Hitchcockian psychodrama. Best Screenplay at last year’s Cannes. (English spoken)
