Film Script Festival celebrates 50th anniversary in Vrnjačka Banja

The 50th anniversary edition of the Film Script Festival was held in Vrnjačka Banja, bringing together prominent figures from the domestic film industry. During the ceremony, several major awards were presented, including the ‘Zlatno pero Gordana Mihića’ lifetime achievement award to screenwriter Predrag Perišić. Goran Radovanović received the ‘Zlatnik cara Konstantina’, and Marko Jovičić, the festival's executive director, was honored with a Special Award for the development and recognition of the festival.

The recognition of Marko Jovičić drew criticism from film critic Đorđe Bajić, who expressed disagreement with the award choice on social media. Additionally, the event drew public attention due to the unconventional red carpet appearance of actress Nataša Aksentijević. Opting for a ‘comfort-first’ approach, Aksentijević appeared without makeup, wearing a simple black maxi dress paired with bright green clogs and a colorful sports bag, sparking debate regarding festival etiquette and fashion.
