Family Fortunes 2022

Directed by Mila Turajlić

A Serbian mother and daughter transform the domestic drudgery of cleaning the family silver into a reflection on how heirlooms embody their owners' histories. Stories of war, displacement and revolution emerge as the tarnish is polished off, like a genie rubbed out of a lamp, and recollections reconnect them to their relatives through the shared objects that have touched all of their lives.
