Film Masters: Emir Kusturica (00s)

Emir Kusturica

Come the XXI century the cinema of Emir Kusturica began to go more unnoticed than the one he developed in the 80 y 90.

The reasons for this change were, on the one hand, that some of his stories began to be somewhat repetitive, being very similar to those he had developed in previous films, and on the other, that the filmmaker I was beginning to seek to make a more minority cinema.

An example of this more minority cinema was his 8 documentary film "Super 2001 Stories". This tape was the recording of what happened behind the scenes on the tour of the director's own musical group "Emir Kusturica & The No Smoking Orchestra«. This was the first that the director made a documentary, although it would not be the only one.

In 2004, Kusturica filmed "Life is a miracle", a film that was awarded in France the National Education Award, being used as an educational tool with an attached CD-ROOM that encourages students to debate. "Life is a miracle" was presented at the Cannes Film Festival where it chose the Palme d'Or.

A year later Emir Kusturica participates in the film «All the invisible children«, A film in which seven directors of great prestige, such as Spike Lee or Ridley Scott, participate, each of them contributing a short film about the situation of minors in different parts of the world.

In 2007, after the division of the former Yugoslavia, he shot his first Serbian-produced film "Promise Me". Once again he opts for the Palme d'Or at Cannes with his film.

With "Maradona por Kusturica" ​​he returns to the path of the documentary that had begun in 2001 with "Super8 Stories". In this new documentary he approaches soccer star Diego Armando Maradona with his peculiar point of view.
