Sarajevo Film Festival announces a new tribute program dedicated to Hungarian filmmaker Béla Tarr. Sources report that the program, called “Béla Tarr in Sarajevo Tribute,” is designed to celebrate Tarr’s legacy following his death earlier this year at age 70. The festival says the tribute will focus on the work of Tarr’s former students from the Film Factory in Sarajevo, an educational initiative he helped establish in 2013. Variety and The Hollywood Reporter both link the initiative to Tarr’s role at the Sarajevo Film Festival, noting that he ran the Film Factory from 2013 to 2017. The festival’s new program is framed as an opportunity to spotlight the creative output and continuing influence of the filmmakers who trained through Tarr’s Sarajevo Film Factory. The announcements indicate that festival programming will include a selected lineup connected to these former students, though further details on specific titles and participants are not provided in the excerpts. Overall, the coverage centers on the same core points: Tarr’s death, his Film Factory work in Sarajevo, and the festival’s plan to honor his legacy through those he mentored.
