According to Serbian Economist, the Ukrainian short film “Tvoja kuća je i moja kuća” / “Your Home Is My Home” by director Denis Kireev has been selected for the competition program of the first U30 Film Festival, which will take place June 4–7, 2026, at the Belgrade Youth Center.
According to the festival program, the Ukrainian film will be screened on June 6 as part of the competition block, with screenings beginning at 6:00 p.m.
The U30 Film Festival is a new international short film festival dedicated to young filmmakers. The festival’s name reflects two key criteria of the program: films must not exceed 30 minutes in length, and projects must represent the younger generation of filmmakers, specifically those under 30 years of age.
The competition program of the first festival will feature 11 films from Serbia, Montenegro, Spain, Ukraine, and Poland.
The program brings together narrative, documentary, and animated works of various genres and approaches.
In addition to the competition program, the organizers have arranged for audiences to meet with the filmmakers after the screenings. On the final day of the festival, there will be a retrospective of short fiction films by Serbian director Danilo Stanimirović, a member of the jury for the first U30 Film Festival, after which the jury will announce the festival’s best film.
Admission to all festival programs is free; however, due to limited seating capacity, visitors must obtain free passes in the central lobby of the Youth Center one hour before the start of the program.
