STIFF Student International Film Festival is a major international event held in Rijeka, Croatia, presenting student diploma films and short debuts from around the world. The aim of the festival is to support people who are taking their first steps in the film industry, encourage the development of new ideas and international cooperation.
The protagonist of the awarded A Beautiful Flower Meadow by Emi Buchwald is Emil, a landscape architect who fights an unequal battle against the world of people indifferent to nature’s beauty. His neurotic determination will plunge him into a spiral of absurd events, all while trying to be a good father at the same time.
