Living Among the Dead
25 minutes
2025

A young American filmmaker raised by Yugoslav immigrants travels to the former Yugoslavia more than thirty years after its collapse, searching for the homeland her family never spoke of, only to uncover a hidden fragment of their past that becomes a key to deciphering her own fractured identity.

This film was made as a thesis project for the Ethnographic Documentary program at University College London
