Akademija 28, Tuesday, October 20 at 8 PM — My Village Is Sweeter Than Paris

A Bosnian man brings a Parisian woman to his native village, and love immediately collides with hay, manure, the field toilet, the Turkish bathroom, traditional clogs, and sheep right under the window. "My Village Is Sweeter Than Paris" plays on the contrast between a life measured by the rooster’s crow and grazing, and habits that crave asphalt, a coffee machine, and city comfort. At Akademija 28, this comedy follows a homecoming that smells to him like meadows, homemade food, and familiar faces, while for her the same scenes become a true culture shock. Starring Melissa Čeliković and Adnan Alić, the story keeps asking how far love can endure when two people find themselves between the village and Paris.
