‘Life is a Trumpet’, feature film directed by Croatian director Antonio Nuić, is the closing film of this year’s Mediterranean Film Festival. This comedy, full of humour, optimism, music evergreens and first class acting performances, will be screened on Saturday 27 August, after the awards ceremony for the best films of the 17th MFF.

The film had its premiere at International Film Festival in Warsaw 2015, and it speaks about somewhat ironic, but most of all compassionate view of human need to create a problem and the skills to solve these problems.



Family gatherings are a perfect opportunity to settle some old scores and to start with new clashes. The film presents two large family gatherings: a wedding and a Christmas Eve dinner. The groom, the protagonist, is a loose jazz musician who is trying to make peace between his father, a butcher, brother, a gambler, and his mother, a retired accountant. His young wife and her unusual parents generously offer their help.
