Ivan Banasevic

Ivan Banesevic, the director of the film, got to like Brooklyn at first site. Brooklyn was once a separate city, before becoming in the late XIX century one of the five main parts of New York together with Manhattan, Harlem, Queens…

-Brookly is a part of New York, but is at the same time is a city on its own and I think has a soul. Each visit to Brooklyn is a film of its own and the film I’ve made – Brooklyn Rain – aims at conveying part of this chaos and charm… with raindrops, on the move… Maybe Belgrade never sleeps, but New York really never sleeps! It is hard to describe this in words, maybe a film can tell more. It’s a stage with your favorite show on the repertoire 24/7! It was the first place in which I had to take sleeping pills.
