Sevdah is a feeling about life imbued with melancholy, yearning and beautiful sorrow. In Bosnia it is expressed through their traditional sad song – sevdalinka. The death of their mutual friend and lover of sevdalinka, Farah, has brought musician Damir and director Marina together. Trying to deal with their own loss and grief, they decide to create a film about sevdah. They create it as an emotional, musical, lyrical and visual journey through the soul of Bosnia, through their own emotions and memories.

Marina Andree was born in 1973, Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina. Marina graduated from Academy of Drama Arts in Zagreb 1997, at the department for film editing.  2001 together with her colleague Mrs. Darija Kulenovic Gudan, she established film production company Studio dim. Since then, she directed more than 30 music videos, 50 commercials and numerous corporate films. She works as a director and producer. “Sevdah” is her first author’s documentary.
