SEEFest

The South East European Film Festival founder Vera Mijojlic is a passionate cinephile. After witnessing the disintegration of Yugoslavia, followed by a brutal war of the 1990s, she devoted her energy to building bridges.

A lively crowd of mostly Balkan Europeans filled the Writers Guild Theater on Doheny in Beverly Hills on May 1st, 2019 for the opening of SEEfest. The Los Angeles festival, whose mission is to promote works from the South Eastern European regions, has grown slowly but steadily over the last 14 years.
