Filmography
The December Institute has maintained a steady schedule of productions and co-productions since its establishment, starting in 2015 with Luči mesta (City Lights, short). This was followed a year later by the well-received Mladi levi: polnost časa (Young Lions: The Fullness of Time), a documentary about the legendary 70s band, which it co-produced.
Two further shorts were produced in 2017, Nevidna roka Adama Smitha (The Invisible Hand of Adam Smith) and Moderne Kunst (Modern Art), both of which featured RTV Slovenia as a co-producer. These were followed by the institute's biggest project up to that point, Dnevnik Diane Budisavljević (co-producer). A feature-length docudrama about the rescue of 10,000 children from the Ustashe death camps in Croatia in WW2, it was financed by the Slovenian Film Centre, the national film centres of Croatia and Serbia, Creative Europe, and Eurimages (Council of Europe). It won a host of awards at the 2019 Pula Film Festival.
Creative Europe
As at the end of 2020, the December Institute had secured project funding for two projects under the Creative Europe – Media programme (2014–2020): Inventura (Inventory), a dark, feature-length comedy that received 30,000 euros in 2018, and Blok 5 (Block 5), a children's feature, which received the same amount in 2020.
