K67 (in development)
Info
K67 is a burgeoning documentary about the iconic K67 kiosk - it's also a story of an unlikely friendship between designer Saša Mächtig and filmmaker Filip Filković. Their camaraderie evolves into a journey across the former Yugoslav states to explore the history and present-day significance of these iconic structures.
As they travel from kiosk to kiosk, viewers witness the development of their friendship, rooted in deep philosophical conversations and touching intergenerational chemistry.
Their journey becomes symbolic of bridging the gap between past and present, bridging generational divides with respect and gratitude.
The film extensively explores K67, the kiosk designed by Saša Mächtig in 1966. Thanks to its modular design, K67 kiosks were ubiquitous in the urban landscapes of the Balkans, serving various purposes - from newsstands to student cafes. Today, once a symbol of Yugoslav modernization, K67 is recognized and exhibited at MoMA, the prestigious Museum of Modern Art in New York City.
Through the film, viewers learn about the impact of K67 on the Balkan states, its global reach, and the challenges it faces in preservation as part of artistic heritage. "K67" is a retrospective, introspective, and inspiring film that intertwines art, history, and human connection.
