Sergi & Irina

Sergi and Irina meet at a summer party at June 21st 1939 held in a very luxurious house somewhere in Europe. They fall in love but they come from a very different family background. At the dawn of World War II, they confess to each other that night that they have to separate from each other but agree to meet the next year at the same place the same day at the same time, so they can continue the party as if time never went on, but the war stands between them, and the next year...

Director Statement

This is an homage to the Classic Golden Age of Hollywood Musicals of the 30s, 40s and 50s, along with an homage to my grandparents Poul & Cathy who participated in WWII and had to be separated due to the war. The film is dedicated to them.
