Director Statement

"The main character, Petra, is going through her path of facing loss, but also the path of regaining her freedom! After years of loneliness after a divorce and caring for her eight-year-old son, now and after the loss of her father, she experiences liberation from everything in the first place.
Of all the restraints, restrictions, authorities. For the first time without key male figures in his life. Although initially confused by her new life role and the situation in which she found herself, she instinctively grabs the breath of her own freedom and rushes towards it as if her life itself depends on it.
"Spring Poem" is in a way my last greeting to my father, which did not happen during his life. The plot of the film is set in those 40 days after my father's death, where while his soul seeks calm and passes from this to the other world, Petra's soul also searches for itself and after a long journey, finds it. Just myself, and love. And forgiveness. And a new beginning. Every scene and every shot is lived and revived to the end, honestly, directly and without ambiguity. The film is entitled "Spring Poem" after the song of the same name by Desanka Maksimović, a poet about whom Petra is making a documentary. The plot of the film is set in the spring, which gives birth to a new Petra who feels, writes, experiences and edits her Spring Poem. „
