After making documentary 'Kako smo cesljali babu' (2009)..Jelena Bajic directed her first feature film 'Led' ('Ice'/2012) which got international recognition! Then she made 10 episodes each of Television series 'Psi laju vetar nosi' and 'Password Despot'!

Scene of Jelena Bajic Jocic directed Serbian film 'Led' ('Ice'/2012).

I saw her Serbian film 'Led' in our 'International Film Festival of India' held at Goa. It was like a metaphor! On the backdrop of Marshal Tito era during 1970s..it's story centres around a young man hunted by memories of his father. In a sensible direction it beautifully visualised! All artists like Velimir 'Bata' Zivojinovi, Olga Odanovic & Danijela Mihajlovic acted superbly in it! I was impressed by it's sensitive cinematic treatment and that I told to it's co-producer Ms. Jelena Mila who was there in 'IFFI' to introduce the film!

Strong female character of Serbian film 'Led' ('Ice'/2012).

Keen to watch such nice films of Jelena Bajic Jocic!

All the best to her!!
