Film Postcards (2025)

Created and directed by Filip Filković Philatz

“Film Postcards” is a series of short cinematic stories - poetic reels about forgotten Croatian inventors, artists, and dreamers who shaped the world in quiet, extraordinary ways.

Each episode is a miniature film - a blend of history, imagination, and visual storytelling inspired by the symmetry and emotional precision of Wes Anderson’s cinema.

Told through minimalist narration and painterly imagery, the project revives figures who slipped through the margins of history: explorers who vanished in jungles, women who defied conventions, scientists who changed the world without asking for applause.

They are sort of biographies, postcards from time - fragments of memory, color, and motion.

From the Seljan Brothers mapping the unknown, to Paula Landsky ringing Zagreb’s first tram bell, to Alma Balley taking the wheel in a city still ruled by horses - each story captures the beauty of courage, imperfection, and human curiosity.

The project merges film, design, and storytelling into a single visual poem - a digital museum of emotion.
