My Late Summer (Bosnian: Nakon ljeta) is a 2024 internationally co-produced comedy-drama film directed by Danis Tanović and written by Anja Matković, Nikola Kuprešanin and Tanović. The plot follows a family fighting for inheritance on a small island.[2]
A young woman from Zagreb, the illegitimate daughter of a rich islander, comes to the island where she begins an affair with a married British writer in a midlife crisis. Their sea adventure becomes a forbidden love, a search for identity, intertwined with family values, a tragicomic house renovation and a herd of cows that consumed intoxicants.
The film was supported by HAVC, the Slovenian Film Center, the Serbian Film Center, the Sarajevo Cinematography Foundation, the Romanian Film Center, BH Telecom and the MEDIA sub-programme of Creative Europe. Post-production started in 2022, and the film received a boost from HAVC with funds of €660,000.[5]
