Croatian film.: COWBOYS

Croatian film COWBOYS

In Cowboys, theatre director Sasha returns from the big city to his home town where he is offered to re-start the neglected local theater. The problem is that the city does not have any actors. After they advertise auditions for a new show, five very interesting candidates show up.  Their only common ground in the field of culture is the Western genre – so the director and his new ensemble decide to stage a Western.  The lead roles in the film are played by:

Saša  Anočić,
Živko Anočić,
Hrvoje Barišić,
Kruno Klabučar,
RakanRushaidat,
Radovan Ruždjak,
Ivana Rushaidat,
Matija Antolić
Nina Erak.

Carmen rojasI was born on a warm July 29, 1997 in Córdoba (Spain) and at the moment I am living in this beautiful city too. Now I am in my last year of high school and next year I would like to study a Chemistry’s degree. I love sports, specially swimming and football. Others of my hobbies are painting and travelling.

The experience in Comenius project has been one of the best chances in my life and I am really grateful because in this project I have learned a lot of things: I have improved my English, met wonderful people, had the opportunity to do a short funny movie with my friends and specially I have acquired human values. But the most important thing I have learned is something I can summarize in one sentence , an Italian teacher on my trip to Portugal said:
We started the trip being Croatian, Spanish, French, German … today we ended up being friends.

Carmen Rosa Hello everyone. My name’s Carmen, maybe this is one of the most traditional names in my country. I’m from the ole’s country because when I tell someone where I am from they say to me: “Wo Spain! OLÉ!”.

I’m going to tell you a little bit about myself to get to know me: I’m a normal seventeen girl and I like hanging out with my friends, going to parties… and these typical things that a teenager does. But being more personal, I love singing and staying at home while I’m eating chocolate. I’m the oldest sister and I have a cute dog which is called Lolo.

When I was little, I used to want to be shepherdess. Although I’ve changed my opinion, animals are continuing being my passion. I’d like to change the bad things of our world like intolerance or mistreatment, and I think the first step towards peace is the respect to animals, nature and ourselves. For this reason, Comenius project «Working with movies – moving people and their ideas« is a wonderful programme because you learn and practise the essencial human values as empathy. I participated in the first meeting in Tavira and I can say it was the most helpful week I’ve ever lived. Meeting people who have different culture and customs, other ideas and distinct forms of living the life is a experience that change you forever. It showed me that every person and culture has positive aspects, so I took all new and good things I saw. It made me grow up as a person. As I have the luck to participate in the fourth meeting in Croatia I’m going to take full advantage of it. Thanks to the project I’m a stronger person and I want to contribute my grain of sand to change our world. I know it won’t be easy but with effort I will be able to fulfill my ambition.

Cristina MarínHey! I’m Cristina Martín Anguita and I’m studying 1º of Bachillerato.
I’m 16 years old and I like reading, going out with my friends and watching American tv series.
This year I’m taking part on a project of Comenius, I’m going to travel to Croatia with my partners who had recorded a short film about homosexuality. So my part of the work is that I have to show
famous people who were gays in Croatia
I’m really happy because this experience is something that only
happens once in life so I’m going to take advantage of it. And talking
about homosexuality is something that I enjoy so much because there are still a lot of people in the world who are homophobic and that’s not good.It’s only a week in Croatia but is not just the trip, I have to practice about what I’m going to say in front of all that people so I have a responsibility. Anyway, I’m not nervous because I know I’m going to have a great time and I’m going to meet new people. I’m looking forward to it.

davidruizMy name is David, and…I don’t know how to explain my personality in a few lines but I will try it anyway. I like doing sport and going out, and I love animals and nature. I am the typical boy who smiles and laughs with everything, always trying to see the possitive side of the things. I live in a house in the country with my parents and my two younger brothers. As I have said, I love animals, ann I have at home two horses, a cat and a dog. Riding a horse at the countryside, it’s so relaxing and really lovely.

With Comenius Project, I have learnt lots of values and it has canged my mind about different aspects of life and connvivence. And the project has also taught me what means teamwork. We have been working friendly but seriously and the results have been very good until now. Personally, I really enjoy working on Comenius Project and I hope I enjoy the trip to Croatia.

David CastejónHi! My name is David, I’m from Spain and in despite of my short age (16 years old), I think I’m a mature person and I know how to live alone. Between my hobbies I can underline playing video games and playing basket, although
I also like record videos for youtube. I want to learn english for my future job (video games programmer), but I also want to learn it to communicate myself with other people around de world. Well, greetings from Spain, partners.
Antonio GomezEl cortometraje se ha realizado a partir del desarrollo de una idea y de un guion redactado por una de las alumnas participantes, y al que después han ido aportando su trabajo y sus apotaciones un grupo importante y numeroso de alumnos y alumnas, así como el profesorado que ha intervenido en el proyecto. Desde el magnífico quehacer de quienes pueden verse actuando en el mismo hasta la elaboración de la parte original de la banda sonora, pasando por la entusiasta labor de grabación y montaje final. Tal vez la intervención de «tanta gente» haya hecho el proceso más lento, pero también  ha enriquecido el producto final, no en el sentido de hacer un vídeo de factura impecable, pero sí en el de conseguir recoger y expresar las ideas que bullían en la mente de todos, e intentar abrir un camino para comenzar a debatir un tema en el que todo el mundo tiene algo que decir.
Rosa GarcíaHi! My name is Rosa and I’ve been a teacher at Gran Capitán secondary school for two years. Before that,I was the coordinator of a Bilingual Project in my previous school, – I’ve always loved getting involved in anything that could help my students to improve their language, their culture and to broaden their minds. So, when I was asked to participate in the Comenius Project, I didn’t hesitate. I can’t deny that having the time that this kind of Project implies is often almost imposible, but when you see that the students are eager to work, to travel, to learn… it is worth the sacrifice.

I am lucky to travel to Croatia with Lourdes and a group of very good and nice students. They’ve worked hard to prepare the meeting and I’m sure they are going to do their best. It’s going to be an unforgettable experience not only for them but also for Lourdes and me.

Finally, I’d also like to thank the other teachers involved in the Project for helping us to prepare the meeting (participating and shooting the short film, travel preparations,…).

Lourdes VenturaHi everybody, students and teachers involved in this project, people from 7 countries!

My name is Lourdes and I am an English teacher in IES Gran Capitán, almost a second home for me because I arrived at this school in 1991-92..

Can you think of a better way to open a new academic year than travelling to a new place and meet colleagues with some of my students?

Next Saturday we will be travelling to Vinkovci, Croatia. This summer the students have worked hard to prepare a short film about tolerance and respect which will be seen and discussed by the rest of teachers and students in the meeting,always under the supervision of our master Antonio Gómez. Comenius project is being a good practise of team work, sharing abilities, ideas,difficulties ..each individual contribution is essential for the project.Hard work and enthusiasm have already been packed in the luggage !!!
