While 2018 may be coming to an end, award season in the entertainment industry will quickly be upon us and every year, the Oscars are met with huge anticipation and excitement. Kevin Hart has already been slated to host the 91st Academy Awards being held on Sunday, Feb 24th 2019 and now in the last month of the year, Academy members are making sure to watch every screening and film that is up for consideration to win the coveted and timeless Oscar award. This week, to a room filled with academy members, actors, reporters, critics and art lovers, Serbia’s OFFENDERS (Izgrednici) was shown hoping to be a nominee for the Best Foreign Language Feature

The film has already been talked about among international film critics but thanks to a screening held in Los Angeles, celebrities and now academy voting members are talking about the stimulating art film. Submitted for the Best Foreign Language Film Feature against 86 other films, the thriller is centered on a small group of sociology students, led by their university professor, conducting separate experiments around the city to prove the "Tetris" effect and its theory of chaos. OFFENDERS comes as prominent Serbian director Dejan Zecevic's ninth feature film and stars Radovan Vujovi?, Mladen Sovilj, Marta Bjelica and Svetozar Cvetkovic to name a few. It is produced by the production company Biberche represented by Nikolina V. Zecevic.
