Emilija Gašić

Emilija GAŠIĆ (1991, Serbia) holds an MFA in Cinematography from the NYU Tisch School of the Arts. She grew up in a small Serbian town in the 90s against a background of news reports on war, a dying country and the sense of uncertainty which deeply affected her sensibility in arts and formed her observant style in creating tension and atmosphere in her films. Her films have had successful festival runs and have screened at renowned festivals such as Columbus International Film & Animation Festival, Maryland Film Festival, Oscar qualifying Izmir Kisa Film Festival and many others. Gašić is a Nikon Storytellers Award recipient and a finalist for the Volker Bahnemann for Outstanding Cinematography. 78 Days (2024) is her first feature-length film.
