Safe Place (Sígurno Mjesto) - Review

Depictions of mental health on screen can so often feel like nothing more than mere tropes; a plot device to give the “hero” the chance to demonstrate their power. It’s very rare that you see a writer or director make bold choices for the sole purpose of raising awareness. For those going through it themselves or for those who find themselves as bystanders, the invisible prison of one’s own mind…

However finds full kaj pa ester to watch online will be a hero of the fandom. I don't even care for subtitles. I just need to see that movie. It is my life mission to see it. But I don't think it is even played in slovenian cinemas anymore :(

Does anyone know if we can watch kaj pa ester somewhere with subtitles?

Definitely not only because of that one scene of bojan in the bathroom i promise

[anxious-witch]

"JO should go watch Kaj pa Ester and make fun of Bojan for that jerking off scene", is very good and funny and I absolutely approve.

That said, let me tell you a worse situation that happened in my high school to my professor. Below the cut bc this is kinda long.

So to set the scene, this is art high school. And one of the things our hs does is forces us to watch all the croatian movies that come out during the school year. Every. Single. One.

Why is this important? Well, because this one particular professor wrote books and ocassionally acted in movies. And since they were doing an adaptation of his book, of course he was in the cast.

The problem? One scene of that character require him to be butt naked on camera.

Now, imagine you are 30-something old professor, who is already hot enough so some teenagers hit on you. And you are sitting in a cinema, your movie rolling for everyone to see.

And the scene comes and everyone goes dead silent. Like literally I think we were all trying not to laugh so hard we were more quiet than ever before.

This man had to teach all of these kids for years to come. And every time he looked them in the eyes he knew they have seen his ass on big screen.

So yeah, Bojan will certainly get shit for the jerking off scene from his friends! But at the very least, he can be glad he didn't decde to become a professor before it came out. Because students? Students always remember

film ask 20, 27, and 7?

7 again? okay!

7. a film in your native language Ritam Zločina, translated as The Rhythm of the Crime, released in 1981, borderline SF and horror film, beautifully filmed, tense as hell, a must watch if you wanna dive into Croatian cinema if you ask me

20. a film where the vibes are immaculate In The Mood For Love, this movie was one of the main culprits when it comes to me developing genuine love for cinema as a medium and to be fair, the story is relatively simple, but the mood, the atmosphere, the music dancing to the moving image? that happens once in a century, man

27. a film with a budget lower than 10 million i eat low budget stuff up, so i'm gonna name my favourite low budget b-movie, Bubba Ho-Tep, they did all of that (made me cry) on a budget of approximately 1 million dollars

How to Choose A Yacht For Family Trips: Top Destinations

A family yacht charter vacation can be one of the best ways for families to spend time together. A yacht trip is a unique way to experience fun, relaxation, and comfort that you might not find on other family trips. This guide will show you how to choose a yacht for family trips so that every moment on board is fun and enjoyable.

The Basics of Family Yacht Charters

A yacht charter is a unique experience for the whole family. It is possible to rent yachts for families. So, they can visit beautiful places in comfort and privacy in their own boats. Many choices are available, such as large, luxurious superyachts and smaller, more casual sailing yachts. Different people and budgets can choose from these options. Many places are available for families, such as the beautiful Virgin Islands or the charming Croatian coast. A trip through these beautiful waters will help them create great memories.

Benefits of Choosing a Yacht for Family Vacations

Opting for a yacht charter as a family brings many benefits. First, you can travel to several places without the trouble of packing and unpacking. Families can wake up to a new view every day, whether it is a calm beach or a busy harbor. The onboard features, from big cabins to cozy lounges, offer comfort and relaxation. A charter yacht also lets families enjoy many activities like snorkeling, swimming, or just relaxing on the deck. This way, every family member can find something fun to do.

Why Yacht Charters are Ideal for Quality Time

Family yacht charters are meant for bonding. Being on a yacht helps families spend time together, whether enjoying meals made by the chef or taking part in fun activities like treasure hunts. The changing schedule lets families customize their trip to match everyone’s interests. This special setting promotes talk and makes family relationships stronger, making it a great choice for a family vacation.

How to Choose the Right Family Yacht for Your Trip?

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Charter Yacht

When choosing the best family yacht for your vacation, there are several important things to think about. The yacht’s size is very important. It should have enough space for your family, with cabins for privacy and other areas for spending time together. The type of yacht matters too. Think about whether a motor yacht or a sailing yacht fits your family’s likes. Also, look at the yacht’s features. A good kitchen, systems for entertainment, and cozy lounge areas are key for a nice family experience.

Understanding Different Types of Yachts: Catamarans and Motor Yachts

Choosing between a catamaran and a motor yacht can affect your family yacht charter experience. Catamarans are stable and spacious. This makes them great for families who may not be used to sailing. They have a larger deck that is good for fun activities and relaxing. Motor yachts, however, provide speed and luxury. They are perfect for families wanting to get to places faster. Knowing the key differences between these yachts can help you pick the right one for your family’s needs.

Tips for Finding Family-Friendly Yachts

When looking for family-friendly yachts to rent, think about contacting charter experts who know about family yacht vacations. They can offer useful advice and suggestions based on your family’s size and what you like to do. Check for features like kid-friendly spaces, safe deck areas, and fun activities on board. A yacht crew who is used to sailing with families can also improve your experience by making sure everyone is safe and has a good time.

What Should Your Plan Include for a Family Yacht Charter?

Creating a Balanced Plan for Activities Onboard and Ashore

Designing a plan for a family yacht trip should include both activities on the boat and off the boat. On the boat, families can enjoy cooking classes, have movie nights in a private cinema, or just relax and take in the ocean views. When off the boat, plan trips for different interests, like exploring local cultures, hiking in beautiful places, or visiting historical spots. A good mix of fun and relaxation will keep everyone in the family happy and entertained during the vacation.

Must-See Places for Family Yacht Trips: The Virgin Islands and Croatia

When you plan your family yacht trip, think about adding places like the Virgin Islands and Croatia. The Virgin Islands have clear waters, great for snorkeling and other fun activities for kids and adults. Croatia has a lot of history and beautiful coastlines, making it a good place for culture and beach fun. These places will not only improve your family’s sailing time but also provide many activities for everyone.

Adding Fun Activities for Kids to Your Yacht Trip

To make your family vacation fun for kids, include kid-friendly activities on your yacht trip. Planning treasure hunts on board can create excitement for younger family members. Be sure to have water toys like paddleboards and inflatable slides ready to keep the kids busy on sunny days. By adding these fun activities, you help kids enjoy the yacht experience more. Parents can relax knowing their children are having a good time.

What features should you find in a family yacht?

Essential Things You Need Onboard for a Comfortable Family Experience

When choosing a family yacht, consider the important features that can make your trip comfy. You’ll need big cabins that give family members some privacy. A good kitchen is key for cooking meals. You should also have cozy lounge areas, places to eat outside, and shaded spots to relax and hang out. It’s important to have good air conditioning and heating so you feel comfortable no matter the weather during your family trip.

Water Toys and Activities for Fun-Filled Days

Adding different water toys and activities to your yacht trip is important for having a fun time. Look for yachts that come with snorkeling gear, kayaks, and jet skis to make sure your family enjoys the water. These fun activities inspire adventure and help create lasting memories. Also, ask about any extra gear that you can rent, so your family has everything needed for a thrilling vacation on the water.

Child-Friendly Features: Safe and Fun Choices

Child-friendly features are very important when picking a yacht for a family trip. Safety should come first, so make sure the yacht has life jackets and proper safety rules. There should be fun activities, like games, movies, and books, to keep kids busy during free time. A trained nanny or childcare worker can also be a great help on your yacht. This way, parents can relax, knowing their children are safe and happy.

How to Make Sure You Have a Great Luxury Yacht Charter Vacation?

Choosing a Crewed Yacht for Hassle-Free Sailing

Choosing a crewed yacht can make your family holiday feel easy and fancy. A skilled crew takes care of sailing, cooking, and keeping things in order. This lets families enjoy their time together. The crew also pays attention to your food likes, making sure every meal is tasty. With them handling all the details, families can relax and make special memories without worrying about planning everything.

Planning fun activities: treasure hunts and movies on board.

To make your family yacht charter better, think about planning fun activities for everyone. You could set up treasure hunts, which would be a great adventure for kids. A movie night on the boat can also entertain everyone. By planning these fun activities, you create special memories that will last long after the trip. This will make your family vacation even more enjoyable.

Get the Best from Your Family Yacht Charter Experience

To have a great luxury yacht vacation, it’s important to be open to new experiences and enjoy every chance you get. Talk to the yacht crew. They can tell you about local spots and fun things to do that are not in regular travel guides. Be willing to change your plans based on the weather and what your family wants. A relaxed attitude can make your vacation better. In the end, the most important part of a family yacht trip is the time spent together, the fun you have, and the memories you make on the water.
