University of Arts in Belgrade, Faculty of Dramatic Arts

Erasmus+ Mobility for Traineeship at:

The European Independent Film Festival

My time in Paris was one of the most inspiring periods of my life. Surrounded by people with big visions and an infectious passion for life, I felt constantly energized and creatively challenged. The internship experience was dynamic and diverse as I had the chance to contribute to both the ÉCU – The European Independent Film Festival and the Olympiade music festival, which allowed me to fully immerse myself in different parts of the cultural scene. I quickly found my place among fellow creatives and felt a deep sense of connection to the rhythm of the city.

Being part of an Erasmus+ program made this journey even more meaningful. It gave me not only professional opportunities but also a strong sense of European community and intercultural exchange. I had the chance to collaborate with people from all over the continent, sharing ideas, values, and creative energy in ways that deeply shaped my perspective.

Paris, with all its beauty, boldness, and contradictions, completely captivated me. I fell in love not only with the city itself but with the lifestyle it offers, the pace, the people, the art, and the conversations. I am deeply grateful for the opportunity that was given to me. It helped me grow, pushed me out of my comfort zone, and gave me space to experiment, to learn, and to mature both personally and professionally.

Paris je t’aime!
