And Poetry is Created

Aljosa Zerjal is a film amateur from Trieste and is well known in his circles. It can be said he is a veteran. Fifty years ago, he started with a 8mm camera, while today, he would never be separated from his digital camera. Zerjal is one of those curious and attentive people who are always observing the world. His camera has captured a variety of themes, from the Slovenian emigrants' cultural societies' events to fishermen in Vietnam, from pilgrims in Mexico to Tibetan temples. His films weave poetry about humanity, its history, culture and uniqueness.
