Slobodan Šijan (Serbian Cyrillic: Слободан Шијан, pronounced [slɔbɔ̌dan ʃîjaːn]; born November 16, 1946) is a Serbian film director.

Biography[edit]

Šijan was born in Belgrade, Yugoslavia. He graduated from the Fine Arts Academy in Belgrade, and then enrolled in Belgrade's Academy of Theater Faculty of Dramatic Arts in 1970.[1] He directed a number of television films as well as experimental and short films during the 1970s.[1] From 1976 to 1979, he published a series of fanzines which according to him were made "out of frustration" in between his experimentation and attempts to break into professional cinema.[1]

His first full-length feature Ko to tamo peva, directed in collaboration with writer Dušan Kovačević and cinematographer Božidar Nikolić, was released in 1980 and became a box-office hit.[2][3] 1982's Maratonci trče počasni krug, also achieved considerable commercial success.[4]

Over the coming years Šijan directed two more notable films - Kako sam sistematski uništen od idiota and Davitelj protiv davitelja.[3]

In 2021, he was selected the Friend of Slovenian Cinema at the 2021 Festival of Slovenian Film.[5]
