Vlatko Gilić (born 1 January 1935 in Podgorica, Montenegro, then Yugoslavia) is a Yugoslav director and writer whose work spans documentary and fiction and is closely associated with formally rigorous, philosophically inflected cinema of the late 1960s and 1970s. Between 1966 and 1980 he directed thirteen films—eleven shorts and two features—earning international recognition including a Silver Bear at the Berlin International Film Festival and the Grand Prix at Oberhausen. Gilić’s films are marked by a slow, observational style that blends documentary material with allegory, ritual, and metaphysical inquiry.
