Nobody Said I Have to Love You (short feature film)

The short film Nihče ni rekel, da te moram imeti rad (“Nobody Said I Have To Love You”) was the first student film in the history of the Academy of Theatre, Radio, Film and Television of the University of Ljubljana to be included in the Cinéfondation selection, part of the official programme of the Cannes Film Festival. This is a remarkable international success, given that a total of 1,952 works were submitted by film schools all over the world, of which the jury selected just 17 to include in the programme.  

Matjaž Jamnik has completed a degree in film and television directing. His film "Nihče ni rekel, da te moram imeti rad" scored a number of significant international festival successes in 2019 and 2020.  

Gaja Naja Rojec has completed a degree in film and television cinematography. As director of photography on "Nihče ni rekel, da te moram imeti rad", she created a convincing look for the film that perfectly complements its exquisite dramaturgy.  

Kristian Božak Kavčič has completed a bachelor’s degree in film and television editing. His well-considered editing work on "Nihče ni rekel, da te moram imeti rad" contributed significantly to our understanding of this story about family relationships.
