Cat's Cry (Serbian: Mačji krik) is a drama film, directed by Sanja Živković and released in 2024. A coproduction of companies from Serbia, Canada and Croatia, the film stars Jasmin Geljo as Stamen, a man living in a small town in Serbia who must fight for custody of his granddaughter when she is rejected by her mother after being diagnosed with cri du chat syndrome.
The cast also includes Andrijana Đorđević, Sanja Mikitišin, Marija Škaričić, Denis Murić, Sergej Trifunović and Srđan Miletić.
The screenplay was written by influential Serbian filmmaker Goran Paskaljević and collaborator Đorđe Sibinović, with Živković stepping in as director after Paskaljević died before the film entered production. It was shot in fall 2023, in and around the Serbian city of Požarevac.
The film premiered at the 2024 Vancouver International Film Festival, where Živković received an honorable mention for the Emerging Canadian Director award.
