Production house Bela Film was founded in 1998 by Maja and Ida Weiss.
It’s one of the Slovenian most profiled film production companies, predominantly home of art house feature films, creative documentaries and artistic shorts. We are aiming at socially and personally relevant content and stories, and we seek to collaborate with authors with a recognizable way of storytelling, who show genuine motivation and passion for their projects. We value careful preparation and development of film projects and focus on building international connections.
Why the name Bela film?
In German, Weiss means white which symbolizes perfection and positiveness and is most often seen as the symbol of perpetuity and absoluteness. It is the nothingness that everything can evolve from.
White Carniola (Bela krajina in Slovene) is a small, remote region in southeastern Slovenia where we, Ida and Maja Weiss, grew up. It is one of the most beautiful and untouched areas of Slovenia, known for its stunning landscapes and the hospitality of its people.
