, last week in the Bela Krajina region of Southern Slovenia.

The film focuses on fifteen-year-old Klemen, who lives with his older brother Peter and single mother in a small remote rural town. Klemen's well-established routine of spending time with his beloved brother on the tennis court and by the nearby river gets interrupted by Peter's sudden and passionate love affair with the gorgeous Sonja, which triggers a torrent of conflicting emotions and reckless actions in Klemen.

)is in charge of the film’s original score. 

"Don't Forget to Breathe is an intimate and atmospheric drama about growing up, jealousy, first love, and strong emotions that one is often overcome with during this period of life," says Turk. "As a screenwriter and director, I want to relive this important time and the formative feelings we were all familiar with once, but that we have since forgotten in the haste of our daily lives, even though they have shaped our personalities decisively." 

The film is being produced by Slovenia's Bela Film in co-production with Quasar (Italy), Studio Dim (Croatia), RTV Slovenija and RAI Cinema (Italy), with backing from the Slovenian Film Centre, FVG Audiovisual Fund, Croatian Audiovisual Centre, Creative Europe - MEDIA programme, RE-ACT development scheme and with the technical support of Viba Film. International sales are being handled by the Italian outfit Intramovies.
