At the Astra Film Festival, held from 15th to 21st October 2018, Nebojša Slijepčević won the AFF Award for Best Director in the Central & Eastern Europe Competitionfor his work on 'Srbenka'. The program's jury comprised of Dina Iordanova (UK), Cristian Tudor Popescu (Romania) i Simon Kilmurry (USA) explained their decision with the statement: "In ‘Srbenka’ we experience rehearsals that bring the audience into an intimate and at times uncomfortably raw and painful emotional space, exploring wounds that will not heal unless they are confronted with honesty. Nebojsa Slijepcevic skillfully explores the artistic process as a method for communal healing and shows that truth and reconciliation are tools that can bring closure."
