Don’t Forget to Breathe pulls us into a story of two young brothers that find themselves at a turning point. The reason why the director Martin Turk ventured into the youth film genre was to take a story for youngsters to a higher level and make it an auteur film. This was a successful attempt. In many aspects of filmmaking, Don’t Forget to Breathe is a perfectly complete film which the jury had no trouble recognising as the best film in this year’s selection of feature-length fiction films.
The cinematographer paints the remote countryside, where the protagonists are growing up, in subdued colours, and it is precisely their unobtrusiveness that subtly highlights the fierce yet repressed emotions of the main character and the delicate attachments that are growing and being torn between the brothers. All that remains unsaid but is gnawing at the protagonist, triggering his outbursts, can not only be deciphered but quite literally felt through the details of the sunlit, lush yet taciturn nature.

hrvaško: Jedan od rijetkih projekata koji je na ovom roku priložio video da bi preciznije dočarao vizualni identitet budućeg
filma. To se pokazalo kao veliki plus za “Ne zaboravi disati“, iako je scenarij ionako već imao vrlo dobro postavljene likove
i situaciju, dvojicu bliske braće tenisača u trenutku kad se stariji, 18-godišnjak, zaljubi u jednu ljepoticu, što mijenja
život mlađem, 15-godišnjaku. U tom scenariju bilo je vidljivo kako Martin Turk delikatno prilazi najosjetljivijem razdoblju
života, onom formativnom tinejdžerskom kad se mladi ljudi naglo upoznavaju s dotad nepoznatim emocijama i životom samim,
svijetom koji ide naprijed s njima ili bez njih, te od prevelike količine uzbuđenja zaboravljaju disati. Priloženi videoklipovi vizualiziraju atmosferu, rad s glumcima i paletu boja, sugerirajući kako bi “Ne zaboravi disati“ mogao biti regionalni odgovor na izvrsne filmove o odrastanju kao što su “Povratak“, “Mean Creek“ i “Mud“, Turkove glavne uzore.
