Here and There, a narrative feature film produced by Vladan Nikolic, associate professor in Media Studies and Film, was awarded Best New York Narrative Award in the 2009 Tribeca Film Festival's World Narrative Features Competition.

The film, directed by Darko Lungulov and starring Cyndi Lauper, David Thornton, Mirjana Karanovic, and Branislav Trifunovic, follows two interconnected stories on two continents. Robert, a depressed New Yorker, tries to make quick cash and ends up in chaotic Serbia, where instead of money he finds his soul. At the same time, a young Serbian immigrant, Branko, struggles in an unforgiving New York, desperately trying to bring his girlfriend from Serbia to the United States.

Professor Nikolic's previous films include CUT, The End of the Millennium, Serendipity, Burn, Going Under, and Love, which won the Young Jury Award in Geneva, Switzerland and was released theatrically to critical acclaim.
