Feel for the Wind is about the power of poetry, about the wind, and about what lies outside our control. It is a poetic portrait of Prekmurje, through the masterful words of the Prekmurje poets Feri Lainček and Dušan Šarotar, interpreted on film by a Bela Krajina native Maja Weiss. In 2004, the publisher Franc-Franc issued a book called Feel for the Wind, which is a unique spiritual monograph of Prekmurje and, at the same time, part of a wider artistic project. The authors envisaged the project as an artistic journey following the feel for the wind, which is understood as a metaphor for silence, for mystery, for that complete otherness.
