The Eighth Küstendorf International Film and Music Festival was held on 21-26 January 2015 in Drvengrad in Mokra Gora. It was organized by Rasta International, under the auspices of the Ministry of Culture and Information of the Republic of Serbia, the Town of Mećavnik and TNSO. As in the previous years, the festival was dedicated to future filmmakers and giants of contemporary auteur film.

This year Mećavnik hosted many celebrities such as Russian director Andrei Konchalovsky, Oscar winner Alfonso Cuarón, the famous Nikita Mikhalkov, French director Bertrand Tavernier, the director of the Cannes festival, Thierry Frémaux, and other prominent guests from the world of film.

Shown in the competition program were 17 films from all parts of the world. Midnight at Küstendorf was reserved for music. Moldavian trumpet player Adam Stinga, blues guitarist Ana Popović, the band Partibrejkers and the Romanian orchestra Taraf de Haïdouks all had their performances.

The Wonder Strings Quartet was in charge of the music in between the film showings and workshops. In the magical, bohemian atmosphere of the Damned Yard café the guests were able to enjoy the amazing sounds of the band reinforced by Sale R.’s percussions. This was an opportunity for the Quartet to present its diverse repertoire and energy so the Festival guests were overjoyed. The third day of the Festival was reserved for a ceremonious lunch in Andrićgrad where the Wonder girls played for some of the currently most renowned people from the world of film such as Nikita Mikhalkov, Alfonso Cuarón, Bertrand Tavernier, Bahman Ghobadi, Warwick Thornton, producer Alex Garcia and others. It is interesting to note that the Wonder Strings Quartet also performed instead of the Partibrejkers band who had to cancel their concert, so the girls had the honour to perform in the main part of the program on the big stage.
