Art-house Interpretation of archive footage
abcmcgin18 August 2013
Saw this at the Sarajevo film festival and was not blown away. It reminded me of watching archive footage at a museum while a Lefty hipster tells me about how good it was back in the Socialist days.

She made some interesting points about the links between working bodies and the state but her unenthusiastic tone didn't engage me.

The opening scene was interesting as it linked her into the story but that was all we saw of her, more of these videos of her linked to the changing face of Yugoslavia would have hooked in the audience more.

I agree that it needed narration otherwise it's just archive footage but it could have shown more emotion and not been art-house sterile, even at the point when she is supposed to be angry, you can't feel it.
