Beautiful Lovely People (Lijepi i dragi ljudi)

Igor Mirković

Beautiful Lovely People

In a small town in a small country, a local photographer has a big idea: at the turn of the millennium, in order to make a record of his contemporaries, he will photograph as many of them as possible. His Millennium Photography project grows beyond all expectations as hundreds of thousands of people pose for his camera. Following his actions, we become familiar with his subjects: they are the final generation of analog people, living in small towns on the outskirts of Europe. Perplexed by the rapid acceleration of technological progress, they anticipate the coming of a world they don't understand, struggling to preserve their way of living.
