Through clips from more than 60 forgotten Yugoslav films, exclusive interviews and archive footage from the shooting and Tito’s private screenings, an image of Yugoslavia comes together – the official one, seen on the screen, and the one hidden behind the curtains. The film explores the myths that backed Yugoslavia and the way fiction split away from reality all until the final collapse. In this elegantly structures memory machine, the story is told by Tito’s personal cinema operator for 32 years Leka Konstantinović, Tito’s favourite director Veljko Bulajić, the greatest Yugoslav film star Bata Živojinović, Orson Welles, Yul Brynner, Richard Burton etc.
