Thank You for Freedom

1988 · 16 min · Documentary

Documentary that shows the consequences of the Vevčani case, which was, the violent conflict between the residents of the Vevčani settlement and the authorities of the then SR Macedonia. The film shows how the residents reconstruct the conflict during the traditional carnival, i.e. how they ironically compare the partisan victims in the Second World War, to whom they erected a monument with the inscription "Thank you for freedom", with their own fight against the tyrannical government.
