Over the Threshold

The factory for the production of electrical transformers “Minel – Ripanj” was built in the Belgrade settlement Ripanj in 1953. For the needs of Minel’s worker, in 1959 the Colony neighbourhood was built near the factory. Around 300 people live there today. My grandfather, who is like a ghost, walks with me through the premises where he once worked.

In a weathered house among dense rows of trees, an elderly couple spends their days in peace. The approaching storm signals the presence of a young man whose arrival they have been expecting.
