The routine of their outsider’s survival is disturbed by anoffer to make a reunion of their one-time cult punk band and play at some bizarre “multi-cultural-happening”,which is to prove the false image of FYROM as a land with relaxed ethnic tensions.This is the first FYROM film treating the problem of increasing nationalism in the country.The film is conceived as a black comedy, somewhere in the limbo-space between road-movie and drama. It isalso supposed to be very documentaristic, a “cinema-verite” feature attempt, and therefore extremely lowbudget, not just as a production model, but even more as an aesthetic approach.Director’s filmography:The Mistery of Wagner’s Tuba, 2009, docDozen Tales About Wine, 2002, docThe Chinese Market, 2001, docContact Person:Darko PopovPank Film:M. +389 78255 867, +389 71255 864daropopov@gmail.comThe Revolution Boulevard, 199276
