Druga strana svega
The Other Side of Everything
Eine versperrte Tür in einer Belgrader Wohnung hat über 70 Jahre lang eine Familie von ihrer Vergangenheit getrennt. Indem die Filmemacherin intensive Gespräche mit ihrer Mutter führt, wird die politische Störungslinie offenbar, die quer durch das Zuhause dieser Familie verläuft und ein ganzes Land betrifft, das von der Geschichte heimgesucht wird. Die Chronik einer einzelnen Familie in Serbien wird zum furiosen Porträt einer Aktivistin in Zeiten großer Umbrüche und stellt Fragen nach der Verantwortung jeder Generation im Kampf um ihre Zukunft.
After exploring, in festival favorite Cinema Komunisto (2011), how the leaders of Yugoslavia used movies to create a national identity, Belgrade-born documentary maker Mila Turajlić mixes the personal and the political to engrossing effect in The Other Side of Every- thing, a combination family memoir and subjective look at the history of Serbia in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. Turajlić's guide to the country's governance after the death of Tito up to the present day is her mother, Srbijanka Turajlić, a renowned pro-democracy activist and former Belgrade University professor.
