Poetry and Revolution

In the days of the student strike of 1971, a group of film students led by directors Branko Ivanda and Zoran Tadić started to cover the events with their cameras. After the strike was suppressed and the leaders arrested and sentenced, the footage was “filed away” by police.

Thirty years after the events, FACTUM recovered a part of the original footage and Branko Ivanda finished the film which portrays the events that marked not only the lives of its participants but also Croatia as a nation.
