Synopsis

A “road movie” to the past: two buses, two journeys, two final destinations, two opposing ideologies. The first bus carrying “the victors” on their way to commemorate and celebrate Tito’s birthday at this birthplace, the second transporting the elderly and “defeated”, as well as some young idealists, to the place of the World War II massacre at Bleiburg. But to the filmmaker Goran Dević, an outsider and observer, it was much more than that: “I was struck by the dramatic and emotional “sameness” of what was going on around me.”
