Parada

Volt már erről szó....




Srdjan Dragojevic's The Parade Srdjan Dragojevic's black comedy Parada / The Parade has become the biggest box-office hit "in the former Yugoslavia in years," according to an Associated Press report. The film has sold more than 500,000 tickets and has been "equally acclaimed in Serbia, Croatia and Bosnia," where it's supposed to have been seen by more people than James Cameron's Avatar. In Dragojevic's Belgrade-set film, a Serbian anti-gay former gangster/war veteran (Nikola Kojo) recruits former fighters from other ethnic/national factions to protect a local gay couple (Milos Samolov, Goran Jevtic) attempting to organize a gay pride parade. As per The Guardian, at Belgrade's 2010 Gay Pride Parade, 5,000 police officers had to guard 1,000 marchers pelted by rocks and fire bombs. (Scenes shot at that parade are featured in the film.) On the surface, The Parade seems to have very little in common with Angelina Jolie's In the Land of Blood and Honey. »

We saw it with Manyus, in my all-time favourite movie theater, and there was some moment of reflections, too.
