These films, subversive and optimistic, slightly ironic and never cynical, celebrate life in socialist Yugoslavia while mocking the ideological rigidity of the ruling party. Shot all across Yugoslavia, they represent the best of Yugoslav cinema of the time.
Documenting the colourful lives of national minorities in Vojvodina (a northern province of Serbia), but famously omitting Serbs, the film was banned, accused of undermining Fraternity and Unity, the official unification policy of Yugoslavia.
