Yugoslavia 2000 34
A group of people spent the war in a house in Belgrade. During the air raids, they made a documentary about themselves and their friends. A state of war was introduced in Yugoslavia in March 1999 and the NATO air strikes began. Radio Station B92 was raided and all its equipment seized. A pro-governement management was simposed, but none of the 170 staff members agreed to work under these conditions. Filming in the streets was forbidden. This film was made by the crew of B92, the radio station which was not meant to exist. It was shot in the rooms, the kitchen, the basement and the gardens of one house. This is a wartime diary of a group consisting of close friends, colleagues, lovers, relatives and pets.
