June Turmoil

The only document of student demonstrations in Belgrade in June 1968 was shot for the most part in the court of Kapetan Misino Zdanje (the Faculty of Philosophy building). The famous actor Stevo Zigon declaims, in front of an immense crowd, Robespierre's monologue from Georg Büchner's Danton's Death. Zelimir Zilnik turns from an observer into a participant of History, and not its director. (Mar del Plata International Film Festival)
