One warm summer evening 2008th The Lejla A. Together with her husband arrived in Banja Luka and the entrance to the discotheque, "Puerto Rico" view of her encounters with a view monitors Michael.Lejla recognize those eyes, and soon to be with him embarking on a wild sadomasochistic sexual relationship, unable to resist his own dark secrets: Fifteen years earlier, when he fired the passion between them, she was a detainee camp Trnopolje, a bouncer Michael - Serbian officer.
In one of the most intriguing scene in the movie, once upon detainees Layla, dressed only in pants and Serbian military officers' sapko, dancing in front of ancient Chetnik Mihajlo and sensual voice, he sings a song of Dragana Mirkovic "Much have I wished, from sadness to ill ...".
Something like that is going - or not going, anyway - the action is already controversial film Angelina Jolie, work called "The Bosnian love story without a title, which was well before the filming even began floods caused anger on both banks of the Drina. Anyway, I say, so goes the story somehow, or not going because of all they had about the movie so far voiced anger - and reacted angrily to anyone who asked and not all - just no one has read the script. It is not for no purpose, because it transpired, a Balkan pročuvenje is the only medium faster than broadband.
The first is the co-producer of the film spoke untried Zeljko Mitrovic, who was three months ago, publicly refused to participate in the project as "the Serbian people puts a negative connotation" and "for the umpteenth time in a bad light," because apparently the story of love, raped Muslim women and her rapist, clearly, the Serbian soldiers. "I know that co-operation with it opens the door of the film business, but do not want to be part of something for the umpteenth time is eternal Serbs as bad guys," said the king of Balkan Trash, by enrolling in the patriots as a hero who is rejected because Serbia Angelina Jolie.
Mitrović synopsis of the relationship raped Muslim women and her rapist was enough to tell a dozen times went into the Balkans: the rumors about Angelina's film were disseminated to the pub to pub, everyone has added something of his script, and before filming even began, but Bosnia completed the script that starts a brutal rape scene and cut the breast, written servile role of a Bosniak who teaches her heart drunken Chetniks, and filmed the movie now, you see, "raped Muslim women puts a negative connotation."
"Before my eyes out of my picture, but rapists and other women from the Association. This is our life trauma, not a romantic obsession," said the "liberation" the president of the Association "Women-Victims of War" Hasecic. "The scenario we, the victims are shown in such a way as to have voluntarily consented to the rape. Of course we will boycott the film because it was Angelina caused tremendous pain and returned to us in 1992.."
The role of the Bosnian Zeljko Mitrovic and rare patriotic honor to refuse to Angelina Jolie in Bosnia was accepted by the Federal Culture Minister Gavrilo Grahovac, signing the ban on shooting in the territory of the Federation. "Angelina Jolie will get permission to film if the script we provide," explained Minister Grahovac. Is the reason, therefore, only an administrative nature? Not really: minister interested in the script, because it is a "story that has nothing to do with the actual events of the war."If, however, by Angeline only required to submit his script, then how can the Minister Grahovac knows that it is a "story that has nothing to do with the actual events of the war"? I do not know, of course, but to say "people who read the script."
"People who have read the script say it is a story that has nothing to do with the actual events of the war," he explained so Grahovac, regretting that "the authorities of Bosnia and Herzegovina will not be able to prevent that from ever making a film that offends so many victims."
In short, the script of the film Angelina Jolie no one alive has not been seen or read, but anyway here is never which is not competent to talk if before it knew anything about it. Knowledge burdens, ignorance releases, facts bother theses. In Bosnia, probably has not taken a single movie about the bazaar which had a clear stance before the screenplay idea. Under the same charges of "putting a negative connotation," were attacked here because of my films and Ahmed Imamovic and Jasmila Zbanic. In all shouting about the film, which has no title, and already has strict reviews, it is not, however, has heard the key issue. A key question is: "So what?"
So what, in fact, if the movie really about the love story of a woman who falls in love with her rapist, so what if the movie Bosniak really unlucky in love in a drunken, smelly Chetniks, so what if the movie begins a brutal scene cuts breast Chetnik knife? Since this is, in fact, the colleges learned that the film has "the Serbian people to put a positive connotation" and "pose in a beautiful light," since this movie has to do any of the people present in a good light? And for that to dramaturgical and scripting canons film must "have nothing to do with the actual events of war"? The film, however, only has to be - good.
Angelina's film can turn out good or bad, brilliant or rubbish, and can turn out frothy, and exploitation and pathetic, and moralistic and morally dubious, can really "the Serbian people show up in a bad light" and as "to offend so many casualties" among Muslim women raped, But above all, following the logic of cinematic art in the narrow sense, it must be - taken. The task of art is not, as in the Balkans just think pink and playboy, and the Association of Women Victims of War, and the ministers of culture, that is undergoing the reality - of those things invented by man reality show - but the questions and where it is thinnest. And the reality is, unlike art, thin, relative and elusive: only in Bosnia there are three.
After all, the film scenario in which the former detainees Lejla A. thirteen years after the war ended in Banja Luka disco meets marshals Michael, the former Serbian officers, and restores him devilish link from the camp - half naked singing his song Dragana Mirkovic "Much have I wished" - taken back in 1974th year. Just as the former detainees is called Layla, but Lucia, and even he was not Michael, Max already, and have not met in Banja Luka clubs, but in the Vienna hotel. And that was not the 2008th, but 1958th, he was not a former Serbian army officer, rather than German, but did she danced under the Serbian sapko, but under the umbrella of the SS officers, and not half naked singing "Much have I wished" Dragana Mirkovic, but "Wenn ich peace was Wünschen Dürfte" - "If I could wish for something''- Marlene Dietrich. The film is called" Night Porter ", a director was Liliana Cavani. Such stories presumably can be recorded only by women.
The time was recorded during the war seksualnooslobodilačkog seventies - a nice coincidence that Jon Voight and Marcheline Bertrand Angelina made a small almost the same day as the "Night Porter" appeared in American cinema - the film is due to their brave entry into the taboo area, dark passions of the victims of concentration camps and Nazi executioner, has sparked anger the planet. True, there was a problem then the Germans, "presented in a bad light," because the Germans and then the "bad light" has already been used, and very good at recognizing things to him. Problem is, clearly, was that the order is to say, "people who have seen the film claimed that it was a story that has nothing to do with the actual events of the war."
Much time has passed since then, and has long been a quiet echo of the anger that greeted Liliana Cavani. Whatever the film Angelina Jolie - and that we, contrary uzusima Balkan film critics, however, to find out only when the record - so far they only anger the unanimously shared. According to reliable information "of people who read the script," we know, namely, that the film Angelina Jolie speaks exclusively and only on us, which examines what art should be just as examiner-electric telephone installations. To us, "appears in a good light," and that "has to do with real events."
