The Uprising in Jazak

The film consists of three basic motives: 1. It is the folk (shown in the film), who carried on war with their own hands, started the change from capitalism to socialism and lived on breaking up the earth. The folk live and they are not upset: they never lived in better conditions. They were witnesses as long as the king ruled over the country, and when he fell, fascism marched over the folk. But they fought and survived, even the Russians came and parted again. The folk are the basis out of which I anticipate the right answer to any crisis. 2. Such a film about a war includes also the social status of its participants - into a dialogue of memories with the real life of today. 3. There should come an end to the cinematographical manipulation of the war subject. The films created in this way are often so privileged, so spectacular and expensive, so strikingly without the participation of the people, that you really lose the conviction that there could ever be made an honest, true and simple film about the Yugoslav war and the Yugoslav revolution. My film shows that we have people who made war and revolution out of their own forces. These folk should be made the main hero of the war and revolution films.
