What The Beatles mean for global popular culture is what “Bijelo Dugme” means for Eastern Europe. “Bjelo Dugme” (White Button) was the most famous rock and roll stars of the 20th century in Eastern Europe. This documentary film delves into the effects Western popular culture had on a very particular communist country - this being the former Yugoslavia. Rock and Roll was accepted on a massive scale thanks to them. An epic story of sex, drugs, rock and roll and of course, the politics of the last 15 years of Yugoslavia.
Director, writer and producer born in 1971, studied film and TV directing in Belgrade and New York (1994 - 2000). In recent years he devoted his time exclusively to documentary films and directed three feature-length documentaries.
