1717 Kilometrov Poletja 2009

1717 Kilometers of Summer 2009

A small homage to the Balkan Peninsula. Also a Super 8mm record of a summer filled with idiotic excursions, false goals, prodigal waste, disappointed loves, galling personal insufficiencies, half-witted associations, but a rather memorable and pleasant summer nonetheless. Also a road movie, a romance, an experiment, a poem without sense and sensibility, without rhythm and rhyme…
