Can't sleep still steaming...
Director
of a pretty famous movie from Slovenia came to London, had questions and
answers session and said we lived like in Northern Korea 20 years ago. Beside
everything good that happened in our country, people stood up, fought against
Nazis, when many other nations bowed down in front of them, before 1950 stood
up again, we are a country that is not communism and not capitalism we will
invent our own economic system, a country which at the end of 1945 was left with
more or less nothing, but was able to develop pretty well with the
preconditions it had. Well no, he wouldn’t mention any of that. In Britain we
are considered an unimportant and unknown country. Eastern Europe is not posh and
not the most respected, and yes we are not central Europe but eastern for our British
friends. And there he comes, someone who is really good at his craft of making
movies and says the same: well yeah, we have just been Northern Korea. If I was
an investor for that movie from Slovenia, I would want my money back.
