The Eclipse

Natasa Urban / 2022 / 110 min / Serbian/ Romanian.

On August 11, 1999, while the world celebrated, most of Serbia’s population barricaded themselves in their homes and nuclear bunkers, in fear of the lunar shadow.

Using this event as a metaphor for nation’s unclean conscience about the consequences of its political choices, in this essay documentary I confront my country’s wartime and criminal past, and the evil that is still on the loose today.

The Director Natasa Urban will be attending the screening.
