Documentary        
Slovakia / 2005 /
After WW2, the Krnáč family moved from Central Slovakia to Sub–Carpathian Russia. Later, under the Khrushchev decrees, it was forcibly transferred to a village in the middle of the Kazakhstan steps. Following the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the Krnáč sisters and their families decided to return to their parents' homeland, a country which they believed to be so clean that it was devoid of flies. According to family legend it was a wealthy land of opportunity. They left Kazakhstan and full of ideals arrived in Slovakia, where they not only found flies, but also poverty and unemployment. After a while, they found work and their children started going to school. However, they remained disenchanted and homesick for the country where they had spent their entire lives. Their father Dimitrij then took a trip to Kazakhstan, but even here he noticed major changes and growing poverty, which convinced him that the decision to move to Slovakia was correct; his inner peace was not restored, however. Jaroslav Vojtek's engaging documentary allows the audience the opportunity to confront standards of living in two post–Communist countries. It is also a sensitive examination of Dimitrij, whose face reflects the soul of a person uprooted from his homeland, unable to find harmony because he will forever be a foreigner, no matter where he lays his head. Not only a thrilling journey to rediscover the meaning of life, it also a deep contemplation of the importance that concepts such as homeland, nature, family, memory and the past play in an individual's life.

二次世界大戰以後，Krnáč家從斯洛伐克的中央地區搬到了客爾巴阡山脈腳下的蘇聯。不久，在赫魯雪夫的法令下，他們又被強制搬遷到哈薩克斯坦中部的鄉村。但在蘇聯解體後，Krnáč姐妹和她們的家庭決定返回她們父母的家鄉，一個她們認為乾淨的連蒼蠅都沒有的國度。依照家族的傳說，那是一個富饒的國度。他們滿懷憧憬的離開哈薩克斯坦來到了斯洛伐克，在那裏他們不僅發現了很多蒼蠅，還發現了貧窮和失業。一段時間以後，他麼找到了工作，孩子們也開始上學了，但是他們還是想念他們度過一生的國家。他們的父親Dimitrij不久後回哈薩克斯坦看了一次。但即使在那裏，他也注意到一些主要的變化和日漸增長的貧窮，這些讓他相信他搬到斯洛伐克的決定是正確的，但他內心的平靜並沒有恢復。Jaroslav Vojtek's富有魅力的紀錄片讓觀眾有機會面對兩個後社會主義國家的生活狀態。這也是對Dimitrij的一個考察，一個游離在異鄉，永遠找不到內心的平衡的人，因為不論身在何處，他永遠是一個外國人。不僅是一個讓你發現生活意義的讓人戰慄的旅程，也是一個對家鄉、種族、家庭個人生命中過去經歷的深思。

Serbie / 2006 /

 

There are 600 squatter settlements in Serbia, the inhabitants of which are mostly of Roma origin. Of these, 105 are in Belgrade with seventeen more in New Belgrade. Here, Ivana Todorovic documents the life of the Stankovic family who migrated from Southern Serbia in search of better opportunities. Provided with few social services, their living conditions are rough and the children work to help support their family. An intimate window into Serbian Roma culture, the documentary sheds light on the intricacies of Roma customs and their amalgamation of cultural influences - from Roma and Serbian culture to Hispanic pop-culture. Remarkably resilient, funny and optimistic, the children speak openly about their hopes and dreams, including educational opportunities from which they are often excluded. Charming and informative, the documentary brings an alternative and very human view of the often-beleaguered and impoverished Roma.

 塞爾維亞大約有600個貧民窟，裏面的居民大部分都是羅馬裔。這裏面有105個在貝爾格萊德，17個或更多在新貝爾格萊德。Ivana Todorovic記錄了來自來自塞爾維亞南部的Stankovic一家的生活，他們來到這裏是為了尋找更好的生活。沒有享受任何社會福利，他們的生存狀態很差，連他們的孩子都要為了支撐家庭而努力工作。這個影片是通向塞爾維亞羅馬文化的一扇隱秘窗戶，並顯露了羅馬文化錯綜複雜的習俗，及其它文化對它的影響，從羅馬和塞爾維亞文化到西班牙的流行文化。這種混合文化富有彈性，很有趣，並且很樂觀，孩子們大方的談論著他們的希望和夢想，包括對教育的期待，而教育一般是他們不能享受到的。紀錄片富有魅力並且視野開闊。

Young Mikes lives near the Prague intersection at Andel in a building populated with people in similar dire straits. At present he is trying to break free of his former lifestyle. To this end he hooks up with a nice neighbor named Jana, who may represent for him a way into the world of normal people. But his friend Lukas and girlfriend Kaja drag him back to drugs and theft. On a trip to South Africa, he and Kaja succeed in making a new drug. When he returns home everyone forces the resistant Mikes to try and recreate the lucky experiment once more. The drug made by mixing certain ingredients with the couple's love, pain and envy, of course brings happiness to no one. In the end, however, Mikes gets one more chance at life, though there is no guarantee that he'll be able to take advantage of it. This low-budget psychological drama with mystical elements was shot chronologically on digital video, using a skeleton crew. The resulting visual effect was created when the film was copied onto 35 mm film.

 年輕的Mike住在Andel布拉格十字路口的一個建築裏，這裏面都是生活非常窘迫的人，他現在正努力的擺脫以前的生活狀態。為了這個目的，他迷住了一個叫Jana的生活不錯的鄰居，一個他看來代表了通向正常生活道路的人。但是他的朋友Luka和他的女朋友Kaja卻不停的把他往毒品和偷竊上拽。每天他回家每個人都要強迫Mikes嘗試一個“幸運試驗”。這種毒品是用特定的原料和夫妻的愛、痛苦和嫉妒做成的，並且當然不能為任何人帶來幸福。但是Mikes得到了一次機會，因為沒有看守他可以好好利用這個機會。
這個帶有神秘因素的低成本心理實驗劇在數位影像中以年代順序排列，使用同一班人員。最後我們看到的視覺效果是電影被拷貝在35毫米膠片上時形成的。
