Difficult but great

'I Am From Titov Veles' was a huge hit at the Berlin festival, one of the best films there. I like the fact that this movie got many people curious about Macedonia. This is what Macedonian films should be like: they should tell the world our story. It's difficult and requires full attention, showing the struggle between attempts for normal life and idealism in today's transitional society in the Balkans (the main character could even be compared to a Hamlet of some kind), but it's a pleasure to watch it. However, expect negative and non-objective comments and reviews from people who won't like seeing and hearing some historical facts in this movie. It does send an optimistic message in the end though. A message that we should all take seriously, especially in these moments.
