examines how film making was used in Yugoslavia to shape the national

identity. For Turajlić, the old communist movie studios symbolize

both the beginning and the end of Yugoslavia. According to the

director, she was prompted to document what she found at the Avala

Film Studios because she "...felt both amazement and anger at how

they’ve been forgotten". Built in the 1950s, the studios were one of

the largest in the region, welcoming stars like Sophia Loren, Orson

Welles, and Kirk Douglas. The president of Yugoslavia Josef Broz Tito

was the driving force behind the local film industry. Turajlić gained

access to Tito's private archives and interviewed his personal

projectionist Leka Konstantinovic.
