Film Profile

Lucky Child

Srijetno dijete / Lucky Child

During the eighties a fantastically popular music scene was born on the streets of the otherwise gray and sleepy Zagreb. The filmmaker recalls it all from his boyhood years. Twenty-five years on he realizes that the period was critical in creating his personality. He travels from Zagreb to Ljubljana, Vienna, Belgrade, Budapest, Paris,
Utrecht, and New York in search of the heroes of his youth. He seeks to put together a story combining punkrock and decaying socialism in order to understand his roots.
