It was meant to be a holiday trip to Belgrade for Brice Taton and his friends to support their football team Toulouse playing against Partizan, but it ended with his murder. Unaware of the climate of lynch 72 hours prior the Belgrade Gay Pride 2009, Brice and his friends were enjoying the afternoon in a public café when they were attacked by a gang of right wing hooligans.
Brice was thrown of a 10 meter high staircase and died shortly afterwards. Brice's friend Philippe Maury is back to Belgrade a year later to unveil a deep rooted culture of post-Milosevic era violence and corruption behind Serbian hooliganism.
Subject: Turbo folk music and ex-Yugoslavs in Germany
Director: Milan Miletic and Marija Bozinovska Jones
Producers: Michael Truckenbrodt and Milan Miletic
Length/ Format: 58', XDCamHD
The extravagant turbo folk music genre is more than just a hugely successful mixture of Balkan folk and electro beat. Turbo folk is a prime symbol of post war Balkans where kitsch music, beautiful women with a liking for easy cash and war lords turned businessmen converge, fostering a one of a kind music scene to the delight of a euphoric fan base from former Yugoslavia.
The exceptional story of survival of the scantily clad young female turbo folk performers is intertwined with the deeply personal stories of ethnically mixed Yugo (ex Yugoslav) fans of all age and ethnic background, who once fought each other in the recent Yugoslav wars, now re-united in their new "homeland" Germany. It is during the highly exuberant and emotional turbo folk performances that the overwhelming desire to escape in nostalgia for a shared country long gone becomes vividly apparent.
