Territory of Imagination (Územie fantázie)
Director: Paula Maľárová
The film explores the representation of war in a territory of long-lasting peace. On the background of mass events, which primarily serve as a necessary reminder of a history, but look more like bizarre celebrations of war, we play with the viewer the imaginary Telephone Game, where the concept of war changes with variations across generations. War, as a permanent exhibition in the museum of our society.
Production: CinePunkt (SK), Radio and Television Slovakia (SK)
