THE ECLIPSE
Meet The East
On 11 August 1999, while the rest of the world was celebrating a solar eclipse, a large portion of the Serbian population retreated to their homes and bunkers in fear of the moon's shadow. In this essay-style documentary film, the director approaches this moment as a metaphor for the nation's unresolved crisis of conscience, while grappling with Serbia's war crimes and the sustained echo of past atrocities.
