Focus Years: 2006 | Country: Yugoslavia
Synopsis:
Once removed from his primordial surroundings, a man doesn’t stop longing for them. In order to preserve these relations, our hero persistently repeats performing a ritual of his own, full of strong primeval symbolism. He leaves a place of urban living, and takes a steep narrow path through the rocks to reach the dead village high up in the mountains, abandoned long ago. There, amidst scattered remnants of former houses, on the hearth of his ancestors, he always makes a fire. The roof emanates thin, blue patches of smoke, and the smoke means: hearth, fire, family, life.... Alone as the last man on Earth, surrounded only by the elements (air, water, earth, fire), the hero sends the message that life still exists where it doesn’t exist any more….
