About the Event
Enjoy watching Whose is this Song? anytime Saturday and Sunday, October 22-23 at the 17th Annual Macedonian Film Festival!
In Director, Adela Peeva's search for the true origins of a haunting melody, the filmmaker travels
to Turkey, Greece, Macedonia, Albania, Bosnia, Serbia and Bulgaria. The trip
is filled with humour, suspense, tragedy and surprise as each country's
citizens passionately claim the song to be their own and can even furnish
elaborate histories for its origins. The tune emerges again and again in
different forms: as a love song, a religious hymn, a revolutionary anthem, and
even a military march. The powerful emotions and stubborn nationalism
raised by one song seem at times comical, and other times, eerily telling. In a
region besieged by ethnic hatred and war, what begins as a light-hearted
investigation ends as a sociological and historical exploration of the deep
misunderstandings between the people of the Balkans.
