The Silence (2021)
Short, Drama, History • 0h 22m
The Silence is the sad legacy of a small country. It accompanied the war years 1939-45 and reigns today, when holocaust deniers are back in parliament. This film was made spontaneously to bring the silent majority to life. Filmmakers, influencers and museums all came together to make a tribute to the last of those who were not silent: today the 92-year-old musician Vlado Strmen who joined the Slovak national uprising with an accordion on his chest. No heroic epics. No drones. No post-production assembly. Just a story about the front we carry inside. And which can appear at any time.
