Tifusari

A famous poem by Jure Kastelan. The dark- sober drawings of Aleksander Marks. The sound of words. The story of partisans marching through wastelands to home. The respiration, marks of death.

One of animations from 1960 s from East reminding sensibility of period and the trauma of war in heroic- bitter perspective.

For old generations, familiar at whole.

For youngers , maybe clue for understand a time.

The film , like the poem, obstacle against forgetfullness and, obvious, hommage to sacrifice of anonymous heroes.

Useful for many reasons, from artistic expression to message and the atmosphere defining the long way to home , as embroidery of illusions, hope and lucid perspective.
