This is my first comment on a movie and this movie's first comment. In this rockumentary we see Igor Mirkovic, actually a political journalist, documenting the new wave of rock/punk music in ex-Yugoslavia which took place at the end of the 70's and the beginning of the 80's. This revolution had great significance in Croatia and the rest of Yugoslav countries as perhaps the appearance of The Beatles or The Rolling Stones in the UK. This movie probably won't be of any interest to you if you haven't heard some of the bands this movie is all about (Azra, Film, Prljavo Kazaliste, Haustor...). Mirkovic interviews his teenage idols and describes how they influenced his generation while adding archive footage from concerts and historical events. Sretno dijete (The Happy Child) is actually a title of a Prljavo Kazaliste's song. The DVD has some bonus material in the shape of interviews, discarded scenes and music videos from Azra, Haustor, Prljavo Kazaliste, Elektricni Orgazam and Idoli. A must see!...
