Based on a song by Iztok Mlakar, this animated film follows a peasant couple from their wedding to their death. Throughout their life, the wife secretly serves her husband chicory instead of real coffee — a lie he never uncovers. A tender story about love, deception, and how we often fail to express affection until it’s too late.
A satire reflecting Europe’s political tensions through the relationships of neighbouring cats. In Catlands, a union of diverse feline territories, the peace is shattered by newcomers crossing borders. The local elites devise a clever plan to restore order — at the expense of a few innocent victims.
Role of a man is replaced by a cat and the religious tyranny. We follow a day of one of the humans and the process of the hegemony.
