GRANICA
Ein Film von Eni Brandner
Austria 2009, 6 min, colour, 16:9, stereo
Rissige Mauern und Wände mit Einschlaglöchern, Ruinenteile, Steinhaufen zerstörter Häuser: Noch immer ziehen diese unfreiwilligen Kriegsdenkmale eine Grenze zwischen zwei Kulturen. Während die Kamera daran entlangfährt, breitet sich ein orchestraler Soundteppich mit subtilen Anklängen von Kriegsgetöse aus.
Die Filmaufnahmen wurden 2008 an der Grenzlinie des völkerrechtlich nie anerkannten Gebiets der ehemaligen „Republik Serbische Krajina“ gemacht – nach der „Baumstammrevolution“ einer der Brennpunkte im Jugoslawien-/Kroatienkrieg (1991 – 1995).
Granica, Grenze, Border - dividing line between two religions, two cultures - between majoritarian Serbian respectively Croatian areas. Twelve years after the end of the conflict about the 'Republic of Serbian Krajina' in the Yugoslavian/Croatian war (1991-1995), the traces of altercation are still present.
Delapidated, destroyed houses - partly sitting right next to minefields, or in the middle of townscapes, waiting for their owners - act as unintentional memorials, warding off oblivion. The former inhabitants or their descendants/heirs return only slowly to the area rendered improvident by the Yugoslavian war. What persists are half abandoned villages and scarcely inhabited cities in the hinterland, off the beaten track, which still haven't recovered from the times of war.
Filmed in Zitnic, Drnis, Sibenik and Tepljuh (Croatia) in 2008, in locations around the area of the temporary border of the internationally not recognized'Republic of Serbian Krajina'. After the 'Log Revolution' in August 1990 this area became one of the focal points in the Yugoslavian/Croatian war 1991-1995.
