Description : This piece deals with neighbourhood and relationships between neighbours. The inhabitants of one building vividly comment on the origins and the destiny of the numerous crows that usually gather on the tree in front of the building. Some of them think that the animals have the right to do what they want, some of them are strongly convinced that crows should be immediately chased out of the area. One claims that the crow is an elegant and sophisticated bird, another replies that it is actually the most awful creation of God, and that actually all of them are imported from somewhere on the occasion of the death of a significant communist officer during the seventies. Ultimately this is a funny story on crows, intertwined with lots of assumptions about political conspiracy of communists, which becomes a metaphor for a politically charged narrative of tolerance. The video refers to the scenes in Yugoslav cinematography where politics is mostly discussed within the domestic sphere.
