TULUM
THE PARTY
Youths enjoying the small town summertime: love, frolics, smoking grass and drinking beer, chilling out on the Danube beach. It could have always been this way. The town however is called Vukovar and the daydream ends with a rude awakening: Ona finds herself at a war cemetery, her friends have vanished, the carefree atmosphere is all of a sudden replaced by a feeling of irreparable loss.
Croatia's contribution to this year's “Semaine de la critique” in Cannes relies upon low-key composition and insightful camera work rather than crude scenes of violence. Thus the film gets to the essence of the individual suffering characteristic of every war.
