Fragile Identity

Zuzana Piussi / Slovakia / 2012 / World Premiere / 75 min.


synopsis

Director Zuzana Piussi explores the sources of contemporary Slovaks’ national pride. Where they lack great historical power in the past, people define themselves in opposition to surrounding nations and try to find heroes in the distant past. The need to base one’s self-confidence on membership in a particular nation is easily abused for political aims.
