- Synopsis
- The story begins in the late 1980s, at the moment when the young Slovak director Matej Mináč got an approval for making an interview with the exceptional Federico Fellini. The following two decades and three different ideologies of the time (Communist, Nationalist and „Europeanist“) provide endless, and often humorous, obstacles to making a documentary about this great personality of the film world. Minac’s year-long struggle shows that an artist should never give up his artistic goal. The film will contain never-before seen footage of Fellini shot on 35mm in 1989.
