YEREVAN.- Serbian director Goran Radovanovic said he wants to shoot
a film about Armenia.
The director is in Yerevan to present his With Fedel Whatever Happens
documentary at the 9th Golden Apricot International Film Festival.
Talking to reporters on Friday he first of all noted presence of
Mormons in Armenia.
"I didn't know you have Mormons. Why do Armenians, having centuries-old
Christian tradition, need Mormons. I would like to make a film about
it," he emphasized.
Radovanovic said his film is depicting the life of common Cubans in an
ironical manner and is not aimed at solving political problems. The
director stressed that his own communist past helped him ponder over
the Cuban society.
In his documentary Serbian director tried to show what he calls
"communism under palm trees" touching upon three main problems -
limitation of movement, fear for system and huge difference between
the declared values and reality.
"Anyway my film is not about politics, it is about life. I am not
criticizing, I am only mocking," he said.
Goran Radovanovic is a member of the European Film Academy.
