Sweet Dreams
(Saso Podgorsek, Slovenia, 2001, 35mm, 110 min)
Based on a screenplay by popular Slovenian novelist Miha Mazzini, who claimed that he was writing a portrait of a generation with this film, Sweet Dreams (Sladke sanje) is set in Yugoslavia in the early 1970s when the American cultural invasion had just begun. Thirteen-year-old Egon is just a little bit behind everyone else, culturally speaking. His great goal in life is to get a record player, and the local shop has just the one he wants - if he can somehow convince his mother to buy it for him. A rich, revealing chronicle of an era, Saso Podgorsek's second film charts Egon's attempt to find his own way among his family, hippies, schoolmates, teachers, Communists and dissidents.
