    FILM DESCRIPTION:
    In the year 2000, in a war barely noticed outside Yugoslavia, the indicted war criminal Slobodan Milosevic fought to hold power. He controlled a battle-hardened army, a tough police force, and most of the news media. But he underestimated his opponents, led by a student movement called Otpor! (‘resistance’), who attacked the regime with ridicule, rock music, and a willingness to be arrested. Their courage and audacity inspired others to overcome their fear and join the fight.
    Otpor! students were the shock troops in what became an army of human rights and pro-democracy activists who systematically undermined police and army loyalty to Milosevic and forced him to call early elections. When Milosevic refused to accept his defeat at the polls, the people responded with a general strike. As normal life ground to a halt, Serbs by the hundreds of thousands descended on the capital on October 5 to seize the parliament in a dramatic triumph for democracy. Milosevic was arrested and extradited to the Hague to stand trial for crimes against humanity in June 2001.

    Milošević should have been brought down back in 1991 and incarcerated for treachery, incitement of war, targeting everyone who opposed him and his overall incompetence alongside his narcissistic wife who had an enormous influence on his pathetic leadership. 2000 was way too late and the stain of his regime is still visible even to this day. Some of his gangsters are still here like Aleksandar Vulin, the current director of BIA

      That was never any of reasons for us who were fighting in this protests against Milosevic. Real fist was Serbian nationalists angry on them because they failed with Serbian interest. Nothing else.
      Scum that usurped power in that chaos can lie youngsters. We were tricked and they are spining the basic reasons.

    Very much a one sided story and if milosevic wasnt there,thered be another who after all wanted to defend serbia. These idealists are students etc who have surreal views on the world and its ways. Its nearly always anti serb and strangely milosevic at the hague was found innocent so is this documentary invalid?
