Hey, I finally watched this one. This is an awarded documentary movie which tells the story about Yugoslav space program, was it myth of reality? Was it real? The movie follows two storylines, first being Yugoslav chief of state Tito, story about did Tito really order development of space program in vast underground air base called ‘Objekt 505’ and did Yugoslavia really sell the program to United States and JFK, later on Johnson and Nixon? The film crew take us to the abandoned base and barracks, eerie and left monuments of another time. Being from Croatia and having grown up in Yugoslavia it was very interesting for me to watch this documentary. I can safely say, Tito was a character larger than life, although for some he was a dictator and cruel ruthless individual, he was a character for sure with Cuban cigars, managing his way between West and East and staying strong and independent force by itself.

Second storyline follows guy in wheelchair called Ivan Pavic(played by Bozidar Smiljanic), former rocket scientist and expert who came from United States to Croatia’s island Pag and Serbia capital Belgrade to meet with his daughter Natasa(played by Branka Selic) who believed all her life that her father was dead and buried in a grave on island Pag. His story, if true is moving and not even best spy movies would make the story like his. Between we have characters talking like former Yugoslav counter intelligence Major General, and also we hear philosopher Slavoj Zizek who tells the best one in the end of the movie, it might not be true, but it is true anyway! Great and interesting movie, I recommend this one to all of you.
