Podunavske Švabe

Directing: Marko Cvejić

Synopsis

This film tells the story of "Danube Swabians“, the descendants of the youngest German tribes who immigrated to the territory of Vojvodina in the eighteenth century, searching for better life. The story follows their destiny from the very beginnings of settling in this region, through their position during the World War II, to the present time. Maria is a descendant of Danube Swabians. She comes to Vojvodina to find the old house of her grandfather who was exiled after the World War II. On the way she meets a local guy Misho, who helps her. Together they travel across Vojvodina, meeting witnesses of the traumatic post-war events, who managed to survive communist concentration camps. That’s how they discover entirely new facts about Danube Swabians that have been hidden from the public for decades.
