Američko-hrvatski u boji – dio prvi – Marija i zvijer
The saga of Dejan Šork's film "American-Croatian in Color" in its second part, "Venice of Death," follows the life of director Desdemona Marin, the fourth generation of a Croatian immigrant family connected by fate to film.
Desdemona Marin, based on the script by her grandmother and Hollywood screenwriter Lucija Marin, with a film crew made up of freaks - a director of photography who honed his craft in the Vietnam War, a lighting engineer who is an electric chair repairman and a butcher for special effects - shoots her first real film, a low-budget horror, in the swamps of Louisiana, after successfully directing a pornographic film. But in addition to all the possible problems and dramas that accompany a film set set in the ruins of Venice in the swamps of Louisiana, a powerful film producer and unclean forces, including love, also interfere in the filming. Dejan Šorak portrays the anciently complicated family relationships of the Marins and the complex power play of the film set participants so well and convincingly that everything complex becomes simple - without simplifying anything. The story of the filming of a horror film, tentatively titled "Death in Venice", becomes a drama and a study of filmmaking. The emancipated and passionate women from the Marin family are a new type in our literature.
