This film is about great Slovenian band Laibach (German word for Ljubljana, Slovenia). It depicts in pure "laibachian" style history of the group according to conditions of Slovenian history and political situation on the beginning of the 80's. This film can be taken as a visual manifesto of retrograde cultural movement called NSK (Neue Slowenische Kunst - New Slovenian Art) presented here by Laibach. NSK is dealing with totalitarian principles of creating visual or performing art, but in these Slovenian guys living on the edge of germanic and slavic cultures use a lot of humor, which can sometimes look little bit inappropriate, but really works.
