Eurovision 2008 my top 43

Hello, and welcome to another episode of this ESC top series, and I go back to May 20, 22 and 24, when the 53rd edition of the contest was held in Belgrade, Serbia, after Marija Šerifović’s victory in Helsinki last year. This year was the first to have 2 semifinals, in order to split the voting and to improve the chances of other countries, which IMO was the best decision ever made, also, MORE ESC SHOWS Y’ALL. While Austria withdrew from the contest, San Marino and Azerbaijan said hello and entered for the first time, making a total of 43 countries, the highest number of countries ever. The contest was won by Russia with Dima Bilan and the song Believe, making this their first ever victory and the last to date. And now, let’s review all the songs!

1st Place: UKRAINE/Ani Lorak-Shady lady (Real Placing: 2nd-230 points)

I must say that I’ve never though this would be my winner this year, but now I see it’s one of the best entries that year, her voice is so strong and the performance is so stunning, also she’s so beautiful and I love the music so much, this song inspires me so much and it’s very catchy. This should’ve been an amazing winner that night. 

2nd Place: PORTUGAL/Vânia Fernandes-Senhora do mar (Negras águas) (Real Placing: 13th-69 points)

AN EPIC SONG! Her voice is so perfect, the music is beautiful and the performance is so stunning, I don’t know how this song didn’t finish higher on the night, and finished below songs that are some serious business. I’M IN LOVE WITH THIS SONG.  

3rd Place: GREECE/Kalomira-Secret combination (Real Placing: 3rd-218 points)

Oh I love this song, the music has the Greek elements that I love in a pop song, also her attitude matches the song perfectly and she’s so beautiful, also I’m in love with her dress. The performance is so cool and yeah, a deserved 3rd place. 

4th Place: ISRAEL/Boaz Ma’uda-The fire in your eyes (Real Placing: 9th-124 points)

AWWWWW HIS VOICE IS SO KAJDJKKL, so sweet, he’s so handsome and this entry makes me feel tears in my eyes because it’s so beautiful, the music is very good and it makes me feel calm as well, the fact it’s in Hebrew makes this more stunning. 

5th Place: ARMENIA/Sirusho-Qélé, qélé (Real Placing: 4th-199 points) 

AN EPIC SONG, and one of my fave Armenian entries in the contest, her voice is nice, the music is so cool and I love the performance, she’s so stunning and it’s a very catchy song.  

6th Place: NORWAY/Maria Haukaas Storeng-Hold on, be strong (Real Placing: 5th-182 points) 

WHAT A SINGER SHE IS, the music is so lovely and her voice is so strong, the lyrics are good as well and wow, I’m impressed by this song, I love it so much and the performance is so memorable because of that hand movement. 

7th Place: SERBIA/Jelena Tomašević feat. Bora Dugić-Oro (Real Placing: 6th-160 points) 

Another magical Serbian song, the music is lovely and her voice is out of this world, the staging is so perfect for this song, I’m always speechless for this song, it’s so wonderful.  

8th Place: SWEDEN/Charlotte Perelli-Hero (Real Placing: 18th-47 points)

A former winner returning to the contest with a disastrous result, her voice is so good again as in 1999, the music is so good and I find it a bit nostalgic because it makes me cry, also the lyrics are relatable for me. Even if I would’ve preferred Sanna Nielsen, this song has charm. 

9th Place: SAN MARINO/Miodio-Complice (Real Placing: 19th SF1-5 points/last) 

WHY EUROPE WHY? This song is such a masterpiece, and it finished last in it’s semi? I can’t understand, the music is so nice and pleasant, his voice is soo cool and the performance is cute, also, a nice debut for San Marino. 

10th Place: MALTA/Morena-Vodka (Real Placing: 14th SF2-38 points)

I’m so crazy about this song, at first I found it weird, but now, it’s a guilty pleasure, the music is so awesome and epic, her voice is average but pleasant, also the performance is good. VODKA 

11th Place: ICELAND/Euroband-This is my life (Real Placing: 14th-64 points)

PURE EURODANCE, and I love this, they are amazing, the staging is effective and I’m in love with the music, also extra love for Hera Björk which is a backing singer. One of my favorite 00′s entries. 

12th Place: TURKEY/Mor ve Ötesi-Deli (Real Placing: 7th-138 points) 

Oh... THIS IS AN AWESOME SONG, I love this one so much, and the music is so perfect as well, so hypnotizing, and yeah, he sings so well and yeah, a strong rock song. 

13th Place: FINLAND/Teräsbetoni-Missä miehet ratsastaa (Real Placing: 22nd-35 points)

PURE ROCK FROM FINLAND AGAIN, the music is so perfect and the lead singer’s voice is so cool, I love the performance and wow, I don’t understand how this song finished so low. 

14th Place: BULGARIA/Deep Zone and Balthazar-DJ, take me away (Real Placing: 11th SF2-56 points) 

Wow, the music here is so crazy, has a lot of changes and that’s what I like about this one, her voice could’ve been better, but still, I love the performance so much and yeah, one of my fave Bulgarian entries ever. 

15th Place: ALBANIA/Olta Bolka-Zemrën e lamë peng (Real Placing: 17th-55 points)

Another lovely ballad with a rock touch that makes this so smooth, her voice is so good and the performance is so cute, and the chorus here is so powerful that it’s mesmerizing, what a beautiful song.  

16th Place: CYPRUS/Evdokia Kali-Femme fatale (Real Placing: 15th SF2-36 points) 

WHY? This song has some great Greek sounds to it, I love the music so much and her voice is so good, the performance is so lovely and I like this a lot. I love her attitude on the stage, also her dress is lovely. 

17th Place: POLAND/Isis Gee-For life (Real Placing: 24th-14 points)

Another lovely ballad, her voice is so cute and the performance is magical and precious, the music is so smooth and I’m in love with her dress, what a perfect show. Also the lyrics are so cute. 

18th Place: SPAIN/Rodolfo Chikilicuatre-Baila el Chiki Chiki (Real Placing: 16th-55 points) 

OH THIS ENTRY, IT’S SO GOOD AND BAD AT THE SAME TIME, this song is my childhood, the performance is so hilarious, the lyrics are so crazy and wow, the music is so 08. One of the first ESC entries I heard. 

19th Place: SWITZERLAND/Paolo Meneguzzi-Era stupendo (Real Placing: 13th SF2-47 points) 

An Italian song, and it’s so good, the key change is so brilliant and perfect, his voice could’ve been better actually, but still doesn’t change the fact that it’s a very good song.  

20th Place: ROMANIA/Nico & Vlad-Pe-o margine de lume (Real Placing: 20th-45 points)

A lovely ballad, his voice is so stunning, wish I could say the same about her voice, but still, I like it, the performance is so cute and he’s so handsome, the music is lovely and the lyrics are good as well. 

21st Place: FRANCE/Sébastien Tellier-Divine (Real Placing: 19th-47 points)

Another epic song, France sending joke songs is so weird, and this works so well for me, his voice is curious and I love the performance, the cart and the ball are perfect, as well as the backing singers, such a relaxing song. 

22nd Place: HUNGARY/Csésy-Candlelight (Real Placing: 19th SF2-6 points/last)

Many years ago I though this was boring, but now I appreciate this song so much, her voice is so good and her dress is lovely, an amazing performance as well. Also, she looks like Jamala doesn’t she?  

23rd Place: ANDORRA/Gisela-Casanova (Real Placing: 16th SF1-22 points)

Another song that I love from Andorra, her voice is so good and the music is lovely, my problem here is her dress, she looks like a leaf fairy, overall this song is so catchy and memorable. 

24th Place: SLOVENIA/Rebeka Dremelj-Vrag naj vzame (Real Placing: 11th SF1-36 points) 

This song is so catchy and I enjoy it so much, the singer’s voice is good and the music is good as well, the performance is good, so much green but the dancing is so memorable. 

25th Place: RUSSIA/Dima Bilan-Believe (Real Placing: 1st-272 points)

The winning song, and I have to say, it’s one of my least favorite winners ever, his voice is so annoying here, the performance is perfect, and the music is good, but still, I don’t think this was the right winner that year. 

26th Place: LITHUANIA/Jeronimas Milius-Nomads in the night (Real Placing: 16th SF2-30 points)  

This song is like something out of the Phantom of the Opera, his voice is so good, maybe the performance wasn’t the best, but the music is so perfect and I love it. 

27th Place: CZECH REPUBLIC/Tereza Kerndlová-Have some fun (Real Placing: 18th SF2-9 points) 

This is a very guilty pleasure for me, the music is so cool and her voice isn’t the best but I love this, the performance is so shiny and the lyrics are bad, but reminds me of the music I heard those years, I feel so old. 

28th Place: GEORGIA/Diana Gurtskaya-Peace will come (Real Placing: 11th-83 points)

Oh a heartbreaking and sad song, her voice is so good and the performance is amazing, the music here is very good as well, what a good song, I like it so much. 

29th Place: IRELAND/Dustin the Turkey-Irelande douze pointe (Real Placing: 15th SF1-22 points) 

Another entry that is very weird, and that’s what make me like it, the lyrics are so shady and funny, the performance is too much for me but this works for this song. 

30th Place: BELGIUM/Ishtar-O julissi (Real Placing: 17th SF1-16 points)

The music here is so good, and another imaginary language song, and it’s good because it’s so relaxing, maybe with another performance this would’ve been better.  

31st Place: THE NETHERLANDS/Hind-Your heart belongs to me (Real Placing: 13th SF1-27 points)

Another very good song with a nice singer and the music is so amazing, I think this song deserved so much more than it got, sadly, this was in a quite strong SF. 

32nd Place: UNITED KINGDOM/Andy Abraham-Even if (Real Placing: 25th-14 points/last) 

Aww the music here is so lovely, also he has a very strong voice and the performance was very good, I don’t understand why this came last because this had a lot of feeling on it. 

33rd Place: CROATIA/Kraljevi Ulice and 75 cents-Romanca (Real Placing: 21st-44 points)

I have to say that I love the old man on stage, and the music here is very good and it’s so soothing, also the voice of the lead singer makes me crazy, but there’s something here that impides me to place this entry higher, the last part of the song makes me smile although. 

34th Place: LATVIA/Pirates of the Sea-Wolves of the sea (Real Placing: 12th-83 points)

Another case of a very bad song that it’s so good at the same time, I enjoy it and makes me smile so much, the performance is everything here, I don’t know what to think of this, but I like it somehow. 

35th Place: DENMARK/Simon Mathew-All night long (Real Placing: 15th-60 points)

Aww this is a lovely song, sadly I don’t like it so much because there’s something in the music I can’t stand, he has a lot of charisma and he’s very cute, a simple song overall.   

36th Place: GERMANY/No Angels-Disappear (Real Placing: 23rd-14 points)

At first I loved this song because of the music, because it’s very good, but the voices are the problem here, also the performance was a bit of a letdown for a song like this. This song had a lot of potential, but it was wasted because of the show.  

37th Place: FYR MACEDONIA/Tamara, Vrčak & Adrian-Let me love you (Real Placing: 10th SF2-64 points)

This is a nice song, but maybe there were too many things happening at the same time in the song, the music is so good and they are amazing, but I can’t find a hook for me in this song. 

38th Place: BOSNIA & HERZEGOVINA/Laka-Pokušaj (Real Placing: 10th-110 points) 

Another song that is very weird, his voice is interesting and the performance captures me, but every time I try, I can’t like this song, I find it annoying and a bit exaggerated, still, the performance is memorable. 

39th Place: MOLDOVA/Geta Burlacu-A century of love (Real Placing: 12th SF1-36 points)

This song is like elevator music, relaxing and pleasant, but maybe too relaxing that it bores me a little bit, her song is very good but the performance was so weird, this needed a simple performance to improve it’s chances. 

40th Place: ESTONIA/Kreisiraadio-Leto svet (Real Placing: 18th SF1-8 points)  

WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THIS SONG, this is bad, but it’s too bad that is somehow good, at least this is a funny song because it has no sense, and the performance is really weird. 

41st Place: MONTENEGRO/Stefan Filipović-Zauvijek volim te (Real Placing: 14th SF1-23 points)

This is one of the songs I absolutely forget about from this year, the music is nice but this doesn’t go anywhere, his voice is cool but sadly, this song isn’t remarkable.  

42nd Place: AZERBAIJAN/Elnur & Samir-Day after day (Real Placing: 8th-132 points)

Oh no... this song is so weird for me, the music is good but sadly this has a lot of distracting elements and that makes the song a bit over the place, the performance is epic, and at some point I’m annoyed by their voices, an average debut for Azerbaijan IMO. 

43rd Place: BELARUS/Ruslan Alekhno-Hasta la vista (Real Placing: 17th SF2-27 points)  

This song sounds promising and the intro is wonderful, but this turn in a very annoying, mediocre and boring song, which is sad because this has potential. Also his pronunciation is bad and his voice isn’t pleasant for me.

if this wasn’t naj’s party. . scarlett might not likely be here but she was bored lately and this was the perfect excuse for a little fun. she’d even convinced her hatter to make an appearance in their slue of exchanged messages. now however, she merely sat back watching someone go haywire — rather annoying. femme approached them, delicate hand settling on exposed shoulder to garner attention. once eyes met, scarlett gently gripped her chin beneath her grasp. eyes and tone persuasive in ways she could only hope other wasn’t protected from.  “ relax. ’

Kapital po domače

Objavljeno v Ekranu dec/jan 2019-20

Bryan D. Palmer v eseju “Night in the Capitalist, Cold War City: Noir and the Cultural Politics of Darkness” med najprepoznavnejšimi lastnostmi povojnega filma noir navaja slikanje zastrašujočega individualizma, odtujenega iskanja izmuzljive materialne gratifikacije ter spoznanja, da se tudi navidezno zaščiteni srednji sloj zdaj sooča z možnostjo finančne negotovosti in s pomikanjem navzdol po družbeni lestvici. Kasneje, v 70. letih, ko so indici propada ameriškega sna dosegli vrhunec z afero Watergate, je problematiko politične negotovosti in nezaupanja v vlado nadaljeval neo-noir, hkrati podaljšek in parafraza povojnega noira; predelal je vse od impeachmenta (Vsi predsednikovi možje, 1976, Alan J. Pakula), prisluškovanja (Prisluškovanje, 1974, Francis Ford Coppola) in žvižgačev (Serpico, 1973, Sidney Lumet) do vmešavanja v volitve (The Parallax View, 1974, Alan J. Pakula) in nepooblaščenega delovanja vladnih agencij (Trije kondorjevi dnevi, 1975, Sydney Pollack) ter seveda gospodarskega kriminala (Kitajska četrt, 1974, Roman Polanski). Če ima Slovenija svoj Facebook profil, bi lahko pod zgoraj navedene teme zapisala: “Dobesedno js.”

In tudi trije paradni konji letošnjega Festivala Slovenskega Filma, Jaz sem Frenk Metoda Pevca, Korporacija Mateja Nahtigala in Vsi proti vsem Andreja Košaka, so v današnji Sloveniji zagledali priložnost za kriminalno dramo, a žal ponujajo izredno pomanjkljivo obdelavo družbeno-politične tematike, predvsem boja proti skorumpiranim elitam in njegovih kolateralnih žrtev.

V Pevčevem filmu Frenk (Janez Škof) zatava na set Operacije Cartier, le da je delavce tokrat že dohitela recesija. Lastnik tovarne čevljev umre, in kljub stečaju zapusti sinovoma Frenku in Branetu (Valter Dragan) na švicarskem računu milijone, ki jih je, vse kaže, odtujil med tranzicijo: podrobnosti poslov so nam prihranjene, je pa eden izmed stricev v ozadju tudi Rac Polič, po čemer vemo, da je situacija resna. Film se osredotoči na konflikt med bratoma, socialistično naravnanim Frenkom, ki je ravno prišel iz izraelskega kibuca in z denarjem noče imeti nič, ter podjetnikom Branetom, ki ga izvor denarja seveda ne obremenjuje. V njegovih očeh mu ta denar pripada tako, kot mu pripada Ines (Katarina Čas), depresivna, zadrogirana, apatična in zatrta žena, v kateri ne vidi samo lastnine, temveč, kot pravi slovenski neoliberalec, celo breme: Ines je zanj eden tistih družbenih parazitov, ki jih moramo tako in tako le vzdrževati. 

A Jaz sem Frenk svojega fokusa ne usmeri najbolje; če ima namen raziskati manj črno-bele vidike razrednega boja in posledičnega razkola v družbi, to dobro skriva. Pevec niha med poenostavitvami tipa “tovarne delavcem” in drobci osebne drame, nikjer pa ne postoji dovolj dolgo, da bi tehtno strukturiral svoj prav. Škofov odlični Frenk je sicer mojstrsko zastavljen med ležerno brezbrižnostjo in ideološko dolžnostjo, vendar pa nima protiuteži: Brane in Ines sta preveč enodimenzionalna, da bi lahko skupaj s Frenkom bolje poudarjala recimo motiviko propadlih sanj (skupaj so imeli bend), ljubezenskega trikotnika (Ines je Frenkova mladostniška ljubezen) ali pa dialektike socializem-kapitalizem. Tako je film večino časa medlo vpet med različne socialno obarvane narative, ki jih nikoli dodobra ne izkoristi. Ni dovolj artikuliran, da bi vodil k razmisleku, poetičnost pa se mu tudi vseskozi izmika, saj se premalokrat oprime slike, tišine in prodorne glasbene teme – neofolkovske žalostinke – ki jo oklevajoče uvede povsem prepozno. In ko v zadnji tretjini dokončno pokaže, da nima izdelanega cilja, se zdi v tem podoben svojemu junaku – ve samo, česa si ne želi, ni pa zares radikalen, bodisi v svoji naivnosti ali v ambiciji. Tako kot Frenk tudi film v resnici ničesar ne postavi na kocko in morda se konča po Eliotovsko, not with bang, but a whimper, a bolj zaradi kohezijskega sesutja kot pa namere. 

Medtem ko je Frenk poenostavljena, fiktivna variacija na režiserjev ganljivi dokumentarec Dom (2015), je Nahtigalova Korporacija le infantilna skrunitev Kitajske četrti, kjer  neizdelani liki z imeni, ki v našem okolju izpadejo kot psevdonimi avstrijskih porno igralcev (Heinz, Gloria Link, Ronald Rihter, Leon Gall), tavajo sin-cityjevskem post-mestu. Če je Frenk zašel v Operacijo Cartier, potem inšpektor Leon Gall v Korporaciji zaide v Möderndorferjev Inferno – naslovna Korporacija namreč želi porušiti barakarsko naselje in zgraditi tam prihodnost, tako kot jo želita zgraditi Šugmanov direktor v Infernu – namesto tovarne – in Noah Cross v Kitajski četrti namesto pomarančnih nasadov.

V pravem neo-noiru so liki, skupaj z občinstvom, pogosto v temi; tako zasebnega detektiva Jaka Gittesa (Jack Nicholson) v Kitajski četrti opozorijo, da se mu niti sanja ne, v kaj se je zapletel. A če v filmu noir tradicionalno nič ni, kot se zdi, je v Korporaciji – razen preobratov, ki jih ad hoc stlačijo v zadnjih 5 minut – vse točno tako, kot se zdi. Ravno lucidni, pronicljivi Gittes je tako navajen pravilno predvidevati, da se mu resnica začne izmikati, ko naleti na povsem nepredvideno situacijo, ki ga privede nazaj v nočno moro iz njegove preteklosti, medtem ko je Leon po drugi strani upravičeno suveren glede lastnega raziskovanja, saj ga pripelje naravnost do (skorajšnje) rešitve. Za razliko od Gittesa se ne moti kaj dosti, nič ga ne preči, in to je eden glavnih razlogov, zakaj v njem ni sledu človeškega izkustva. Ne le on – skoraj vsi liki v Korporaciji pravzaprav obstajajo samo zato, da izrekajo noirovske replike.

Kitajsk četrt zelo pogosto citirana kot eden scenaristično najbolj dodelanih filmov, ves čas izmika resnico pred nosom tako Jaku kot gledalcu ter počasi razkriva perfidnost in razsežnost kapitalističnega kriminala. Označena je bila tudi za metaforo brezplodnosti človeškega ukrepanja; majhni delčki informacij in replik vseskozi pletejo nit neizogibnosti, ki se prikaže šele, ko je prepozno. Korporacija se po drugi strani komaj odloči, kdo je odgovoren za umor, kaj šele da bi mu dala alegorično vlogo. S svojim koncem resda namiguje, da je razsežnost gospodarsko-političnega kriminala večja, kot lahko slehernik dojame, ter da bo vsak upor zatrt, vendar njena vsiljena referenčna drža – tu so hitri zoomi, eastwoodovske enovrstičnice in liki, omejeni na vsebinskost hashtaga – preprečuje občutenje srha neizbežne “prihodnosti”, kakršno poleg Kitajske četrti slikajo na primer tudi filmi Prisluškovanje in Trije kondorjevi dnevi. Korporacija tudi ni nekakšen metafikcijski komentar žanra, v katerem bi gledalec prepoznaval parodijo žanrskih konvencij in bil preko nje hkrati popeljan v resnico znotraj t. i. realnosti fiktivnega sveta, kar uspe recimo Altmanovemu The Long Goodbye (1973): tu gre bolj za razdišan potpuri, ki mimogrede odkljuka brez interne logike vse, kar se je ustvarjalcem zdelo neo-noirovsko markantno ali provokativno: od rojenih psihopatov s tetovažami tipa Rdeči zmaj (“Že kot otrok je bil čuden”) do nakazanega incesta (ki za razliko od Kitajske četrti seveda ne nosi nobene teže ali komentarja), karikiranih antagonistov ter femme fatale, ki verjetno v zgodovini filma še ni bila tako močno zreducirana na statista z vlogo.

Nerazumevanje lastnega okolja pa v Korporaciji doseže vrhunec z anonimnostjo mesta, ki je kljub poplavi atipičnih nočnih kadrov Ljubljane in Zagreba še bolj zreducirano kot liki. V ponovnem poskusu, da bi v svojem filmu ustvaril “brezimno urbano džunglo” – o tem kritično piše že Polona Petek v Ekranu dec/jan 2016 – je le reiteriral prastaro floskulo o tem, da Slovenci nimamo svoje identitete. Kriminal v Ljubljani? Nihče ne bo verjel – raje nastavimo par prostitutk v izložbo za Miheličevo bencinsko črpalko na Tivolski, da bo bolj amsterdamsko. Kraj dogajanja v fikciji resda ne potrebuje poimenovanja ali očitne prepoznavnosti, vendar izogibanje dejanskosti deluje kot izogibanje odgovornosti do poznavanja lastnega okolja.

Ustvarjalci Korporacije so zagotovo gledali Kitajsko četrt, vendar je niso videli oziroma se iz nje niso ničesar naučili o ujetosti posameznika in ponavljanju zgodovine, še manj pa o rušilni požrešnosti variacij sodobnega kapitalizma, ali vsaj o scenaristiki. Korporacija je v teh elementih tako negotova, da se poraja vprašanje, kaj jim je bilo pri mojstrovini Polanskega sploh všeč, če je niso razumeli. Nahtigalov film ne deluje ne ideološko ne arhetipsko, temveč je le medij za ideje, ki jih ne zna nadzorovati in sinergirati. Ne potrka na neprijetno znotraj nas, prav tako pa nas – vsaj namerno – ne zabava.

Podobno enoznačno dojema zeitgeist Košakov Vsi proti vsem, le da mu za vzor ne služi neo-noir. Pravzaprav ni jasno, kaj si jemlje za vzor, saj še najbolj spominja na krimi verzijo TV Dober dan, v kateri se predvsem veliko vozijo in pijejo viski iz dekanterjev – v Sloveniji žal posnamemo več reklam kot filmov. Obstaja le v svojem vakuumu, neobremenjenem s strani kakršnekoli filmske zapuščine, kjer glasba vsakič dramatično podpre zaplet in kjer policaji še vedno govorijo stvari kot na primer “Na očeh vaju mam, tička. Se bomo že še videli.”

Franta (Vlado Novak), bivši udbaš in župan fiktivnega kraja po imenu Rovte (vsa podobnost z nefiktivnim krajem Rovte je, sklepamo, naključna), najame lokalnega kriminalca Fleischmanna (Valter Dragan), da očrni njegovega mladega protikandidata, priljubljenega levičarja z veliko možnostjo za zmago. A Fleischmann protikandidatu naprti pedofilsko afero, ki ima veliko težje posledice, kot je župan predvidel. Franta, ki naj bi bil filmski odgovor na Kantorja iz Cankarjevega Kralja na Betajnovi, seveda nima Kantorjeve brezvestne hladnokrvnosti in vizije – gospodarskega kriminala in politike je bil vajen še iz časov, ko ju ni narekoval le volatilni prosti trg. In ko Fleischmann, ki tudi sam še ni dojel, kako hitro se spreminja kapitalistična pokrajina, ob pogledu na zemljišča (spet!), ki jih bo lahko poceni odkupil kot protiuslugo za svoje storitve, zamrmra, “Nikoli jim ne bo jasna cela slika”, deluje, kot da bi govoril o avtorjih filma.

Vsi proti vsem ima podobno težavo kot Korporacija; z vidika kritike tako imenovanega avtokratskega neoliberalnega kapitalizma ne prikazuje ustroja družbe, ki omogoča sistematično ropanje in nasilje ter hkrati ustvarja začarani krog potrošniške – in posledično državljanske – inertnosti. Obenem pa mu povečini telenovelska igra (z izjemo Silve Čušin kot županove žene), generični dialogi in odsotnost kakršnekoli estetike preprečujejo, da bi v formalističnem okviru svojega žanra ujel značilnosti okolja, kjer dnevno prevprašujemo demokracijo in svobodo, kjer v vladi vidimo le še ponudnika storitev in kjer preko družbenih omrežij omogočamo nadzor, o kakršnem so obveščevalne službe le sanjale. Že naslov filma bi lahko nudil boljše izhodišče: več ljudi kot z nasiljem si bo v prihodnosti neoliberalni kapitalizem – vsaj v državah zahodnega sveta – lahko podredil prav z ideologijo, ki zagotavlja, da je “vsi proti vsem” naravno stanje ter da je le posameznik sam odgovoren za svoje mesto v družbi in za svoj uspeh. To je sporočilo oglasov (“Tvoje življenje – tvoja izbira”, “Ko vsak dan dobim, kar si zaželim, sem zmagovalec”) in to je sporočilo, ki ga posvojenega naprej vsiljujemo po družbenih medijih. Kot v intervjuju pove filozof Zdravko Kobe: “Danes pa neuspeh, ki je glede na razširjenost pač sistemski rezultat, razumemo predvsem kot osebni poraz, kot izraz lastnih psiholoških slabosti in napačnih odločitev.” Vsi proti vsem tako ni nič več kot tavanje po medprostoru popularne kulture in novinarskega senzacionalizma, s svojim nerazumevanjem tako mehanizmov zgodbe in filma kot tudi problematike sodobnih politično-gospodarskih ureditev pa prispeva le k še večjemu odporu do slovenskega filma, za mnoge pa mogoče tudi do te tematike.

Pred leti mi je na vlaku sopotnik, ki je bil iz istega kraja kot eden izmed takrat obsojenih gospodarstvenikov, povedal, kaj ga je pri teh aferah najbolj fasciniralo: za omenjenega tajkuna se mu je zdelo, kot da nima pojma, kaj bi storil z vsem nakradenim denarjem. “Še vedno je hodil na morje z družino kampirat, v prikolico zraven naše.” In naši tajkuni so vedno res izgledali, kot da ne vedo, kaj početi s tem denarjem; v tem smislu so Frenk, Korporacija in Vsi proti vsem vsaj zvesti slovenski izkušnji. Za razliko od Noaha Crossa v Kitajski četrti prave prihodnosti ne bi zares videli, tudi če bi jim jo dostavil Amazon, saj prihodnost zanje izgleda kot BTC. Ti trije filmi prav tako ne vedo, kaj početi s svojim denarjem, razen tega, da lahko z njim nahranijo nekaj filmskih ekip. Če bi ga zažgali, kar naj bi v 90. letih performativno storil elektronski dvojec KLF (milijon funtov na otoku Jura), bi bil to bolj realističen in bolj udaren komentar prostega trga. Seveda pa bi bilo bolje, če bi ta denar namenili komu drugemu. Kot so na Festivalu slovenskega filma namreč vseskozi glasno opozarjali, ima slovenski film že tako kronične težave s financiranjem; a še večje težave se kažejo na tistih področjih filma, ki sploh ne zahtevajo tolikšnih sredstev.

1-5

im gonna do these for my two main ocs, valda and najiah!

1: valdas nickname used most often is just val, cause it just kinda makes sense *shrug*, im not sure for najiah but im not sure for her besides naj, which tells me i need to come up with more

2: vals eyes are a very dark purple, her hair is dark blue but she likes to dye it all sorts of colours, but she does pink most commonly, and her skin is light blue! (shes basically a teifling!) najs eyes are dark brown, her hair is dark brown (and very curly, she likes to dye it often as well), and her skin is medium brown! (shes a human!)

3: vals height is around 5′11″, and najs is 5′8″, but this may be subject to change!

4: id say one of vals most noticeable features is her horns, similar to rams horns! and for naj, i think it would be her hair! its really long and poofy :3

5: id say val would just wear anything thats comfortable since shes autistic and shes sensitive to clothes, but she definitely wears stuff thats more butch-y, and naj wears kinda more femme and floaty, think like summer dresses and poofy skirts! thanks for sending the ask!
