In April 2009, students from the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences in Zagreb launched a major protest against the commercialization of education, involving more than twenty faculties. Filmed from within the movement, the documentary traces its rise and gradual weakening. As the students attempt to make themselves heard by a government that refuses to respond, the blockade takes on a significance that transcends the mere occupation of space, becoming a challenge to the political and social order.

Following the screening, a masterclass with Igor Bezinović exploring his cinema between history and the present, documentary and fiction, collective memory and personal perspective. The award-winning Croatian director, one of the most innovative voices in contemporary documentary cinema, discusses his working method, the formal freedom of his films, independent production, and the relationship between politics and aesthetics.
