O filmu

Naturalistična zgodba o življenju Toneta Mlakarja, 96-letnika, znanega slovenskega arhitekta, fotografa in scenografa. V formi modernega pričevanja o zanimivostih njegove življenjske poti, v katerem je glavni karakter aktivni udeleženec, nas drama prek osebnih stališč in iz vidika protagonista pelje skozi dvajseto stoletje na ozemlju Slovenije. Človek neštetih vzponov in padcev, ki je bil nekajkrat nevarno blizu, da izgubi življenje, v filmu razkriva skrivnosti svojega talenta in nas z veščino pravega pripovedovalca vodi v zgodbe svojega življenja. Tone Mlakar je popotnik in narator, stilizirani del stilizirane zgodovine, ki s svojo pojavo v zgodbo vpelje malo mistično nit kinestezije.

Synopsis

A naturalistic story about the charmed life of Tone Mlakar, a 96-year old acclaimed Slovenian architect, photographer and set designer. The film’s drama, recorded in the form of a contemporary testament in which the main character takes an active role, takes us directly through the 20th century as it was experienced in the territory of modern Slovenia from the standpoint of our protagonist. Mlakar’s story is a story of a man, who has lived through his share of ups and downs and came dangerously close to losing his life on several occasions. He provides a glimpse into the mysteries of his talents and takes us on a journey through the stories of his life with the skill of a seasoned storyteller. Tone Mlakar is an adventurer and narrator, a stylized part of a stylized history, weaving a fine mystical thread of kinesthesia into the story with his impressive persona.
