Garda is a stark, raw look into a dark chapter of Slovak history, exploring the Hlinka Guard, a militia echoing the fascist ideologies of its time. The documentary has this gritty, almost unsettling atmosphere that feels very close to the ground. It focuses on real stories and testimonies, giving a voice to a past that many might prefer to forget. The pacing is deliberate, allowing for some heavy reflection on the themes of nationalism and identity. It's not polished, which somehow adds to its authenticity. The use of archival footage mixed with modern interviews creates a hauntingly powerful contrast, pulling you into a time that feels both distant yet alarmingly relevant. Quite a distinctive piece, if you’re into that kind of history.
