Trieste Is Ours! is a fascinating blend of comedy and drama, capturing the absurdities of military reenactment culture. Directed by Žiga Virc, it follows this group led by the determined France, played by Gojmir Lešnjak - Gojc. The film's tone flits between light-hearted humor and poignant family dynamics, especially with France's wife Marija and daughter Mateja voicing their concerns. The pacing has this odd rhythm, sometimes slow, sometimes a chaotic flurry of action as they stage their battles. The atmosphere is charged with irony, showcasing how these enthusiasts create a world of their own, often overshadowed by the real-life consequences of their play. Performances are genuine, offering a glimpse into each character's motivations and struggles. It’s distinctive for how it balances the surreal with the relatable, almost a love letter to those who take their hobbies perhaps a bit too seriously.
