A propos de ce titre

Synopsis

This is the story of B92, the Belgrade radio station - a courageous group of young people who grew up in the Serbian capital under Slobodan Miloseviec's repressive rule. They waged a 10-year campaign for freedom, armed only with a radio transmitter, some rock'n'roll records, and a dream of truth, justice and another kind of life.
They called themselves Serbia's 'lost generation'; Milosevic's government called them traitors, spies and terrorists. But despite police raids and state censorship, they refused to be defeated, and kept on broadcasting their message: 'This is Serbia calling...'
