A play within a play, a play instead of reality, a play as a way of life... It's as if some theater festival is going on, all around us. So many different genres, so many old and new roles. And, real theater: who knows how to watch, can see a lot.
Honored
This is actually more than a show. Seselj awarded by the SPC. This is the same church that once canonized an ordinary war criminal from the Second World War, a famous pope Mac Vukojičić, so that the decoration for a convicted war criminal from the nineties represents only the continuity of ideas and actions. At the same time, it should be borne in mind that whom a church declares a saint or distinguishes, undoubtedly also represents the selection/promotion of a value system. Which, thanks to decisions like this, is painfully clear. Someone will say - what interests us in Montenegro? Simple: since the SPC represents the most powerful political organization in Montenegro, all this cannot be unimportant to us.
When the criminal Seselj was released from prison, Djukanovic sent him, if you ask me, a shameful card. I wonder if he also congratulated him with this order?
Folirants
Popular TV soap opera The agreement of the old majority she dropped a bunch of sequels in just a few days. And a lot of characters, but, as if the screenwriter got tired - they all start to resemble each other.
They really talk about the "old" majority as some meaningful category. Today, after two years, it would be interesting to know the proportion of partially or severely disappointed among those who voted to end the three-decade rule of the DPS.
Instead of the citizens seeing a clear difference compared to the paradigm that existed until then, instead of seeing everything that they had not seen in these thirty years, people seemed to be watching - the same movie. Only with worse actors. We got a new version of an old Titoist mantra: And after DPS - DPS!
After two years, the impression is that, in one way or another, they are all DPS. It really is not (only) a party but also a state of consciousness. As we see, at every step.
Doctor
Correspondence of Đukanović and Krivokapića (character comedy elements) brought an interesting moment. Which speaks of the fundamental frivolity and ignorance of our politicians.
As far as I understand, Đukanović somewhere quoted some of the religious and political ups and downs of the former prime minister, and this one matches him. Better not. "If I were to express my personal impressions of Milo Đukanović and his behavior (...), I would most likely have to express myself in the form of medical diagnoses. However, my personal dignity and family upbringing do not allow me to do that," says Z. Krivokapić.
And medical knowledge, someone may ask, what kind of medical knowledge allows you to do that? What medical knowledge and qualifications would allow you to address anyone in the form of medical diagnoses, that's a real question for the self-proclaimed "doctor". Or, maybe local politicians believe that they are superhumans and that by entering the political scene, they gain unimagined knowledge and skills?
Paković
The real show, as befits, happens around the show. Like a postmodern version Brešanov Hamled from Mrduša donje. In fact, ideal for Pakovićev investigative manner.
After such an overture, everyone can't wait to see (and hear) his Pasolini.
Until then, we are left with this comedy of confusion, a sad petty-bourgeois operetta. The young "producers" from Gradski must have thought that the author would bring his themes to Podgorica, but then Paković would not be one of the most intriguing theater researchers of our time. His projects evoke a kind of intellectual catharsis in relation to the hardest, most taboo topics and contexts. City officials say they didn't get what they expected. Problems of contemporary leftist thought? But in the way that DPS is left-wing and anti-fascist - only declaratively.
And that's why I can't understand that that's exactly what they got... Authentic leftist thought at work.
