Guča (Documentary)















"The Guča trumpet festival is an annual trumpet festival held in the town of Guča in the Dragačevo region of western Serbia. Guča is a five-hour bus journey from Belgrade.
600,000 visitors make their way to the town of 2,000 people every year, both from Serbia and abroad. Elimination heats earlier in the year mean only a few dozen bands get to compete. Guča’s official festival is split into three parts. Friday’s opening concert, Saturday night celebrations and Sunday’s competition. Friday’s concerts are held at the entrance to the official Guča Festival building. This event features previous winners, each orkestar getting to play three tunes while folk dancers, all kitted out in bright knitting patterns, dance kolos and oros in front of a hyped-up audience"

The film centers around the ambitions of two young trumpet players in their quest to win 'The Golden Trumpet'.
If you enjoyed the opening scenes of the 1992 Cannes film festival winner 'Underground', then you will love this documentary.
