The Parade

"The Parade" delves into the complexities of modern Serbian society through the lens of its annual gay pride parade. In this tragicomic depiction of life, we witness an ongoing struggle between two vastly different worlds - the oppressive and traditional majority, ridden with homophobia, and a smaller, open-minded minority who seek acceptance and equality. The film uniquely incorporates footage from the 2010 Belgrade gay pride parade as it follows a group of determined activists striving to organize this event in their city. Their journey is filled with challenges, humor, and poignant moments that bring attention to the fight for gay rights in Serbia. The narrative provides an insightful portrayal of societal division and offers a platform for discussion around tolerance, freedom, and human rights.
