The production company Paradox Film points out that it had particularly good ratings in the Nordic countries, reaching ninth place in the Netherlands, sixth in Sweden, and eighth in Croatia on the list of the 10 most watched films.
“This is important news for Serbian cinematography and Serbian historiography,” a press release of the production company Paradox Film said.
The documentary features a number of prominent historians (John Rohl, Hew Strachan, Dominc Lieven, Annika Mombauer, Oleg Airapetov, Georges-Henri Soutou, Lothar Hobelt, Stig Forster, Jean-Paul Bled, Alan Asked, Dusan Batakovic) talking about the events leading up to World War 1.
The documentary was first aired on Netflix on June 28, the anniversary of the assassination of Austro-Hungarian Archduke Franz Ferdinand by Bosnian Serb nationalist Gavrilo Princip.
It has been showing in 30 European countries where Netflix has an audience of some 70 million subscribers and will be available for viewing for the next five years.
It was made with support from the Serbian Culture Ministry and the Film Center of Serbia in 2018. The Long Road to War won awards at a number of international festivals on all continents.
There are some historical things in Parks that one comes across, but forgotten by the inhabitants of that country. Upon walking through Topcidar Park in Belgrade there was this monument, nothing too impressive until you read what’s written on it.
The inscription reads "Here Lie Serbian Heroes" in German and Serbian.
In October 1915, a new army group led by Field Marshal August Mackensen which included the German 11 Army, Austro-Hungarian Third Army and Bulgarian First Army launched a renewed campaign against Serbia.
Mackensen had great respect for the Serbian army and Serbians generally because he said:
“You are not going to the Italian, Russian, or French front. You are going into battle against a new enemy - dangerous, tough, fearless, and sharp. You are going to the Serbian front and Serbia.
“Serbs are people who love their freedom, and who will fight to the last man. Be careful this small enemy does not cast a shadow on your glory and compromise your successes.”
After Mackensen entered Belgrade, he erected that monument to the Serbian defenders of the City.
Perhaps the Croats or Albos might want to point out if they have a similar monument? Lenny here is your chance to shine.
