Black Film (film)

[3] The documentary explores difficulties experienced by the homeless populace in Yugoslavia.

It starts in Novi Sad on January 29, 1971, when Žilnik finds 6 homeless men, whom he invites to his 48-square-meter apartment for a few days, where he lives with his wife and infant daughter.

Despite the state's socialist status, the homeless often received no welfare or social assistance.

Žilnik criticises the willful ignorance of the state and its populace to the problems of homelessness and unemployment.
