This decade marks the two hundredth anniversary of opening of the Postojna cave and a hundred years of electrification of the cave. Up until today it was visited by 38 million of people, it is classified as part of 30 largest world wanders! The way it was presented to the world is closely connected to one of the most known European photographers at the turn of the twentieth century – Rudolf Burner Dvořák. His photos of the Postojna cave from 1909 are the first collection of photos of any cave in the world. This until now unseen photographic diamond of 400 photos from 1909 is a treasure without comparison. On one side, there is a voyage through Postojna cave as seen by Dvořák, on the other as we see it today. It is a voyage through a timeless Hades of the underworld. There were states, lines of generations, but the cave remains…
It is a lyrical arabesque pilgrimage with a camera in the times of the endings of the twentieth century in Mitteeurope, which nowadays doesn’t exist anymore, and until the present days, when the idea of the allied Europe seems to be dissolving, fading and disappearing… A film about the time, vanishing and memories.
