Synopsis
Between 2013 and 2023, Slovenian Cinematheque preserved and digitized 179 short films created on a tiny stretch of land between the Alps and the Adriatic Sea in the period of socialism (1945-1991), but mostly outside the prevailing state production. Today, we belatedly recognize these films as experimental and as an important, innovative part of the Slovenian film heritage, visible again for the first time after decades. The production of Alpe-Adria Underground! has radically accelerated efforts to preserve, digitize and restore this segment of Slovenian cinema.

Director's statement
Our documentary hopefully shows that amateur passion has generated a remarkable corpus of entirely original images and home-grown auteur approaches, which we can now safely call the history of Slovenian experimental cinema.

The film has succeeded in plucking from oblivion a precious piece of Slovenian film history from the second half of the 20th century. It will help the audience understand the relationship between mainstream Slovenian cinema and the various avant-garde movements, and to appraise them within the cultural space of the former Yugoslavia.
