Synopsis
In a God-fearing village lying between two rivers, giving birth to a fachuk — an illegitimate child — is a mortal sin. Everyone in the village recoils from the young pregnant woman who is about to give birth any day now. In this narrow-minded and harsh rural environment, fear is also growing inside her.

Maida Srabović’s 2025 work, Fačuk, uses the confrontational nature of naïve paintings to deconstruct the daily violence experienced in a small rural village. The work demostrates powerful bravura in references and experimentation.
Croatian: Prvo posebno priznanje dodjeljujemo filmu jedinstvenoga stila utemeljenoga na etnografskoj autentičnosti podneblja i nasljeđu naše naivne umjetnosti. To je nasljeđe u ovome djelu ne samo iskorišteno na razini motiva i slika, već je prije svega inteligentno adaptirano u aktualan društvenokritički rad primjeren suvremenoj publici. Uz navedeno, kreativno korištenje perspektive i snažna osuda retrogradnog svjetonazora čine Fačuk Maide Srabović, nastao u produkciji TETRABOT, pamtljivim i unikatnim filmom.
