Fifty years of communism doesn’t go by unnoticed. Eastern Europe escaped the clutches of communism and the Soviets to the embrace of a Europe who leaped across the ocean with one leg, and kicked in the same direction with the other. The ideology that developed in Western Europe is an attempt to embrace the American world and enjoy it, and at the same time keep one self’s as a creature of higher social values. All these didn’t happen in the east. Five decaded of communism left the nations in ruin on the financial side, but brought to the people there a taste of what it feels not to on the top of the food chain, what does it feel to colonized by foreigners. A cruel lesson, but one can only wonder on the irony, and ask what such a lesson would have done to the western side of the continent. However, fifty years of communism doesn’t go unnoticed, hundreds of years of colonization in India did live their mark, and such is also the case eastern Europe. Corruption and occupation by a foreign power leave their marks on the society, and the values which they bring permeate into the society. From this comes this wonderful and hilarious animated movie, the comparison to South Park is, although common, totally misplaced. South Park never managed, nor tried, to mirror such a mayhem, such a chaotic micro-cosmos, which is so refreshing at the same time. Don’t misunderstand, this is not a serious movie, but it does point the direction. Any connection between the movie and this piece is totally incidental.
