“Long live the factory!” is a documentary film about a factory, once a chemical industry giant of Yugoslavia, and its former workers. Aleksandar Kostić found tens of thousands of slides and negatives taken by factory photographers in various periods of its existence. Whenever he would hear the storiesabout the factory, Aleksandar wondered – why is there so much talk about it? Are those stories even true, or is it just nostalgia for the “good old days”? He spent years searching for the answers, hoping to get at least close to finding them.
