This a documentary about the TAT pyramid scheme, a major banking scandal that rocked the city of Bitola and blighted the lives of many savers from Macedonia and abroad. In their efforts to recover the money they lost in the pyramid scheme, savers suffered many personal and family dramas—in some cases even suicide and murder as a result of unsettled credit-debt accounts. Tragically, the consequences are still being addressed and might never be overcome. The documentary revives this issue at a time when many living witnesses are speaking openly about what happened in TAT and about who the main perpetrators were. Some of the surviving victims give their own statements, which is a rarity in documentaries. One of the goals of the film is for the truth about TAT to come to light.

This ethnographic and historical silent 16mm cinematic jewel was filmed in 1940 by Sifrid Miladinov – a professional photographer and amateur filmmaker from Kumanovo, a man with eclectic range of interests. In 16 short but precious minutes you will see what the village of Galichnik, the famous Galichnik wedding and our ancestors looked like 80 years ago – in color! – very unusual at that time. Maybe some of you will recognize your great-grandfather, great-great-grandmother, old family house, alley, tree, entrance door. Sifrid Miladinov’s film is a rare opportunity to look back in the past through authentic, original archive footage. We thank the descendants of this film enthusiast, the Miladinovi family from Zagreb, for depositing the film in our national film archive – the Cinematheque – several years ago.

The film is a combination of animation and live-action sequences. In both parts, the connecting thread is the knock on the door. It is a story about a man who finds himself in various situations during his life, even being shot, and after each of those situations, he hears a knock on the door and when he opens it, there is a man in front of it who hits him on the head. That is the animated part, which has 32 frames. The live-action part is made up of 18 frames, divided into two sequences. In the first sequence, the animator makes the cartoon he has already seen, hears a knock on the door and when he opens it, he is also hit on the head by a man. In the second sequence, a woman makes a collection of photographs showing the animator in various situations, and suddenly hears a knock on the door. The dilemma arises whether to open the door?
