In the film Fat Tuesday, made using Lomokino technology, three carnival festivities in Serbia are shown: Starci in Vukovac, Fašanke in Grebenac and Bele poklade in Lozovik. The structure of the film is a dynamic and pulsating shift of the order of the rituals and an emerging chaos of individual actions. Questions about the relationship towards culture, tradition, and nature are raised.
