The Weight of Chains 2 is a 2014 Canadian-Serbian[1] documentary film about the political and economic situation in the countries of the former Yugoslavia.[2] Directed and produced by Boris Malagurski, the film was released on November 20, 2014, at the Serbian Film Festival at Montecasino in Johannesburg, South Africa.[3]
As the sequel of The Weight of Chains,[4] the film deals with neoliberal economic reforms in the Balkans[2][5] and discusses the effects of these reforms on all aspects of life in the former Yugoslavia, from politics, economics, military, culture and education to the media. "Through stories of stolen and sold off companies, corrupt politicians, fictional tribunals, destructive foreign investors and various economic-military alliances, the film deconstructs modern myths about everything we've been told will bring us a better life", Malagurski told Tanjug.[6]
The film aired on Radio Television of Serbia in July 2016.[7]
