Varuh Meje (2002) ****

"Varuh Meje" is a Slovenian film directed by Maja Weiss. It tells the story of three young girls on a canoe trip down the river Kolpa, which separates Slovenia from Croatia. It soon becomes a journey of discovery for the girls, while the film turns into a dark allegory about fascism and tolerance. Needless to say, the girls get rid of their bras early on, and the images of them paddling their canoes while completely topless are quite refreshing and arousing. Their breasts, liberated from the constraints of their clothes, are a metaphor, we can guess, of Slovenia liberated from its totalitarian past (or something like that). Anyway, this is probably the best lesbian film ever to come from Eastern Europe.
