A locksmith and an acrobat - Dragoljub Aleksic - made a film in 1942. in occupied city of Belgrade. That was a film about strength of body and will, about social injustice, about tender love and about himself. Dusan Makavejev enriched that film with a new screened scenes and gave us a unique movie time trip. With many authentic pictures of bombarded Belgrade we see a story about Mr. Petrovic and his struggle for Nada's love.

I value Makavejev's extraordinary insights into ordinary affairs and his gentle juggling act with Acrobat Aleksic.
A funny and genuinely endearing tribute to an innocent folk hero -- bizarre in spots, and definitely Makavejev.
A real love for the film medium irradiates the production.
Makavejev's third film, an entrancing collage using excerpts from the first Serbian talkie, a hilariously naïve melodrama made in occupied Belgrade in 1942 with film stock stolen from the Germans.
Early Makavejev which shows a number of his thematic elements taking shape in a witty, probing study of juxtaposition.
A delight with a style all its own.
World cinema knows few greater oddities than Dusan Makavejev's Innocence Unprotected, a strange documentary about the first talkie made in Serbia -- intercut with the entire film itself.
