Once Upon a Time in Soča Valley

“Nekoč so rekli, da je gozd govoril. Nekoč je govorilo vse, vse je govorilo.”

The film tells the story of the Old Faith in the Soča Region. While the time of the religion’s origin remains unknown, the only documented fact about this is that in 1331, the bringers of a new religion (Christianity) came from Čedad, initiating a violent Christianisation of the Soča region. This was a long and extremely violent process.
