Storyline

Concrete Love, the debut documentary feature of theatre and film actor and director Boris Bakal is the result of his 10-year struggle to save a modernist skyscraper built by Ivan Vitić in the center of Zagreb.

When Boris Bakal fell in love with the building in 2002, he moved in planning to put up art projects but he soon realised that the building was falling to pieces (including his famous sliding wooden blinds). Since then he has tried to emulate neighbours, media and authorities documenting the major steps on video. Finally in autumn 2011 the Zagreb City Council approved a restoration grant.
