-Where The Yellow Lemon Blooms
At the end of year 1916, in the second year of the World War I, which started by Austro-Hungarian empire attack on small monarchy Serbia, Serbian people, army and government were at the door of the greatest temptation in its history. United armies of Austro-Hungarian empire, German and Bulgaria attacked Serbia.Defending each road, each hill, small river, when every village, plain, curve became historical points, Serbia, expecting the help of the allies, found itself with the whole army, institutions and refugees in Kosovo, the only remaining free part of its territory. There, in Kosovo, further fight became impossible, so the Serbian Government and Supreme command, avoiding capitulation, chose fateful, but at the same time honorable act: Serbian army, government, people left the Country and, in diverse directions, in the middle of severe winter, withdrew over impassable Albanian gorges and, over a part of south Montenegro, without roads, to the Adriatic Sea, heading towards the allies. Both Serbian people and army were exhausted, almost powerless, hungry and poorly dressed. It was a unique achievement in the history, the whole country became emigration. It was unprecedented protecting of the national honor, marvelous achievement with terrible victims. The most terrible in the World War. Suffering of Serbian people in marches for survival and liberation acquired admiration of free world for Serbs and Serbia.
The Serbs came to allies to Corfu, expressing its suffering in the poem “There, Far Away”. This sacrificial achievement of ninety years ago is theme of movie “Where the Yellow Lemon Blooms”.
