Brief Synopsis:
A homophobic, middle-aged, Serbian gangster ends up sacrificing himself to protect Gay freedom in his country. THE PARADE, in a tragicomic way, tells the story about ongoing battle between two worlds in contemporary post-war Serbian society – the traditional, oppressive, homophobic majority and a liberal, modern and open-minded minority.
