ŠVICARIJA.

In 1835, the Ljubljana Casino Society decided to provide some entertainment for their members at the Belvedere viewpoint. Immediately after the Tivoli Hotel was built, bohemians settled there. A good century after Tivoli Hotel opened in Ljubljana, the building underwent a thorough restoration to become the Švicarija Creative Centre. Known for decades as “the cradle of Slovenian sculpture”, it had been home to artists as well as oddities and Russian migrants. The documentary combines personal accounts from former residents with archive material and the life this extraordinary building has today.
