Joža Čop, an illiterate man of the people, earned great respect from his fellow compatriots. He once famously said: "I’ve never climbed for fame and newspapers, so that people could wipe their asses with me." The film is also a story of the cradle of Slovenia's intellectual and sporting elite, Slovenian vitality, confidence and national pride.
CAST:
MIHA HABJAN (JOŽA ČOP), MARTA KREJAN ČOKL (PAVLA JESIH), MAJ PAVČEK (MILAN GOSTIŠA), KRISTIJAN VRHNJAK (MIHA POTOČNIK), LUKA BIŠČAK (KLEMENT JUG), JAKA FLIS (STANKO TOMINŠEK), MATIJA PERNE (CHIEF DEMŠAR), PETER MIKŠA (NARRATOR), DUŠICA KUNAVER (OSEBNO), ANTON SAZONOV - TONAČ (OSEBNO), KAZIMIR DRAŠLAR (OSEBNO), FRANC EKAR (OSEBNO), MIHA POTOČNIK (OSEBNO), MITJA KOŠIR (OSEBNO), ROK KUŠLAN (NARRATOR), DIANA KOLENC (NARRATOR), TONE KRALJ (OSEBNO)
DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT:
Mount Triglav has a special place in Slovenian national identity. The legend of Goldhorn is one of the oldest tales in Slovenian mythology, and it is no coincidence that we Slovenians have Mt. Triglav in our coat of arms and national flag.
