5.1One in five families in Croatia lose their apartment or house due to being unable to pay back credit or keep up with overhead expenses. The rigorous Seizure Law provides banks and other institutions with an easier way of gaining real estate. When the system fails, when a citizen has nowhere to apply for assistance and when the unscrupulous administration dislodges them from their flats or houses, then young activists arrive to help and with their bodies prevent the execution of the eviction. HOME has recorded grievous scenes from the very places where the cordons of special police use force to drag away children, women, the young and the old - whose one and only wish is to stay and live in their only home.

The March came, with him came the birds, the sun, the first petals of flowers, the buds on the trees... but also, the people were gone from the streets, from the squares.

There was silence and silence that sometimes breaks the birdsong, the barking of dogs, the buzzing of flies and the sound of ambulances!
