Wikipedia article
'How Rock'n'Roll was Ruined' is a 1989 Serbian omnibus comedy film. It comprises three story segments, written and directed by three different screenwriters and directors. The score was also a joint effort, with lead musicians from rock bands Idoli, Elektrini Orgazam, and Disciplina Kime each composing the music for one segment. The three independent stories are situated within the context of popular and youth culture in Yugoslavia at the time just before the country broke up, and abound with satirical, farcical, and absurdist humour. The film was awarded a Golden Arena for Best Film Editing at the Pula Film Festival in 1989. It attained cult status in the following years.[http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/kako-je-propao-rokenrol-the-fall-of-rock-and-roll/ Kako je propao rokenrol (How Rock'n'Roll was Ruined) - Rotten Tomatoes][http://www.gerila.com/video/vhs/4132.htm Kako je propao rokenrol (How Rock'n'Roll was Ruined)][http://www.discogs.com/Vlada-Gile-Koja-Kako-Je-Propao-Rokenrol/release/3266487 Vlada*, Gile*, Koja* - Kako je propao rokenrol (Cassette, Album) at Discogs]
