Sometimes you wonder what people were thinking in their attempts to plan a Eurovision contender. The boy Baša here appears to have a decent concept regarding our reliance on electronic equipment and personal relationships, but what was the planning meeting like for the staging, you have to wonder.
"Right then, I've gathered you together for the first run through of the staging plans. I'm going to emerge from a festival toilet dressed as a hipster ringleader and I'm going to… what was that? Yes, a Portaloo. Why's that strange? Anyway, I'm going to be reciting an allegorical tale about love, history and technology while you over there sit at a table playing video games in a hoodie, while you over there pretend to play tennis. Obviously. Any questions? No no, don't all speak at once. Trust me, it'll make perfect sense when it's all put together. After a bit more dancing about, we get to the end when a lady in a medieval frock strolls on and we all fall over. So do you all have that? No, wait… where are you all going? Damn, they've gone. Better ring the family…"
Still, it managed to get a single point each from both the jury and the public vote, so it wasn't all bad, eh Saša?
To me the story was pretty clear: The man at the table was playing various video games: a sports/tennis one, some sort of riff on Grand Theft auto (we had a burglar and there were cars on the screen) and a Fantasy rpg. He thought he was controlling the tennis player, the thief and the mage, but in the end he was being controlled as well. The portaloo I can't explain, but you have to leave a little mystery, amirite?
