ABOUT THE FILM
ABOUT THE FILM

The third installment of Serbian Canadian film director Boris Malagurski’s controversial feature documentary trilogy, “The Weight of Chains 3” is a Canadian film that explains how the military-industrial complex, big business and political interest groups endanger peoples’ health and very existence, zeroing in on the example of Serbia and other countries around the world such as Cuba, Chile, Italy and Bolivia. Through the analysis of crimes against the environment, genetic modification of food and the urgent issue of climate change, the film exposes the system we live in and presents inspirational stories that will make you rise up and take action.

The Director

MEET BORIS MALAGURSKI

Serbian film critic Dubravka Lakic wrote that Malagurski „indisputably made a full-blooded and, for our cinematic terms, insurpassed documentary.“

Where It All Started

Born in 1988 to Prof. Dr. Branislav Malagurski and Slavica Malagurski, Boris grew up in the northern Serbian town of Subotica.

Malagurski’s last name originates from the Polish town of Mała Góra. In the 17th century, a soldier from that town fought under the command of John III Sobieski against the Turks in the Battle of Senta and afterwards decided decided to stay in Subotica, which is now in the Serbian province of Vojvodina.

Malagurski emigrated to Canada in 2005. While studying Film Production at the University of British Columbia, Malagurski became a Canadian citizen and founded the Malagurski Cinema production company.
