A romantic comedy about the lives of high-school students. The first real Slovenian comedy, shot by the Czech František Čap with a bunch of then non-professional actors. “Vesna is a technically flawless film, with which Čap has taken Slovenian cinema to a completely new quality level. The film is distinguished by an elegant editing, meaningful dialogues, witty humorous inserts and a conventional, but sensitive composition”(Dr. Peter Stanković, film historian). The most important Slovenian film awards are named after the leading role of Vesna.
