The Zagreb theatre group BADco. gave, on 9 March a performance of its play 1 poor and 1 0. The play is in essence a reconstruction of the first film ever shot, Workers Leaving the Lumiere Factory, by the Lumiere Brothers. It is an overview of parallel histories of industrial production, of film and of choreography throughout the 20th century. The show attracted a huge audience, including the representative of the Embassy." http://www.jutarnji.hr/badco--na-medunarodnoj-turneji-sto-se-dogodilo-nakon-izlaska-radnika-iz-tvornice-/1171022/
