Actually, We Were Revolutionaries is a provocative short documentary profiling Julienne Eden Bušić, an American who became fiercely bound to the Croatian independence movement during the Cold War. Featuring her final interview before her recent death, the film traces her escalation from staging a peaceful 1970 leaflet protest in Zagreb to her role in the infamous 1976 hijacking of TWA Flight 355. Director Vera Zoričić masterfully weaves declassified documents and archival footage to explore the razor-thin line between idealistic freedom fighter and convicted terrorist.
