Sečnja Rogoze / Cutting Rogoza Simon Žl ahti č

Ponovno rezidenčno bivanje umetnika je rezultiralo v zanimivem dokumentarcu Sečnja Rogoze. Daniel Djamo je spoznal aktualno okoljevarstveno in politično problematiko, ki je bila vezana na sečnjo rogoškega gozda in prihod velikega kapitala v lokalni prostor. V bližini nekdanjega industrijskega mesta Maribor, v sosednji občini Hoče-Slivnica, nastaja nova industrijska cona regije. Na območju nekdanjih kmetijskih površin rastejo nove industrijske hale. Zadnji veliki projekt v nastajanju je nova tovarna multinacionalke Magna-Steyr. Prvotno predvidenih in kasneje dejansko uničenih je bilo 100 hektarov prvovrstnih njiv. Kot izravnalni ukrep izgubi zemljišč so oblastniki predvideli nadomestna kmetijska zemljišča na območju Rogoškega gozda. Občina je v ta namen pravno omogočila sečnjo 66 hektarov gozda za nove kmetijske površine, s čimer so pripravili teren za golosek gozda, ki je po slovenski zakonodaji prepovedan. Prebivalke_ci Rogoze, naselja, ujetega med rastočo industrijsko cono in gozdom, so se znotraj skupnosti povezale_i in se nameri občine in države uprle_i. S poseko bi namreč izgubili_e zadnje zatočišče pred urbanizacijo podeželja, kot tudi pomemben naravni habitat z ekološko funkcijo blaženja že prisotnih negativnih vplivov industrializacije. Avtor v dokumentarnem filmu skozi svojo estetiko raziskuje problematiko dogajanja okoli Rogoškega gozda, ki se je močno dotaknilo tako lokalnega prebivalstva kot tudi širše Slovenije. Skozi filmski objektiv predstavlja dvopolnost, ujetost ljudi med urbanizacijo in naravo, ljudstvom in oblastjo. Film, ki se je močno navezal na aktualno tematiko, je bil prvi dokumentarni zapis o dogajanju na tem območju. Povzema začetke bojev prebivalcev_k Rogoze, a ob enem predstavi tudi stališče lokalnih oblasti. The recurrent stay of the artist resulted in an interesting documentary called Cutting Rogoza. Daniel Djamo got acquainted with the current political and environmental issues, which are connected to the cutting of the Rogoza forest and the arrival of big capital to a local environment. In the vicinity of the former industrial city Maribor, in the neighboring municipality Hoče-Slivnica, the region’s new industrial zone is being constructed. New industrial halls are growing on former agricultural areas. The latest project in the making is the construction of a factory from the multinational company Magna-Steyr. The original estimates, the realization of which followed soon, claimed 100 ha of first class soil would be destroyed in the process. As a balancing measure, the authorities offered replacement agricultural land on the grounds of the Rogoza forest. For this purpose, the municipality authorized the destruction of 66 ha of the forest to provide replacement agricultural areas by making it legal, with which they enabled clearcutting the whole forest, an act that is otherwise prohibited by Slovenian legislation. The residents of Rogoza, a settlement trapped between a growing industrial zone and a forest, have connected within the community and stood against the intentions of the municipality and the government. With the clearing of the forest, they would lose their last shelter from the urbanization of the countryside as well as an important natural habitat with an important function of lessening the already present negative effects of the industrialization. In the documentary, the author researches the issues concerning the events around Rogoza forest through his esthetics, as the events resonated with the local community and the whole country. Through the medium of documentaries, the author portrays the bipolarity, the entrapment of people between urbanization and nature, between the people and the government. The documentary, which was strongly influenced by the current thematic, was the first documentary about the events in this area. It captures the initial battles of Rogoza residents, while also presenting the viewpoint of the local authorities.
