There was an awesome documentary a while ago on Slovenian national TV about ''the scene'' in the late 80s. Man, what a time that was!

Highlights:
-You had to smuggle a computer across the border, usually from Austria. That was a sort of the national past time so everybody was doing but a (now pretty famous) dude was explaining how he got busted on the border, tried to show the officer some fake documents of ownership and when he didn't buy the story and left for some papers, grabbed the spectrum, broke out the window, ran for about 10 km through the forrest and got picked up by an accomplice who also ran for it. Nobody was allowed to buy computers and everyone had them.

- A student radio had a weekly show where they would broadcast programs that you could tape.

- There was a pirateware market in the capital. On the main produce market. Banners, stands and everything. There were two sections: for Commodores and Spectrums and they each had one stand. First come, first serve so sellers would start setting them up at 3 am.

Edit: actually, there's a trailer with subtitles...
