Maverick from the Edge

Story of the cradle of Slovenia's intellectual and sporting elite, Slovenian vitality, confidence and national pride.

IMDbAdventureDocumentary

Joža Čop, an illiterate man of the people, earned great respect from his fellow compatriots. He once famously said: "I’ve never climbed for fame and newspapers, so that people could wipe their asses with me." The film is also a story of the cradle of Slovenia's intellectual and sporting elite, Slovenian vitality, confidence and national pride.
