The film takes us to fields across Europe growing our fruit and vegetables. Seydou, from Mali, picks oranges in southern Italy. He has no contract and is paid by the crate, living in a hut he built himself in a settlement without water or electricity… Blueberries in Portugal, olives in Greece, strawberries in Spain—over two million migrant workers labour across Europe’s fields, most without contracts and earning minimum wage, some undocumented and deep in debt with agents.

Third World is more than just a documentary about Haustor, the legendary Zagreb band that left its mark on the former Yugoslavia’s music scene. It is the story of two creative opposites: Darko Rundek and Srđan Sacher. Through candid conversations, a studio reunion, and a wealth of archival material, the film reveals how the two artists’ sensitivity to the magic of everyday life once united their creative worlds – creating a third.
