The documentary film Timecapsule presents a building founded by the Yugoslav army for children with respiratory health problems. It was built in modernism by a Croatian architect Rikard Marasović who is very little known. The story of Krvavica from the construction time to the time of devastation in the 2000s, and possible solutions for the future is spoken from Rikard Marasović’s perspective. His voice is an omnivoice of the Krvavica community, professionals, architects, and former employees who worked in the building during the time of its active period. The documentary film Timecapsule aims to reveal the architect’s persona as an authority and his project of Krvavica, presenting the interest in preservation and potential renovation of the building in the future as a multipurpose object for culture and development of this small coastal city.
