The trailer for a Slovene docudrama that suggests America bought its space programme from Tito’s Yugoslavia has had almost a million net views. Balkan Insight spoke to authors Bostjan and Ziga Virc.

Two young Slovenian film makers, Bostjan and Ziga Virc, have not only given a new dimension to conspiracy theories about President Tito's role in the Cold War era space race. They have also created one of the most significant Internet phenomena in years.

Judging by the immense popularity on the Internet of the trailer for their forthcoming film, hundreds of thousands of ex-Yugoslavs appear fascinated by the idea that their country played a key role in the space race – and that Americans only landed on the Moon thanks to a programme secretly purchased from what was then a Communist country.

The Virc brothers freely admit that they are combining fiction with facts in Houston, We Have a Problem, which intends to claim that a Yugoslav space programme was sold to Washington just years before Apollo landed on the Moon.
