Nepažnjom francuskog vojnika, 18. avgusta 1917 godine u Solunu je izbio
veliki požar, koji je trajao nekoliko dana, uništio veliki deo grada uz
ljudske žrtve i veliku materijalnu. Nepunih godinu dana ranije osnovana
je Filmska sekcija srpske vojske i u požaru je stradala njena tek iz
Italije nabavljena laboratorija za razvijanje filmova. Zauzvrat,
snimatelj sekcije poručnik Mika Mihajlović Afrika je zabeležio sve
detalje događaja – vojnike i civile na plaži, panoramski snimak grada
bez naznake drame koja se dešava, postepeni ulazak u grad pokriven crnim
dimom, da bi se tek snimkom iz čamca ukazale prave razmere katastrofe.
Snimateljsko umeće Mike Afrike najviše je došlo do izražaja u prikazu
fatalističke mirnoće sa kojom su građani Soluna prihvatili događaj –
jednoličan, uporan iako beznadežan rad vatrogasaca na gašenju, lagano,
kao da su u šetnji, kretanje molom građana sa spašenim zavežljajima..
Due to one French soldier lack of attention, on the 18th August
1917 there was a great fire in Thessaloniki, which lasted several days,
destroyed a large part of the town and brought out many human victims
and enormous material damage. Almost a year before this incident, the
Film department of the Serbian army was founded and in this fire the
newly acquired laboratory for film development from Italy was destroyed.
In return, the cinematographer of the department, Colonel Mika
Mihajlović Afrika, recorded all details of this event – soldiers and
civilians on the beach, panoramic shot of the town without any
indication of the ongoing drama, gradual spreading of the black smoke
that covered the town, only to show the real scales of disaster by the
shot made from a boat. Cinematography skills of Mika Afrika were
revealed mostly in the display of fatalistic serenity with which the
citizens of Thessaloniki accepted this catastrophe – monotonous and
persistent, albeit hopeless work of the fire-fighters on putting out the
fire; slow moving of the citizens on pier, as if going for a stroll,
carrying rescued bundles.
