Maksim - Game Of Thrones 

Music Video, 2019

The forgotten pagan slavic pantheon

Christianity in its conquest overwrote a lot of pagan cultures and belief systems. The Slavic tribes had more than thirty gods to represent different aspects of nature. To this day, a lot of ancient mythologies thrive being rewritten for the big screen. But to some, the sands of time were less generous. I came upon a book on Slavic mythology dating back to early 20th century, written by a Croatian filmmaker Franjo Ledic. Only a thousand copies exist. 

Since Game Of Thrones pantheon is built upon a remixed version of Indo European paganism, I decided it was time to awaken some old gods and remind Slavs why to this day we keep them in our daily expressions,
superstitions and beliefs.
