A scene from Lola rennt. (source)
Eagle-eyed crni recently posted this screenshot from the German film Lola rennt. (Run Lola Run) In the background you can see the fiercly-bearded Slovenian painter Rihard JakopiÄ?, who graces the 100-tolar note.
The majority of people who saw the film undoubtedly didn’t recognize it, and now that Slovenia has confirmed that it will adopt the euro next year, even less people will recognize it in the future. My children, for example, will probably have no idea what it is — just as they won’t have any clue about the two currencies (the dinar and the transitional tolar) that were in circulation here just 15 years ago. The Slovenian tolar had a short but great run, and in just four months, it will be a memory.
I think I’ll miss JakopiÄ? the most.
