On 2 June, Palac gore attended the screening of Tour to Strasbourg at the European Parliament, hosted by MEP Irena Joveva.
The documentary by Radovan Seratlić and colleagues follows the extraordinary journey of Serbian students who cycled from Novi Sad to Strasbourg in April 2025, carrying a message that reached far beyond Serbia: democracy, accountability and the rule of law matter.
It was powerful to hear again from Radovan and from students who made the journey themselves, alongside MEPs, European Parliament Vice-Presidents Sophie Wilmès, Martin Hojsík and Nicolae Ștefănuță, and Gordan Bosanac.
For us, this was more than a film screening.
A year ago, some of us stood in Strasbourg, waiting to welcome the students after hundreds of kilometres on the road.
A month later, we stood in Brussels welcoming the student marathon runners.
Yesterday, we stood in the European Parliament, watching their story on screen, reminded once again that courage is contagious.
Their fight is not only for Serbia. It is about the kind of Europe we want to live in – one where democracy is defended, institutions serve citizens, and people still believe that change is worth fighting for.
Thank you to the students for reminding Europe what it is capable of being.
