"But director Roth insists his aim in making the film was not to offend Slovakians but to highlight the ignorance of US cinema-goers. He says, "Americans do not even know that this country exists. My film is not a geographical work but aims to show Americans' ignorance of the world around them." "

So, he wants to assure Slovakians that he was not trying to offend them, only point out how stupid Americans are???

Just so long as he was offending Americans instead of Slovakians, I guess that makes it okay.

"Slovakians"

It is "SLOVAK"... Slovak people, Slovak food, Slovak language. NOT "Slovakian"

Just one of my pet heaves :)

Bye the way, for those who are interested in Slovakia, I recommend:

There is also a forum section.
