The Commitments Subtitles — Slovenian

Marko, a dedicated fan, undertook the challenge of translating the 1991 cult film The Commitments from Irish English into Slovenian. He sought to capture the raw, working-class soul of the Dublin-based band, carefully adapting local slang to resonate with a Slovenian audience, a process that highlights the cultural nuance in translation. Using AI tools to assist with timing, he successfully brought the story of the band to a new audience, demonstrating the universal appeal of their pursuit of musical success. This creative endeavor highlights how subtitles can bridge the gap between different cultures, allowing the story’s spirit to be felt, not just read.
