Movie Info
On a harsh winter night in Belgrade, Serbia, an ex-con working as a taxi driver (Nebojsa Glogovac) has a series of bizarre encounters with tragic passengers from all walks of life, each a part of a patchwork of stories. Elsewhere, Ana (Mirjana Jokovic) survives a bus hijacking, only to find herself caught between a drug dealer and an angry boyfriend. And on the other side of town, passionate showman Boris (Nikola Ristanovski) struggles to entertain a tough crowd in a smoky cabaret.

Mar 05, 2014Interrelated midnight stories about a bunch of unlikeable Balkan swines unfold simultaneously in the 1998 winner of the FIPRESCI Prize at the Venice Film Festival. A heavy dose of tragedy, black humor, exaggerated drama, jealousy, crime and a rebellious youth rising against the system imposed over a long-time repressed nation explode (sometimes literally) while we are just taken aboard an unusual ride of unpredictable proportions and unbelievable moments featuring the endless, multifaceted idiocy of humankind. It's like a humble mashup of <i>Slacker</i> (1991), <i>Pulp Fiction</i> (1994) and Kusturica's chronological disorder, but with a smaller scope. It never mattered how theatrical or fantastical it began to get; at the end of the day, irrevocably, everything felt very human. 86/100Edgar C Super Reviewer
