The title of this film has a bitter irony. Bleak fates summoned together at a café. Tom drives an ambulance and is in love with Mira. Mira loves a criminal who abuses her. Duja's pride is a motor bike. The owner of the café hires two kids to steal it. They are shot in the attempted robbery.. No work, no hope, nothing is there for these people in the suburbs of Beograd. Flashbacks show us that the violence around them has a history. Beatings have been the number one problem killer there.
They could try to get a better life in another country. Maybe Greece, maybe Hungary.
So this is one vision of Serbia: a country with darkness, buildings that fall together, and almost perpetual rain. No glimpses of hope, no rays of sun shine and no freedom. The message is clear; it would have been A bit more subtlety would have been welcome.
6/10
