Raša is 30, lives with his alcoholic father and trying, and failing, to make ends meet by giving literature lessons to teenage girls and hosting a program on the local radio, presenting new books and interviewing authors. Ivan, a promising judo fighter in his teenage years, has since had a history of neurosis, psychotic episodes, hospitalization, being heavily medicated, involvement in various occult groups and practices, prior to having been baptized in the Orthodox Church.
This film feels like a melancholic, darkly humorous journey through lives grappling with unfulfilled potential and the echoes of the past. It's a slow-burn, character-driven drama steeped in gritty realism, offering a poignant look at friendship and the quiet desperation of everyday existence. Perfect for a reflective, late-night watch.
