Cross Country

A very strange Serbian crazy mix on the topic of what to do with a busy evening. The black Nigerian boy Slobodan arrives as the manager of a newly built crematorium. On the advice of her father, the young daughter of the local priest Jovan drives away her interest in men with regular running workouts. A local farmer and his mother, with whom he shares a bed and won't have it to himself until he gets married, also have their story told. The farmer's sister comes to the village again with Slobodan and Jovana could probably do better, perhaps even the Olympics. It's strange, illogical, arrogant, and aggressive, yet, or maybe because of that, it creates less resistance to an audience that doesn't enjoy Yugoslavia as much. (11/04/2012)
