Noz

One of the most powerful films ever made.

The story is very true, realistic, convincing, complex and painful.

There is very little things to say about it.

This is one of the movies after which you can't stop thinking about the story for a very long time.

Along with another masterpieces "Pretty Village, Pretty Flame", "The Trap", "The Wounds", "Hadersfild".....

Hopefully everyone will have the chance to see "NOZ",

because its not just a film, its a HISTORY of a nation.

I recommend it to anyone who likes a good film.

But don't expect anything in "American" style on this one.

This movie left me breathless. I will never forget this movie as long as i live. Actors were brilliant. I dont have words to describe it. Dont watch it unless you dont know Yugoslavian history or else you wont be able to understand this movie. There is truth behind it that needs to be discovered.

The story in this film really depicts the main reason and cause of the breakup of the former Yugoslavia. The movie may have it's roots in depicting historic issues between ethnic and religious conflict as "one sided" but it also has historic basis and fact that can be researched and validated. To call it Serbian propaganda is utter rubbish and based on little fact other than media bias that is used by the previous reviewer to his own end. The author of the book (Vuk Draskovic) made a valiant attempt to deal with a very sensitive subject that deals with hatred perpetuated for past wrongs that have never been fully exposed or repatriated. The film tries to keep in tune to the book and its true focus and theme - hidden historic wrongs only come back as retaliations and future food for hatred and mistrust.

A true masterpiece of Serbian cinema explaining to the core a 600 year old feud between Serbian Muslims and Serbian Orthodox Christians, and also a great story written by Vuk Draskovic that doesn't fail to entertain anyone and leaves no one without a comment and strong reaction.

The story is true, realistic, painful, historically accurate and backed by strong historical facts.

Zarko Lausevic provided a extraordinary performance. Vojin Cetkovic, Petar Bozovic, Bojana Maljevic also provided quality performances. Miroslav Lekic proves once again he is a director that deserves respect.

I recommend this movie to everyone.

I get creeps every time I hear a split on Serbs and Muslims. Being a Serb is a national affiliation, being a Muslim is a religious affiliation. It's as if we divided cars into German and sports, or movies into comedies and black and white. The tragedy of this area is ironic and I do not know what these people have sinned so much to deserve such karma. Demos divided into three religions, imbued and poisoned with religious hatred, brainwashed to slaughter each other again and again. It would be funny to me if I didn't belong to that folk. As if we have fallen out of some morbid joke. If we neglect the production and flaws of the domestic film that we learned to ignore, we are left with a story that perfectly and painfully portrays all the irony and all the meaninglessness of the Balkan wars. For most of the movie I felt disgust and shame, and in the scene where Halil crossed on his knees over the ruins of the church, I've shed a tear. I think it's one of the most powerful scenes in domestic cinematography. Draskovic wrote this novel in 1982, and with all my heart I would like to believe that the bullcrap of the 1990s would not happen if everyone had read it then. But I don't.
