I saw this at the Munich Film Festival and was very affected by it. It is not a perfect film -- others have already mentioned the clichés--but the overall effect was very powerful. The main actress was brilliant as well as beautiful as the disturbed 14 year old and I predict she will be a future star.

The director had some interesting things to say during the Q and A session afterwards. Commenting on the explicit sex scenes she said that it was realistic and that teens nowadays were having more and more extreme sex as a direct result of porn. "I guarantee teens here have seen double and quadruple penetrations online!"

"Enjoy" is the wrong word for the experience once has when watching this but it is a film that should be watched by parents and teens everywhere.

Is this the kind of nihilistic world we are leaving for our future generations?

As a side note--I am sure this film will be banned in many countries (which is a pity) as it could be seen, by the more conservative, as child pornography.

the main premise of the movie is to give a brutal insight into the everyday life of the Serbian youth through the eyes of a coming-of-age girl entering the adult (sex) life.

there is not much of a plot, and development of the characters is shallow. it seems that the main concern for the author is to shock and provoke the audience through the scenes of underage explicit eroticism. it's a shame the move hasn't went further with the story, and stops the half way compared to the likes of "kids (1995)". it more follows the pattern of the recent series of Serbian movies: "a Serbian movie", "the life and death of a porno gang"...

Don't spend time on this movie, it is depressingly depressing and leads to nothing. It is about adolescents without future in a derelict suburb in Serbia. These young people apparently were not guided in there change-over from child-play to sex-driven behavior, they are now at. They show no restraint at all. The film ends how it started, it is an empty container. There is another reason why this movie is to be avoided. If a character is sad, the actor needs not to be, he acts as if he is sad. If character is happy, the actor acts as if he is happy, he needs not to be. If a character has sex, the actor acts as if he has sex. You feel where this went wrong. The actors, minors, indulge way to much in sex, explicit sex. And although the credits say prosthetics where used, it is obvious this movie crossed the line between a play and pornography. And that is more than sad, considering that the leading part is played by a girl of only 14 years old. You could just as well say this movie borders on child abuse.

I've already watched a couple of movies about crazy teenagers (Thirteen, The Babysitters, series Skins) but this is probably most explicit and closest to me because come from a similar environment. I especially liked the music, Folk Music has never sounded good like in this film, according to that put the right thing in the right place. Young actors have done a super job and the director for whom I've never heard before had done excellent mix between footage from a mobile device and movie camera, I was not so painful to watch as usually After I've seen the Serbian movie and "Život i smrt porno bande" which gave me nightmares I was a little scared of the new Serbian Brutale but still not even close that hardcore though the very real and tragic.

Emphasised too much on sexual scenes. No good storyline. No conclusion drawn. But the concept could be exploited in a tragic dramatic way.
