This movie is one of the funniest, saddest and most accurate portrayals of the mentality that seems to have pervaded the Balkans yet again, 45 years after the time depicted. All the usual characters and conflicts are presented with such anger, sadness and love combined that it is impossible to decide whether crying or laughing would be the more appropriate response. The accuracy of portrayal and the timelessness of the types, however, make it for a great film to watch if one wants to understand a little bit of what drove ex-Yugoslavia to its madness. In fact, no diplomat dealing with the region should attempt anything until they saw this movie, and its twin, *Maratonci trce pocasni krug.* Did I mention it is one of the funniest movies I've ever seen?

I watch quite a few non English speaking films and this one certainly has to be in the highest grade.Pointless me telling you about the film as it's already been explained, but I would like to add, this really is one of the most funniest films I have ever seen, it's truly perfect in every way,full of highs and lows.

Wonderful atmosphere throughout the entire film as well as some wonderful characters, the song that runs through the film sung by two gypsies, "Za Beograd" is a wonderful toe tapping tune that was so popular that apparently it was sung and the end of most discos. I saw this film in Belgrade in 2000, I am so glad that I did, believe me when I say, this really is one film you should see before you die.

This brilliant flick about several people traveling to Belgrade just before start of the WW2 in Yugoslavia is probably worth an Oscar or two. It is very profound, intelligent and, above all, funny. Jokes are typically Balkanesque, which makes it even more original in global circuits.

"Ko to tamo peva" is one of the best films I ever saw. A tragicomedy with very deep implications on the fate of humankind shown through the eyes of seemingly very plain and common people from a God-forsaken Serbian province just before the start of the World War II. I saw it in a small movie theater in Russia where the film had had a very limited distribution, and I had no chance to come across it ever since. It is such a pity that this excellent film is almost forgotten now. I searched for a VHS or DVD copy of it many times, and alas - could find none. I would be most grateful to other fans of this little gem of movie-making for a suggestion of the ways to purchase a copy.

I saw this film (it's English title is "Who's Singing Over There?") at the 1980 Montreal International Film Festival. It won raves then... and disappeared. A terrible shame. It is brilliant. Sublime, ridiculous, sad, and extremely funny. The script is a work of art. It's been 19 years and I've seen only a handful of comedies (or any other genre, for that matter) that can match its originality.
