I agree with the previous comment from Sweden. The film is really great.It is based on the book, whose writer is Vuk Draskovic It is worth seeing, for the Serbian, and also other people from SFR Yugoslavia.It reveals some important things. You cannot stay indifferent after watching this movie.It has historical, love and thriller elements. On the Festival in Moscow, some said that this movie should have been filmed much earlier. Zarko Lausevic is really, really excellent!Aleksandar Bercek, Bojana Maljevic also, and others. For the end i want to say hello... to the great actor, the leading role in this film, wherever he is!! If you liked this movie, you should watch some other films from M. Lekic,with Zarko Lausevic: like - Better than escape, It happened on this day

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.

8/10

An absolute masterpiece. With an extremely anti-war message. You should always go back to this great movie. Zarko Lausevic, Bojana Maljevic, Petar Bozovic and of course Aleksandar Bercek have played exceptionally good roles. But the other actors are great too. A good ending that has nothing to do with the novel. Bravo for everyone.

One of the best movies. Top production, best cast, outstanding story against the war. Zarko and Bojana are the best couple ever. I'm sorry that many actors are no longer with us. Great roles have played here.

This film follows almost 100 years of geopolitical fight in what used to be former Yugoslavia.

Since that country was created on December 1, 1918 geopolitical fight for territory and power started and it is still present today.

This film follows that pattern and it is based on a novel by Vuk Draskovic, Serb novelist and politician.

I am not very fond of this film, simply because we who live on the territory of what used to be Yugoslavia are mostly sick and tired of that geopolitical religious crap. So I will just throw this film into the waste bin and try to forget all about it.

If you are interested in the former Yugoslavia this is a film for you, otherwise skip it.
