I saw this movie twice, and it was an absolute blast both times. The first time was a hilarious comedy, and the second was a deep, philosophical satire for me. Perhaps it is so good in its comedy that you cannot see all the issues it addresses at first, but you will absorb the whole political idea anyway (that will make you see it again). It carries bittersweet emotions typical for the Balkans. It feels like Hangover but directed by Kosturica during the 90s crisis. The cinematography is beautiful, and the aesthetics are right on the spot. What completes this underrated masterpiece is the acting, which is brave and revolutionary in terms of film acting in Macedonia. All actors are believable, especially the two main characters who have developed complex characters that are perfectly portrayed. However, the most fascinating thing is that this movie was made with 0 budget! I just discovered that yesterday and I am proud Macedonian movie manic now. Go see it!
