Synopsis
While weddings are supposed to be happy occasions, one man’s impending marriage leads to a series of bittersweet emotionally fraught and drunken reunions.
After twelve years in Canada, Nele returns to his native city Belgrade to get married to his girlfriend Maya. He soon falls back in with his old pals, and is forced to re-examine his priorities and his plans for the future when he meets his old love again. Shadows of the past hang heaviest over all the lives we see: Nele and his friends are still haunted by the suicide of their friend Sima, who took his own life shortly after Nele’s departure. But there are more losses and mental scars, which gradually come to light.
This award-winning drama explores the émigrés dilemma of never feeling at home, of repulsion for the old and the new, and the most distracting feeling of all, nostalgia. –Taskovski Films
