An exciting and realistic drama takes place on the Belgrade’s streets showed through action sequences is the most watched film in the past decade according to the list published by the Film Centre of Serbia.
“It is truly amazing that in the last decades there have been only a few attempts to make a film that had organized crime as the main topic. It seemed to be an insufficiently interesting or insufficiently “intellectual” topic for our directors and screenwriters. Until now, criminals have been mostly shown in Serbian film as caricatures or grotesque depictions, as something that does not deserve serious treatment. I think that this film will fill the gap in Serbian cinema and give the topic of organized crime a new meaning.”
