Please read about the 2004 unrest in Kosovo before watching this movie! Otherwise AMAZING acting, Danica did an amazing job with the Serbian accent from Kosovo, as well as did the little girl (her daughter in the movie) for a first big role the girl did an amazing job, the script is superb, and the whole scenery is depicted very well.

The movie itself (aside from the whole background) is about how humans cope with fear, anxiety and everything that comes with it. Very emotional and deep. I highly recommend this movie to everyone, and I must say that this is one of the best Serbian dramas I've seen in the past 10 years or more!

If you were an outsider and didnt know the history behind this movie, you would barely understand anything. The first hour of the movie there is barely anything happening, the movie is just quiet. At 70 minute mark i went to the toilet hoping That when i Come back there Will be something interesting happening. The only rollercoster is literally at the last 15 minutes of the movie, and then at the end of the movie you are left with a lot of unanswered questions (looking from a standpoint where you dont know the history behind the movie). I think it could have been done a lot better.

Milic (director) intended to make a film metaphor about evil and paranoia, about people who are isolated and in constant fear of what the evening brings. The fear in them is so strong that it becomes difficult to distinguish what is real and what is not. Darkling pours from the outside world into the souls of the heroes, slowly eating them from within.

For people with brains.

So intense. Story, sounds, effects...in my opinion one of the best dramas in the last 5,6 years. If you are not familiar with the situation on Kosovo in the 2004. Read about it and watch the movie. Masterpiece.

The movie follows the life of a little girl, her mother and grandfather, who are living in a cabin in the middle of a dense forest in Kosovo surrounded by the menacing presence of the UCK, a criminal nationalist organization that NATO and the European Union financed and used to break Yugoslavia in pieces. The film attempts to dramatize the miserable living conditions of Kosovo Serbs. The direction is excellent, the actors are very good, the location is ideal. Unfortunately, the film ultimately misinforms and lies. And it could not be otherwise since it was financed by the European Union (Eurimages) by the instigate of the great disaster that this Balkan region suffered. We the Balkans remember the bombardment with depleted uranium and the invasion of NATO troops in Yugoslavia, through Greece. We in the Balkans know that KFOR is not an international peace keeping force, but a force of occupation and enforcement of the interests of the European Union and NATO for the dissolution of Yugoslavia and the division of the region in spheres of political influence. It's a shame that a Serbian-born director subjugates his work, which from an artistic side is excellent, to the political and ideological demands of NATO & European Union, who do not take the responsibility for the human and ecological disaster that they caused with the war in Yugoslavia and pretend that they stay there in order to save and protect Serbian children and women (!!!). I would be ashamed if I were Mr. Dusan Milic. The dead and the living compatriots of him deserve the truth.
