Decko koji obecava

The Promising Lad (1981), a quirky little drama and solemn comedy set around the circle of characters of the Belgrade New Wave scene at the dawning of the 80's, with some great music from the local new wave/postpunk bands of the era, with some songs written for the movie alone.

Quick set-up - young Belgrade student-type guy, after some "accidents" and head trauma, starts coming to different terms with his life and his surroundings, while getting involved in Belgrade underground new wave scene...

Solid little flick, and it's one of the few homeborn movies of the time that doesn't feel much "heavy" - it's rather entertaining but also quite thoughtful social drama.

7/10.
