Featured review
Let me start with direction, amateur hour cinematography and almost complete lack of knowledge or effort to control the light. Most annoying is the random "greenish" creeping into frames that have completely different natural color as if they bought long expired film roles on eBay. It looks like director entered some apartment, hasn't even thought about a basic set design (starting with the color of the walls) and just let the cam rolling. Occasionally he got lucky, mostly he didn't.
Actors were basically allowed to just repeat the play they did in live theater instead of actually acting for the film and the result looks rather forced - all the way to some actors almost yelling during the normal conversation since they forgot they were not on a stage anymore. In particular the portrayal of a father (Josif Tatic) looks grotesque on silver screen and the crazy neighbor (Nebojsa Glogovac) who has great screen presence looks so overacted and random at times that it lost any believability. They forgot that there has to be a method to a madness :- )
Great little surprise is excellent Suzana Lukic as a horny student (Milica). Best guess - she actually prepared her role for film instead of just repeating stage stuff. Other actors are not bad, just forgettably average in comparison. Nebojsa Glogovac is actually a disappointment since he was supposed to the lead and ended up being a forgettable support. Part of this is also due to lacking direction.
The play itself has been lauded as great but it looks barely average, with a pileup of pseudo-intellectual musings and theological rubbish which at some point in the 3rd quarter of the makes you look at your player's slider to guess when is the drivel going to be over. Some of that might be interesting enough on stage where the audience is used to talking heads spewing a lot of lines and the lack of cinematics but looks like a filler on silver screen.
