"Just Between Us" is a wicked, indiscreet contemporary story set in Zagreb about the whirling erotic passions that percolate beneath the dull, composed surface of everyday bourgeois life and manners. It is about things that happen in well-established families that are mainly kept secret, but that nevertheless remain painful. We meet two brothers, their wives and lovers - and their children who do not know who their real fathers are. Double lives and parallel relationships are blended into a bittersweet story about the relentless quest for love and happiness, about passion that never ceases, and the terrible consequences that arise, even by chance, when one ends up in a bed that is not one’s own.

English It was hard for me to understand this anti-love drama presenting opinions that differ from the usual standard of life and that is why it is so distinctive. It’s a pity that this distinction suppresses any kind of emotion I should feel for this movie. ()

English Zagreb native Rajko Grlić graduated from FAMU in Prague (what a wonder) and in his current film presented a successful partner tragicomedy, which Czech filmmakers have been trying to make in vain for years. He did not transform the environment of a modern better-situated family into an irreverent idyll, as is often seen in Czech movie theatres, but rather into a sarcastic, peppery but not vulgar erotic web, in which small and big lies, betrayals and infidelity play the primary role. Through a slow-paced, accessible form, the film must be suited to a mass audience, but in any case, it will entertain anyone with its vital dialogue and nonviolent humor. A demonstration of a commercially promising item that doesn't offend. And most importantly, Miki Manojlović still knows how to be a charming liar. [IFF KV 2010] ()
