Three different love stories, set in three consecutive decades, in two neighboring Balkan villages burdened with a long history of inter-ethnic hatred: this is a film about the dangers – and the enduring strength – of forbidden love. (Cannes Film Festival)
Reviews (1)
The Balkan model of metaphorical projection of the region's history into an intimate story and the plan of a love triptych elevated to a completely new (current) level. Kusturica et al. are enclosed in increasingly lifeless burlesques, Matanić finds a whole new life in traumatic history and captivating directing energy, which is one of the highlights of this year's festival. #kviff2015
