An old bus, owned by "Krstic & son" is heading from unnamed province to the capital Belgrade, just one day before Nazis attacked Yugoslavia in april 1941. The writer Dusan Kovacevic stated that this story was inspired by true events and real people. They all had their reasons why they needed to get to Belgrade as soon as possible, not knowing that their destiny was uncertain. And their stories and characters get twisted together in a series of events that make you laugh in disbelief. This comedy and drama is so popular in all of ex Yugoslavia, that even young people know the most of dialogs from this movie by heart. They have become the part of the popular culture. Dusan Kovacevic manages to make those characters so real and alive. The cast is the first class, all of the actors come from the best theaters in the country. No use to tell the story and spoil the joy of watching. Just to tell how good it is: the play is staged in theaters around the country for more than 30 years!

I will not waste time trying to explain technical details, photography, etc. since I am not an expert for that. When one watches the movie, all it matters is do you get bored during the show at any point? Not with this one! And the feeling you get after: do you get excited? Do you want to watch it again? Oh, yes! It is funny, interesting, it makes you laugh, it makes you cry. You will see that different cultures are not so different and that destiny can play tricks with everyone and everywhere.

If you've seen "The Marathon Family" or "The Balkan Spy" and you liked it, know that this one comes from the same kitchen so it will taste great.
