SectionOPENING FILM / CURRENT ENGAGING CINEMA

A serious comedy about the pursuit of happiness! The film has already won several awards a.o. for best direction and Goran Navojec won an award for his role in the film. Dutch Premiere

SYNOPSIS

The search for real love is often a lonely path strewn with all sorts of situations from embarrassing to funny. Love is the universal force that pastry-shop worker Verica, opera singer Brankica, Martin, a Spaniard, two nurses who think a lot about men, one farmer with rather unusual farming talents, a gravely ill woman of an unusual sexual orientation and a handyman who adores all ‘pretty women’ have in common. An accidental series of events will intertwine their destinies and make unsolvable situations solvable.

Een serieuze komedie over het nastreven van geluk. Multi-bekroonde film: won al verschillende prijzen voor de beste regie en Goran Navojec won een award voor zijn rol.

VERHAAL

De zoektocht naar ware liefde is vaak een eenzame weg met allerlei emoties en situaties – van beschamend tot grappig. Liefde is de universele kracht die patisseriewinkelwerknemer Verica, operazangeres Brankica, Spanjaard Martin, twee verpleegkundigen die veel aan mannen denken, een boer met nogal ongewone landbouwtalenten, een ernstig zieke vrouw met een bijzondere seksuele geaardheid en een klusjesman die is dol op alle ‘mooie vrouwen’ met elkaar gemeen hebben. Een toevallige reeks gebeurtenissen verstrengelt hun lot en maakt onoplosbare situaties oplosbaar.
