Danilo Kiš

Goran Markovic's first movie, based on the short story of the same name by Boris Pilnyak. In the movie, a man is killed in the middle of nowhere, seemingly on someone's orders. After finishing the job, the killer returns to Belgrade, where he came from.

Two characters spend days in over-questioning themselves and arguing about the first and last matters of ephemeral human existence.

Written and performed in 1968, Night and Fog is, in Kiš’s words, “a set of lyrical variations on the theme of time and memory”. After 20 years, Andreas Sam returns to a Hungarian village where he spent the war years. Each of the three characters-Andy, Mrs & Mr.Rigo – sees the past in their own way.

The topic of this routine, romantic drama is a little unusual - it concerns what some prisoners do when they are allowed out of jail for two weeks before their sentences are up. Rather than receiving some special dispensation, it turns out that in Yugoslavia this was the custom. Most of the time, the men here are engaged in pursuits that forward their relationships with the fairer sex, as might be expected after a long and lonely incarceration. There is nothing particularly profound about their two weeks of liberty, and no deep message in the tale.

A story of a Jewish-Hungarian-Serbian family. The plot is centered about trying of an adult son to reconstruct his childhood dream of and memories. Looms, but a sunken world, the central European town with its figures, the way to experiencing deep and see a sensitive boy, his father, who by their fears that penetrate to the bone and the final humiliation of acting madness escapes and becomes a lonely, pathetic buffoon in the drama of life.
