Farcical comedy about an apartment which is shared by a couple of families plus their relations.

Driven by the trauma of the Holocaust, a young Jewish man arrives in a small town to hunt down the former commandant of the concentration camp where his family was exterminated. Upon discovering that the man has been released after serving only a minimal sentence, he prepares to exact his own brand of justice.

In the summer of 1944, in a peaceful resort town in the Nazi-occupied Yugoslavia, an easy-going lifeguard takes in a widow of a partisan and her young son. Their relationship grows until he unknowingly saves a Nazi officer from drowning.

TV movie by Dimitrije Jovanovic, starring Rahela Ferari.

The heroes are retired general of the Yugoslav Royal Army and a colonel of the Wehrmacht corps who, far away from the battlefront, bent over military maps, with flags representing the warring armies in their hands, like children playing a game, give vent to their obsession to shape history.

A parable about a man who lost his memory. The drama criticizes the milieu that’s become totally false and hypocritical.

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.
