Knowing the complete oeuvre of Srdjan Dragojevic's filmography, this movie sadly lacks a lot to become at least a pale reflection of his early work.
In the opening 15 minutes, one thing strongly caught my attention: the acting was utterly bad, unconvincing and a bit forced and somehow everything (acting, dialogs, etc.) seemed very cheap.
Known as a kind of liberal, neo-communist, it seems that with this film he wanted to mock the concept of religion in a clumsy quasi-intellectual way.
Instead of building a strong plot, a lot of shots seem unnecessary, some characters as well, which all together makes the plot of this movie disorienting.
Inspired by Marcel Aima's short stories, Dragojevic tried to lean on his early movie success, but instead of something refreshing, we got nothing more than beating a dead horse.
