Underground (ej svensk text)

This extraordinarily dramatic black tragi-comedy is an epic tale of love, friendship and betrayal set against the complex historical backdrop of the former Yugoslavia. The story follows two likeable crooks - Marko, a charmer who manipulates everyone within his reach, and the foolish but loveable Blacky - and Natalija, an actress of easy virtue with whom they are both in love. The three become embroiled in a world of conflict, self-delusion and deceit - but where there are also moments of tenderness and love - in this visionary allegory of Balkan vitality, energy, humour and the will to survive.
