At a small border-post on the Yugoslav-Albanian border, yet another generation of soldiers suffering the usual amount of boredom awaits the end of their service, counting days to the moment when they should take their uniforms off for good. It is the spring of 1987 and the thought never even crosses their mind that they would, in fact, put them back on quite soon and go to war.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Director Rajko Grlić constructs a poignant narrative that relies on the stark contrast between the comedic absurdity of military routine and a looming dramatic tension. It explores the psychology of waiting, using the isolated border post as a powerful metaphor for a fragile peace on the brink.

What lingers after the credits is a profound sense of how ordinary life and humor can be abruptly shattered by the tides of history. A sobering memorial to a generation caught off-guard. — MovieFinder Editorial

Director: Rajko Grlić
