(Black Cat, White Cat; Crna macka, beli macor)
By Emir Kusturica
East European "Felliniesque" farce set among the Gypsies and gangsters who roam a dilapidated stretch of the Danube, Couldn't be farther from the images of wartorn Balkans. Over the top, baroque, fun and poetically uplifting.
A reckless, explosive production (unlike most recent European 'art' film productions).
Caution: manic, carnivalesque style that could be exhausting (depending on your mood)!
