    by Zlatko Bourek

    The film is based on the old folk song »DOČEPALE GA SE«. Captain Arbanas Marko wakes up from a drunken hangover, his head has no strength, but as soon as he manages to stand on his feet, he grabs the cat, which magically restores his strength. He is again the bravest, the strongest, like yesterday, he kills the ox with one stroke of the cat. His presence gave strength to the boys of the ball, which reverberated over three hills and valleys. Across three hills and a valley where three beautiful sisters live, where Arbanas rushes madly, promises them and brings them to his drunken company as a trophy. Marko falls again at the mamuran mountain from which three white knights will impale him on the cross. Marko still manages to see who the three white knights are at the posthumous bully…

    The story follows the key dramatic moments of Miroslav Krlež’s “The Ballade of Petrica Kerempuh”, accompanied by Kajkavian verses. The grotesque character of Bourek’s drawing poprime u pokretu tražiće dimenzije krležijanskog sižentanja pastrišti, kao voracious visions of blood, fire and fog on Croatian territory during the war against the Turks. Panoramas, movements of the flesh, insistence on dramatic events, all this is a new and unique initiative in our cartoon film.
