  • The Gipsy Ballad

    2004 16+ 9 min

    by Marko Meštrović, Davor Međurečan

    The film is based on a poem Ciganska, written by Miroslav Krleža, one of the greatest Croatian literary authors. The atmosphere, the complex surreal characters, and furthermore, the choice of an austere Krleža’s poem (1936), shows authors have made an aware reference to German expressionism. That way they have focused on depicting the psyche of characters, particularly stressing out ultimate angst, alienation in urban jungle, or baffling drive for self-destruction.
