Smrt čoveka na Balkanu

Death of a Man in the Balkans is a 2012 Serbian black comedy film with elements of drama written and directed by Miroslav Momčilović. Following showings on the film festival circuit throughout summer 2012, the film had its Serbian premiere on 16 November 2012, after which it went into general theatrical release. Plot An introverted loner who composes music for a living (Nikola Kojo) commits suicide in a Belgrade apartment in front of his web camera. Drawn by the gunshots, his neighbours, handyman Aca (Emir Hadžihafizbegović) and bean-loving Vesko (Radoslav Milenković), gather in the dead man's apartment waiting for the paramedics, police, and forensic investigator to show up. Their respective wives Nada (Nataša Ninković) and Vera (Anita Mančić) also come in and out. They pass time by eating, drinking, playing chess, and telling stories of the deceased man unaware that the webcam is still running. They extol his music though nobody can quite remember his name. When they finally arrive, paramedics and police display more concern for their personal mobile phone conversations than for the dead man. Eventually, even a glib real-estate agent (Nikola Đuričko) shows up with a reluctant client (Mirjana Karanović) as well as a pizza delivery guy (Miloš Samolov).
