A much awaited romance/drama by a young, fresh director Marko Naberšnik has yet again, after a certain dry spell, filled movie theaters across Slovenia. It also, in the absence of real competition, won a bunch of awards on this years slovenian film festival and Naberšnik was quickly praised as the savior of slovenian cinematography. Well, I must say the movie is »watchable« but I certainly wouldn't go so far as to compare Naberšnik to Emir Kusturica as some critics did. The plot is not particularly original or daring and some elements of the story just pop-up from nowhere as if they were made-up on the go. The humor is weak or just plain boring. The only impressive thing about this movie is really great acting by Vlado Novak as the owner of the auto-repair shop and both romantic protagonists, Primož Bezjak and Pia Zemljič. All in all – I recommend you see this movie but I wouldn't watch it twice
