PRESS EXCERPTS:

"Writer-helmer Darko Mitrevski keeps pushing the envelope... The cynical, hallucinatory, modern Pilgrim's Progress is a trip, with memorably out-there sequences sure to build a cult rep among adventuresome cineastes" (Dennis Harvey on Bal-can-can, VARIETY)

"The film is rich in period detail and local color, and gives an impressive picture of its setting. Mitrevski manages to coherently put together all the complicated details of the period and the geopolitical situation... The most ambitious Macedonian film since 1994 Venice winner Before the Rain. (Vladan Petkovic on The Third Half, CINEUROPA)

"Hysterically funny dark comedy, throbbing with vitality... Darko Mitrevski is a director who could soon elbow Emir Kusturica aside from the snug position of the Balkan genius." (Stas Tyrkin on Balcancan, MANEŽ)
