One café, six unhinged Serbians, zero chill — chaos has a reservation.
Caffe 'Boomerang' is one of Belgrade's many cafes. Seemingly just a backdrop for our cast of crazy characters, but in reality much more than that.
Acting
Ensemble chemistry that feels accidentally documentary.
Writing
Tight farce structure hiding genuine melancholy.
Production
Belgrade café as character, not just set.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Shot during Serbia's post-Milošević transition, the café becomes a metaphor for a nation awkwardly rebuilding public life.
Lazar Ristovski and Nebojša Glogovac were already Yugoslav cinema royalty; their improvised bickering was reportedly too real for multiple takes.
