POSLJEDNJI SRBIN U HRVATSKOJ

the LAST SERB IN CROATIA

Predrag Ličina
Croatia, Serbia, 2019, 88 Min

Croatia, seven years after the country's bankruptcy. There's barely enough drinking water to go around and the gap between the rich and poor is wider than ever. In addition, a group of conspirators amuse themselves by spreading epidemics, as a result of which the Croats mutate into flesh-eating zombies; that is with the exception of Mićo.

Whilst Zagreb is overflowing with homeless people, this bon viveur drives an expensive red convertible. Only the radio presenter's voice still purrs from the light at the end of the tunnel. On the big screen blonde heroine Hrvojka Horvat fights with shield and flaming sword against the enemies of Croatia and yet what begins as a post-capitalist social comedy soon evolves into an action-packed horror film full of science-fiction elements: from outer space a group of elite water producers infect the country with a cannibal virus. Only Mićo remains untainted by the zombie epidemic. Appearing to be immune, he attempts to escape together with Hrvojka and two other comrades and yet the borders have long been secured. Shortly before a paranoid American General manages to wipe the epidemic-hit region from the map with a newly-invented bomb, Mićo and his patriotic friends discover an unusual cure for the virus, learning in the process that their blood isn't as purely Croatian as they had always imagined.

Employing dark humour this horror-comedy takes aim at nationalist arrogance and the prejudice that exists between the various ethnic groups in the former Yugoslavia, thus ensuring its popularity amongst audiences in the region. WMH
