Ivo Trajkov's remake of the Czechoslovak film classic UCHO (1970) is both an absorbing political thriller and impassioned marital drama. The director sets the plot in Skopje of the nineties: A minister is arrested, accused of profiting from the privatisation process. Trajkov's protagonists have been corrupted by modern life and grown cynical in the process, the plot however functions just as well under the conditions of modern capitalism and the leading actors prove more than able successors to the Czechoslovak couple from 1970.
