A BALKAN NOIR / EN BALKAN NOIR

It has been five years since Swedish couple Nina and Oskar's seven-year-old daughter went missing on a vacation in Montenegro. The father has come to terms with the tragedy and moved on to a new life. The mother's hope of finding her daughter alive has transformed into an obsession – she wants nothing but to find and punish the monster that caused her so much pain. A new lead from a local policeman takes her back to Montenegro infused with new hope of revenge. The policeman is aware that Nina is not going to let the case rest and has come to a point where she no longer cares if the person in question is guilty or not. Somebody has to pay. 

„Kuljanin delivers what could be described as a Balkan take on Frank Miller´s neo-noir Sin City, crossed with a portrait of a broken mother fuelled by an unquenchable thirst for revenge, along with a painfully tangible desire to cause suffering, as well as a borderline sado-masochistic state of a mind and body.“
