Monday

Just look at these!

I drudge at the butchery since dawn, but the gentleman couldn't care less.

Why would he be staying up anyway? He's got all provided by others.

Even Rockafeller wakes up early not to lose his millions.

And him!?

You know what time it is?

11:20am. Almost noon.

Starring

THE NATIONAL CLASS (Category Up to 785ccm)

Who received this call?

What call? What is he talking about?

The draft call. Who received and signed it for me?

How could I know what it is.

Not me.

You were sleeping. Mother wouldn't let me wake you up.

I guess someone needs to sign.

And don't bang that door, this is not a stable!

I'm telling you for the last time:

You will not accept any letters or draft calls on my behalf.

I won't.

Understood?

Wait, you haven't eaten. - I'm not hungry!

He lost weight.

The army will take care of all that! - Don't make me hear anymore about that.

If everybody can go, he can go too, after 27 years of goofing around.

Who's that stubborn head who always sleeps till noon?

Who's the world-famous dandy boy that makes the crowd go berserk?

He's wise, courageous, he drives, that's the way to go!

He's wise, schizo, courageous, drives like crazy!

Get moving with those clunkers already.

Douchebags will never learn to drive.

Who's the bloke in ecstatis when he's speeding over 100?

He's got lightning fast reflexes, a flock of birds follow him around

He's wise, courageous, he drives, that's the way to go!

He's wise, schizo, courageous, drives like crazy!

Howdy, cruel punks!

Have you seen Papi? - Papi, who?

That friend of mine who always sits alone here.

The shady guy?

Yeah, him. Has he been here? - No.

Tell him to wait for me. I need to see my mechanic. I'll be back in a half hour.

If we stay until then. - What are we, your couriers?

Don't pull my leg. I'll be back quickly.

And then the two of us will take you to some places.

See you.

He's wacko!

There you go, Brana. This is the proof I'm not making it up.

First you've brought a verification from the Faculty of Economy.

Then from the Faculty of Veterinary.

And then the Faculty of Political Sciences.

Then you've brought... God knows what.

The Faculty of Gymnastics.

Then your father kept coming to delay it on three occasions,

allegedly you've been prevented because of studies.

And then dad came again, saying that you don't study at all and that we should draft you.

Please don't, uncle Rade. Just give me a month. I'll be giving an exam at the Faculty of Dramatic Arts.

If you haven't done anything with veterinary, you won't make it with this drama either.

What's that? - Theater, movie and...

Come on. Studying to be an actor? Don't fool yourself. You better join the army. It's high time anyway.

Uncle Rade, it's only a month... - Don't 'uncle' me just because I'm a friend of your father's.

Make sure you're checked in at the garrison on Saturday.

Wait!

I can't go to the army.

I can't. I'm ill.

Well, as soon as you arrive, check in and they'll cure you.

But uncle Rade... - I'm not your uncle. - Ok, sorry.

I'm ill and... I want to be examined by the GP.

So, what is with you?

I'm ill, everything hurts me.

What hurts you? What kind of disease you have?

It hurts me here. Everything hurts me all around.

Why are you looking for trouble, Brana? You'll be labeled as a faker.

No, I'm so eager to join the military, but can't help it being ill.

I couldn't sleep at nights. I can't eat.

Ok.

Take this to your doctor. And come back Friday with the results.

If you don't show up, I'll send military police after you.

Then you wouldn't have time to put your pants on. You'd be taken straight to the barracks. Got it?

Ok, but please not Friday.

I've got this exam at the academy. Perhaps some days after Sunday.

WHAT exam? Are you ill or not? - I am, but... - So what do you want, then?

I want nothing. I just thought if I could...

No, you can't. Friday.

Come on, racer. Move away from the canal.

That woman will come take her car, and I haven't even touched it.

Just a second. I can't come near. Do you have the key 16?

Why do you need the key 16 for? Oh my expert! You don't know shit.

I hit my head because of you.

Go bring me the Gedore key 13, and the hex key 32.

If that woman shows up and see me doing your wreck, without even touching her vehicle...

We just have to look at the flange. I'll assemble it myself later.

Bullshit. You couldn't assemble before dark.

It's dead. - Can it handle for some more?

A day or two maybe, but it may kick the bucket behind first corner as well.

And those jerks don't sell a flange without half-axis...

Well drive a couple of days like this. Once it's dead, we'll find a solution.

Come on, �ile. If I qualify for the Top 3 on Saturday, I'd be first in overall standings.

And then "Modrica" hires me for the Optima Racing Team. That's already been settled!

Darn. That woman came to take her car.

�ilja! Look, I can't come right now. I have some things to do.

Yes, it's the car. So? Fuck! If you don't wanna...

Who's swearing? Call a taxi. I'll pick you up later.

You keep overdoing it. You make a fool out of me every single time.

Like, "just some trifles", and the next minute I'm doing your jalopy instead of the customer's car.

This is a firm, dammit! - Cast a glance at the tires.

They're slightly abrasive. No patterns.

Rotten, too. Even if I had money, those jerks don't produce 125x12.

You've got those "Tiger" 135x12. They'll do the job.

Take this crap out, come on!

Hey, what about those chicks you've promised?

They're waiting for me at "�uma". Everything is arranged, don't worry!

Are they young? - Perfect meat!

I'll bring them to the race on Saturday, and then we'll take them out.

You'll be knocked over by their looks. Bye!

Simke!

Bums!

What? Did you tell me something? - Go away.

Stop!

Hey, stop!

Comrade Cabor!

Comrade Cabor!

�ilja, I'm going through complete madness. Everything turned up all of a sudden.

I've been waiting for you here like an idiot!

What should I fucking do? I had to go to the army department.

Don't swear. People are listening. - Ok.

So what happened? - Take me home. We must talk.

Ok, but first I need to drop by at the academy to find out when I am giving the exam.

And meet Simke about the dough. Come on, hurry up!

Hey, mate... I handed my request and I'm not on the list. What's going on?

Are they all here for the entrance exam? - Why, you want more?

There are 146 applied and they take only 8.

Fuck.

Doesn't matter. I'm only here to avoid the army.

And where should I see what needs to be read, which declamations and stuff?

Why you need declamations for? It's for those morons upstairs in acting. This is direction floor.

Yeah that. I'm in acting. - You're in acting?

Why, what's wrong?

Nothing, sorry... The acting exam is on the floor up.

That's me here.

So we have to study all this, or what?

You see what it says. I don't know anything more than you.

And how about we meet tonight so I could rewrite it from you?

I ain't got a pencil or paper. - Let me finish, and then I'll borrow you.

So you write in Roman Latin? I say, your letter 'shj' looks fanciest.

What, you said something?

I'm Brana, but friends call me Floyd. I guess I look like Martin Floyd.

Who's that? - You don't know who Martin Floyd is?

F1 driver. Ring any bells? - Never heard of.

Have you watched on TV when he pranged at the Monaco Grand Prix?

I haven't seen it. - Too bad. You're missing a lot.

You think so?

Do you want this pencil or not? - Nevermind. I'll rewrite it tonight.

And what's your name? - Senka.

I came here by car, so if you're going downtown, I could give you a lift.

Ok... but I'm here with a friend of mine. Can we take him, too?

Ok. Let's go.

There is my machine. - Let's go Bata. We have a lift.

Good afternoon, professor! - Hello, Bu�uel.

These are my friends from the academy. Shall we give them a ride?

I'm Senka, and this is Bata.

Take me home.

Take me home, please.

Hey, let's have a coffee! - Fine. We're going to Usce.

Check this out.

I want to go home.

Relax �iki! Just a little coffee at Usce and then we're off. Ok? Deal?

I've only applied because of the verification. I may not even show up. Who gives a damn, anyway?

Don't swear, please. - Who swears? What did I say?

I passed those tests four times, but failed the oral exam each time.

This is my fifth.

Why they bother you so much? - Oh, well...

Is she feeling sick because of the ride?

She was my co-driver at the Sutjeska rally. What sickness were talking about?

So what a bunch of wankers, you were saying...

All would've had been great if I only hadn't mention Bu�uel.

Who?

Bu�uel, you know. Spanish director.

"Andalucian dog", "Viridiana"... - Oh I know.

So, him screwed you up?

How are you feeling, �ilja? - I'm fine. - There you see.

This is how it went: I've mentioned Bu�uel just casually,

and they stick to it, like: "Very good. Tell us something about this Bu�uel guy."

So I'm thinking over, right?

Should I be honest, or should I make something up?

And I decide: "I'll be honest!" and then I told them everything...

That he's a plagiator. A compilator.

That he directly stole ideas both from Eisenstein and Feuillade.

That he's the one to blame for the crisis of the avant-garde.

And I flunked.

No shit? Those villains.

Showed up next year as well. They recognized me, and bang!

Bu�uel!

I'm thinking over again. But I'm not a fool either!

So I repeated everything from the previous year, and of course, I flunked just the same.

Scumbags. So everything best about this Bu�uel dude.

Don't worry. It's a question for directing. They won't ask you that.

Excuse me.

What's your girlfriend studying?

She studies acting, but she's not my girlfriend.

We only learn together.

Hey, what are you doing here? - Tonight, when?

Well, well... Feel like getting kicks aside?

Why 'aside'? She's not my girlfriend. We see each other from time to time.

Get out. Some lady will suffer a stroke if she sees you here. - So what?

How about seven o'clock, "�umatovac" caffe?

We're leaving. Papi is waiting for me at "�uma".

Hurry up. You know I have to meet Simke about the dough.

57 dinars.

Hey mate, pay this bill. I'm in a hurry. Bye.

It's ok. - Many thanks!

Come on �iki. I'm late!

How are we to get downtown? To swim across, or what?

I'll take you home, as soon as I pick up the cash from Simke.

Ok I'll call a taxi, then. I wanted to speak with you in private.

Alright, �iki. Just need to pick up the money.

You can't imagine how important it is to me.

If I qualify on Saturday... - I don't care!

Comrade Cabor!

It's him! This one here.

Simke, open up!

Hold it! - Me? - Yes. You stay right there.

What's this, Simke? - Get lost, jerk!

I'll call the police... - I'm scared shitless, you know.

Come on out! Police!

Some dork. He's harrassing the whole building.

What? - Simke, I need those 300 grands urgently.

But I invested already. How could I give you?

I must find the way out. Tires are kaputt, and the race is on Saturday.

Pal, just wait for two days. You'll get double.

What's this? Is that glue?

Sure. That's the profit. Kids at my disco sniff like crazy.

Never heard of. Look, I wouldn't bother you but it's the last minute.

Ok, we'll figure something out. Come see me at the disco tomorrow night.

Ok, I'm off. Papi is waiting for me. We're juggling something about the army.

Soldiers are after you, eh?

Bye.

I'll come tomorrow.

So why don't you say 'bye' to him?

Some maniac attacked me. - What maniac?

The one over there. - What does he want?

He was yelling about some crash. I didn't understand a thing.

What's going on here?

I've got no clue. What a bunch of idiots!

You hear the flange knocking? - I don't give a damn!

Take me home, please! - Alright.

Now we're going to "�uma". We'll sit there for a while, have a chat and then I'll drive you home.

You wanted to talk, right?

Don't be such a prick, Floyd. We've been sitting here for five hours.

The guy came, had his lunch, stayed for one hour and left.

Have you got any idea how long I'm waiting here? Do you even know when have you left?

What should I do now? - He said he'll come here tomorrow noon.

And wait a second!

You've promised some crazy entertainment. - Yeah, where!?

Come here tomorrow noon. Me and Papi will take you out.

You keep lying, as soon as you open your mouth.

Me, liar? And where will I take you on Saturday? And with whom?

To the races. And you'll meet this top class fella.

Damn, it's 6pm already. Bye!

I want to sit.

What should I do, �ilja? There is no free chairs. Look for yourself!

Don't yell.

There is Slave. Shall we sit with him?

No. I wanna sit alone for once.

How!?? Should I give birth to a fucking table!? What should I do?

Don't swear.

I'll go ask Slave about the race application. Wait.

Hi there. - May I take a look at the machine?

Tuesday

Son.

Wake up.

Brana! - What!?

Some man came. He says you two had an accident. He's seen your father at the butchery, too.

He said he's gonna call the police.

Get up, son.

I know, but what do I have to do with this?

I'm not driving it. I don't even have a drivers' licence.

That's none of my business. I went to the police station and showed the number plates.

They gave me your name and address. Are you the owner?

Yes, because I raised the loan, but my son is driving that car.

Let him pay for it. What business do I have with it?

This father-son thing is not of my concern. Did your car made a damage to mine? Yes.

Hey, where are you going to?

We don't have it. There's only for 850ccm model.

Who could possibly have a flange then? - I don't know. May I help you?

I need... - Have you got a telephone here?

Which part? - That rubber one which is placed below the engine.

�ilja? My flange kicked the bucket. That thing which was knocking yesterday.

Anyway, my car is broken, it's outside standing in the middle of the street.

And I need a car like I need food. I'm into deep shit.

Yes? Come on �iki, leave the swearing now.

Can you ask your father to borrow me his automobile for the afternoon?

Please ask him. Or I'm screwed completely.

The drivers' licence and the insurance policy are down in the pockets.

This is the key for the steering wheel and the trunk, and this one is for the lock.

The small key is for the tank, but carefully - it doesn't have much fuel.

You must tank some gas immediately.

Thanks a lot. I'll give you the car back as soon as I...

Tomorrow is ok. I'm not going downtown today. - Thank you.

Oh yeah... Shifting gears is like the letter "H." The first one goes up-left, the 2nd to yourself...

I know.

Yeah, teach me how the gears go!

Excuse me? - Nothing. I said thanks, Mr Moma.

�ilja, I'll go tow my car.

What's wrong?

Are you mad because I've asked your father's car?

What is it?

I'm pregnant and I'll give a birth.

How?

Haven't you been taking pills?

I stopped three months ago.

Why? Are you nuts!?

First, don't raise your voice.

As second, doctor forbade me to.

And finally, if I do another abortion, it may happen that I never get pregnant again.

Listen, �iki, we must do some thinking about this.

I already did. - I know, but if...

How are you feeling?

So we agreed on this. I'm leaving. I'll give you a call after lunchtime.

Bye, Mrs Milica.

So which trick you think we should use?

Glomerulonefritis cronica. - Huh??

That's kidney failure. It's enough for obligation dismissal, I checked it personally.

Oh, no...

Don't you have something else?

Too late. Unless you wanna act being a nancy. You want that?

Stop pulling my leg.

Who are these dogs of yours?

I made a promise we're gonna take them out. If you want, we could nail them right now.

Are you nuts? Who knows what was the last time they took a shower.

They're real dogs. I have one car enthusiast for them.

Say, it's 'to be or not to be' for me. How we should accomplish this?

It's difficult.

First you need to drink some shit which messes up your urinary canals. It's because of the scanner.

WHAT should I drink?? - Don't ask.

I'm telling you, it's not easy at all. You've got to take a hit... - Ok, ok.

So they scan me, and then it's over. Right?

Then you're sent to take a pee. You piss into the bottle, and give your urine.

They examine the sample, and in 30 minutes you're diagnosed with this kidney failure.

And then you're done.

Wait a second. I take a piss, they diagnose... - Quiet, you moron!

That's the catch, dude.

It's not you who takes a piss, but our man - a true kidney patient.

Do I know this guy? - I doubt it.

They call him Mile Rent-a-Kidney. - No idea.

Which way now? - Straight ahead, and then left.

Just some nobody. I take him to the disco sometimes.

What can I do? I can't just force him to piss for others.

So he done it before? - Sure. He knows everything.

Pull over.

He's got some pidgeons. He's jerking with them all day long.

What?

Come down, will you? - I can't now. You climb upstairs!

Listen, you should act friendly with him. He's glad to do a favor!

But you have to be kind to him. Invite him for a hang out, to have fun together and stuff.

Where should I be hanging out with him??

Dunno... Show him your car for instance. Until we get this done.

Hello, Mile.

Come in.

You know who's this?

It's Floyd, the racing champion!

Hello.

Are you Branimir Mitrovic? - Yes I am.

I was reading in the papers about you. When you were... driving on two wheels.

Yes, in "Illustrated Politics".

Excuse me, Mile... I'm interrupting you.

Listen, Floyd needs to get rid of the military service. So if we could do the same thing like with Cvetko...

Ok, why not.

How are you feeling? Does it hurt you?

It doesn't hurt me now. I'm taking some medications.

How? - Well, I'm feeling a bit better now.

Listen, if you could just stop taking those medications for a while...

It won't be a problem, I'll do it.

Great.

Mile. - Mile...

Are you free on Saturday?

Because I'm having a race coming up, and I need a co-driver. If you're interested.

Mile is cool, I'm telling you!

Come on, we must go.

Bye. - Bye.

I know this lane better than my pockets. I used to beat noobs here any day.

So what are you gonna tell them? What have you prepared?

Nothing. Why should I prepare anything? I'll just step forward and tell...

One of those recitals? - What recitals!?

Why everything has to be by their own will? I'll walk in and say, like...

"You came here to choose five or six most talented out of 180 of us.

"By your judgement, of course.

"And we're shaking in the corridors like miserables, even though this exam was made for us in the first place.

"Then you give us 5 minutes to stutter - what else we could do - some poem.

"And quickly seal our destiny.

"You're getting paid for it, anyway. You don't care. It's not your ass at stake."

Don't mess with them! They'll kick you out.

Why not? What do they know about me, for example? Or about all of us in general?

You think they ever thought that some of us - not necessary me -

had to escape from home and rumble across friends' apartments because of this exam,

had to sleep in rented rooms, without remembering the last time he/she had something bisky for lunch?

Have you really escaped from home?

So what do you think?

Seriously. - If I look like someone who have, then the answer is yes.

If I don't look that way, then I haven't.

You're cool, Senka.

What is it, cocksucker!? Come back, I'll show you!

Have you dug the maniac?

Let's go to disco. A friend of mine is supposed to give me my money back.

Let's.

Howdy, cruel punks!

Hello! - What's up, liar?

Liar, why? And what about Saturday? Are we agreed on that?

You're lying us again. - Me? And what about that guy I promised?

What guy? - �ika, the man of your dreams!

Just a word with Simke, and I'm back.

Hey.

Go dance a bit.

Go dance!

They're all sniffing for real.

Thanks man. You've pulled me out. - Stayin'?

No. A chick is waiting for me in the car.

�ilja? - Nah. A bird from the academy.

Bye! - Watch your back. You ain't a kid anymore.

Where to?

Dunno.

Whassup? - I wanted to ask you something.

But nevermind.

Go ahead, what is it?

I remember that you need those cash for the tires. Nevermind, I'll borrow from Bata.

You need some cash? How much?

The landlady keeps bothering me to give her for two months in advance.

She'll pay in for me these days... - HOW MUCH?

300 grands. But she'll pay in for me.

What's that? Can your tires handle until Friday?

I'll give you the money back. - They have to.

Can't we go to your place?

Oh, no. I have my place full of relatives.

What about yours? Is it inconvenient because of the landlady?

Not quite. But I'm sharing the flat with a roommate.

Nevermind. Let's go to my place!

Ok.

Don't pay attention. She's sleeping like a rock.

Hey?

Why are you turning it off?

Light bothers me.

What's wrong?

I have an impression that she's watching us.

Wednesday

Ohhh, this could not fit in! It doesn't match. This is a flange with small eartips.

But they said it can be shoved up. - Did they?

Then, let the one who told you so to shove it up for you. I can't.

Hold this.

�ile, save my ass, for God's sake.

If we don't fix this shit, we will never get rid of the National class.

Move this freak from the canal, quickly! Why would I give a shit about your National class!?

Are you insane? You idiot. Move this thing!

Put that on the ground. What are you staring at!?

It can be shoved up. It can.

I'll have to remove the wheel, the drum, the branch, the half-axis,

and shove it up only then. You know how much work that is!?

Hey I'll do it myself, you just supervise.

By yourself? To make even bigger mess. Give me that flange.

Here.

Who's this guy? - A friend. I take him to watch the races.

Right, you are a great expert. You need an apprentice, too.

Some man is looking for you.

Not this pain-in-the-ass again! What is it now??

You know what, comrade Brana? This is not my duty, right,

but I think we should handle this matter in a civilized, humanistic way.

I met your father, and he refused to accept... - What?

Here. It's all written there. - What's that!? What's written!?

The traffic accident you made in New Belgrade, when you hit my �koda.

You heard that? And I get this every single day.

Excuse me. Maybe it's �koda, but it's mine.

If you want me to call a witness, I'm ok with that too.

Hi, mate!

Hi.

Preparing the exam, eh?

Say, you being into direction... Know why:

I've applied just to get a verification, but if I'm about to expose myself already,

I shouldn't look like a total dumbass, should I?

So I thought if you could help me pick something out. I've no idea what.

Do you know anything?

I know those poems we had to learn in primary school.

Like that epic, "Marriage of Milic the Flagbearer."

They all have the same beginnings, like: "Dear God, oh what a miracle!"

"It was when Milic got married..."

And he was, like, trying to find a broad across the whole country. And he couldn't find one.

Is that crap?

That's a bit historical.

What about "Barbara"?

Now that's good. - Pr�vert's? - Yeah.

I know that one.

It goes, like: "I didn't know you, you didn't know me either..."

"We were laughing together"... And... uh...

It ends, like: "It's still raining over Brest, but it's not like before."

Is that bad? - That's fine, but you should learn it properly, of course.

But when you are standing there, let this thing flows, just like in life.

Like our conversation right now, when I'm explaining this to you.

Like it's nothing. That's trendy now... - I don't give a damn really.

Say, will you meet with Senka soon?

We have agreed to watch "Battleship Potemkin" at the cinematheque this evening.

The one with Steve McQueen and that blonde?

No, man... The Russian movie by Sergey Eisenstein.

What? Has someone died?

Hi, Brana.

Sorry for coming unannounced. Understand my position.

For God's sake, if YOU have to announce!

Drop by anytime. - I will. Thank you.

I made these by myself. They're home-made. Take it. - No, please.

You shouldn't bother. - Please, take it.

Well, thank you. Bye.

Say hello to your daughter. - I will.

And to your husband too.

Ok, bye. - Carefully.

I don't like sausages.

He'll be eating what's on the table. If he doesn't fancy it, let him go to a restaurant.

Shame yourself, bum!

You social parasite!

Sit down!

Sound!

Release the sound!

Shut up, you idiot!

Who said that?

Sit down!

Senka!

Sit down!

Hi.

Why these pricks shut the sound off?

Shut up, it's a silent film.

I know. Just kidding.

I wasn't able to give you a call. I've been busy with the race advertisements.

Wait, I'm really interested in this.

Oh come on! - Enough there!

How is he editing, man!

How did you get inside?

I have the spare keys, remember.

If I'm disturbing you...

I'll be over in a minute.

Don't bother, we're just around the corner.

Why? I can give you a ride.

No need. Bye!

I didn't mean to disturb you, but you've promised you'll give back the dad's car yesterday.

But, when I saw it... I didn't want to spoil your evening.

Ok. We'll give the car back immediately.

Don't raise your voice. I hear well.

Know what?

I don't want to be a drag to you, because I feel that way for quite some time.

That you're being nervous in my presence. - I'm not nervous at all.

Yes, you are. Because you don't love me, and you feel committed.

The only possible link that binds us, is that me and my family could make a good use to some practical stuff of yours.

What do you mean by that? - It was clear to me long ago.

Well, in the meantime, while you've been chasing after bushings, hubcaps, crankshafts and sluts,

I realized that I don't love you anymore either.

That I served my 3.5 year-sentence standing in the shadow of an ordinary little car.

And that I've got enough. So neither you or me should feel any commitment to one another.

Ok. So it's over, then.

What about...

You mean, the kid?

That's my business. You've got to do nothing with it.

Nothing how, dammit?

Don't you swear in my presence ever again. Is that clear?

Take me home.

Dad said you can keep the car today, but you must give it back tomorrow at all costs.

Thursday

Some whacks occured before, but you will determine where it was hit later.

It was hit, where? - Well that's your job to say.

Show me what to look. How could I know the way damage was made?

I was only... - Please, comrade Brana. No influence on the person in charge.

I have a witness, too. - Cukon Emilija.

Hold your horses, gentlemen! This cannot be done in that fashion.

Dude, say any price so I could get rid of him. He's been stalking me for days.

I don't wanna take part in this charade. Why police didn't investigate?

What's there to investigate if nothing happened? I was just...

See? I have to cover you. Find another sucker for this.

Comrade Brana...

What, empty?

The fuel meter isn't working. - How much?

Can you tank for 1,800?

Ah no.

We don't tank less than 3 litres.

Got short on may way home. I'll return to tank some more.

I'm telling you - we don't tank less than 3 litres.

What kind of person are you?

I didn't bring cash from home.

Who's there?

Aunt Nata? It's me, Brana.

Brana, who? - Smilja's and Strahinja's son.

Smilja, who? - Your niece Smilja. Jula's daughter.

Oooh, Smilja! Why don't you say so!?

I haven't seen you since you were this small!

Mom sent me just for one favor. And then I must go immediately.

What's wrong?

Dad got sick this morning, and he was taken to hospital.

We don't have a dime at home, and something should be given to the nurse that watches over him.

Is it heart? - Yes, it's heart.

Is it dangerous? - It is.

What sort of things may befell a human being!

Wait.

Was he sick for long?

No, he doesn't even know he's sick. They didn't want to upset him with this information.

Here. Tell your mom I've got no more than 10,000. I'll get my pension on Thursday.

Thanks. This will do.

Good Lord! Brana...

Look how grown are you! Have you finished your school?

Ages ago. I'm a student now.

Bye.

Bye. Say hello to your dad!

I will!

Move this car, we're working here!

Is it ok, �ile?

It'll be ok.

Unless you want me to wash it for you, it's dirty.

No need.

You scumbag! - You're bighearted, I can tell you that!

I've done this for you now, and never again!

Well, the National class is no more. From Saturday on, it's over.

�ile, I almost forgot. Are you coming on Saturday?

What should I do if something breaks? - I do work. Some people must eat, you know.

What about those chicks?

What chicks? - Are you pulling my leg!? I've told you I provided some meat.

I'm keeping them hot for days, and you... Saturday, 11am. Deal. Bye.

Let's move on. You know I have to return the car to �ilja's dad.

Sit back and drive behind me. - Hey Floyd!

I don't know how to drive. - How...?

Man, whom I took to be my co-driver! Sit back.

Turn the key. To the right!

The gas pedal is on the right. Give it some. Enough!

This in the middle is the brake pedal, the most important car part.

Enough, dammit! The clutch is on the left.

Yeah that's the coupler. - It's not the coupler, but the clutch.

This turd next to your hand is the shifter. The 1st gear goes up-left, the 2nd down-left, the 3rd...

You don't need more! Just drive behind me and look what I do. I'm late.

Freakin' tires! I totally forgot about them.

What are you doing, Mile!?

What happened? Did you remember his number plates?

What numbers? I barely saved my head on the shoulders!

I'll come back soon, Brana. You've got some cookies on the table. Help yourself.

Thanks. I drove back Mr Moma's car.

How are you feeling? - Leave me alone!

Brana?

Mr Moma asks from you to go and see him. He has something to discuss with you.

Alright. And where is �ilja?

She's lying up there. The doctor forbade her to leave the bed.

I wasn't too much involved in your relationship so I couldn't realize that this thing got so far.

I wouldn't like to interfere or influence her decision,

but I don't wanna see this thing reaching unwanted proportions either.

My wife told me that some complications occured, but that she wants to give a birth at any price, too.

That is why I decided to offer my help. As much as I'm able to.

You can live here for a start. In this garden house.

But it needs to be decorated, and the bathroom needs to be fixed.

Until you get an apartment of your own.

I'm willing to help with finances at start, but it can last only while you're in the army.

As soon as you return, we must give our best to find you a well-paid, proper job.

My wife told me that you're driving. Right?

True. I'm driving in the National class but I'm likely to enter the higher category.

I'm in the Traffic Security Committee. Can I help you in some way?

Really? Those people from association have three Alpines which nobody uses for six months already.

They don't know whom to allocate them to.

In the association? What's the name again?

Alpine. That's a pimped... I mean tuned BMW.

Ok. I'll see about that.

Mr Moma, that would be great! I meet all the standards,

but it's impossible to talk with them, they are...

Stay for lunch, we'll talk about it.

You're driving, eh?

Just fooling around. Is this property all theirs?

You have to see it from inside.

Brana, it's lunchtime.

I would call you too, but... - Doesn't matter. I'm not hungry.

Do you lock the car?

Stay there. We're gonna meet with Papi later on about that thing tomorrow.

Alright, I'll wait.

Have you checked how I entered the corner at "Mostar" interchange?

I've been in hospital and checked everything. You can piss in their john, too.

You must act like you're feeling unpleasant... - How? - Like, you can't do it in nurse's presence.

Make something up, find a way.

Who are those idiots of yours? - We were in the same class together.

Out immediately. Get lost!

Mile, you'll walk in the urinal with me.

You must drink this first in the morning. It's disgusting, but be tough.

What's this shit, what did you give me?

When have you planned we should go? - Just bind this.

Friday

Where are you heading to?

To �ilja's parents. They invited us.

What are you doing at �ilja's home?

So now you're gonna decide where should we go to, and where not?

And now you take sausages and flowerpots as a present?

Why not? You have no idea about the quality of sausages at the markets. Cats won't eat them.

I have to bring something. I can't go empty-handed.

He's not giving me a dime.

How do I look?

What's wrong, Mile?

I can't.

How? You want some water?

I drank hectoliters this morning.

Wait a few seconds.

He can't piss.

What is this you have given me to drink? I'll die in here.

There it is!

Have you made it?

Here, dude.

Now spill it!

What happened?

Nothing. It didn't work.

What, they figured out?

I'm healthy.

Healthy, how? Have they taken the urine?

In fact, he is.

How...? - As simple as that.

They said, "He used to suffer from kidney disease, but the treatment gave improvements."

I'm healthy. In fact, you are.

Impossible!

Why didn't you tell us? Look what you did to the man.

Where is the doctor!?

Where do you think you're going!? You want us all to get busted?

Floyd, I didn't know, I swear. I wouldn't screw you over.

Listen, dude... I was able to release you whenever I wanted to. I wouldn't be ashamed of playing a fag for you.

"It now depends on your will, if I gain your contempt.

"But if my fortunes bother you, or even shake you a bit..."

Senka! Wait, Senka.

What happened? Did you make it?

If I look like someone who did, then yes... - I mean, really.

Again you and your 'really', like that's important.

So where are you going now? - Home. Where else?

Was she the one who was supposed to give us money for the tires?

What are we gonna do now?

I don't know.

They'll hold on. Who knows? If it doesn't rain.

Branimir Mitrovic!

This guy has the same name like you.

Is there any Mitrovic's here?

Let's go home, I'm not feeling well.

Hey, did you give your exam?

And what happened?

Well... I made it.

You want more?

He's got a stomach ache. - Big deal! Probably ate some junk who-knows-where.

Do you hear him sobbing? - Leave that thing now.

You want Smilja to throw another pan for you? - No, thanks.

If only Brana had told me we're expecting guests...

You'll pack up him up to bring home. I make these myself.

Are you an adult?

What do you mean? I'm 25.

I mean do you have an I.D.?

I have. - Alright.

Did Brana tell you something about his wife?

No. He's getting married?

He went yesterday to propose his bride. The wedding is on Sunday.

You mean, now in two days? - Yeah. Her father has some contacts in the municipality.

I know nothing about it.

The only problem is godfather. So I thought if you'd like to be the one.

Well I... We know each other for only three days.

It's important that you're an honest man. Young and straight.

Unlike those layabouts of his, that homo Simke

and that gangster, what's his name... Papi.

This is a big honour for me, but...

Maybe Floyd would like to have a better friend to be his godfather. We don't know each other well.

Deal! Smilja, give that schnapps.

No, please! I shouldn't. - Give us some!

No, I was strictly forbidden by the doctor. - Would you like to drink alone?

Just a little bit, ok? - No, please.

You are so pale.

Godfather...

Mile, come!

I'm coming.

What's dad keeping in his drawer?

He asked me to be a godfather.

Godfather?

To who? - To you.

He says that you're getting married and that you went yesterday to propose your bride.

I went to propose my bride!? - Yes.

And when this so-called wedding takes place?

This Sunday.

And what's today?

Friday.

Friday!

Brana! Where are you heading to sick like that!?

Hello!

What's the occasion, aunt Nata?

Well, I've heard about Strahinja, that he's being sick...

Aren't you lying in hospital?

When did you arrive?

Boy, you were truly ill.

Yes. I'm dragging it for long.

Well you'll be reborn in the army. Fresh air, early to sleep, early awakenings...

I hope so. I guess I should check myself in the unit tomorrow.

Look, Brana. You know that I'm your father's friend,

but also that my job is sacred and that I don't mix it with friendship.

I know. - I'm not getting soft with nobody in particular.

But your dad came yesterday and told me about the Sunday wedding.

I told him: "You can ask for everything, but not this kind of stuff.

"He received the invitation, and he must go." - Of course.

But after displaying a context to me, which is, let's put it - urgent,

I've called the ministry of defense and explained the situation.

I've told that your father is an honest man, and that you're an exemplary youth as well.

And they approved.

They approved, what? - For Monday.

Uncle Rade, I don't wanna mess around with the army. I'll go tomorrow!

Don't worry, everything's arranged!

Come Monday, until 12pm. We can understand that much.

I know, but... - There's no 'buts'.

Monday. Until 12pm.

Comrade Rade, here's your coffee. - Thanks, Markovic.

You are all well-aware the significance that pole position has in these types of tracks.

In case that Slave strikes the lead at start,

all of you others should pay attention to the drivers of RC "Union", disallowing them to break through sideways.

Hold it, Ragazzoni. Who conceived all this?

It's the decision of the executive board. Why didn't you attend the session?

Pay attention: only in case that Slave drops off, Bale and Floyd should attack.

But I'll repeat - only in case that Slave drops off.

You mean, I'm his substitute?

Why not? I have 2 points more than you. - So? The winner gets 15.

You don't think to drive at the front, do you?

I used to leave you a whole lap behind, so don't give me your shit.

What do you plan to win with, that hoopty?

Screw you all. Tomorrow I'll be driving on my own.

Excuse me! That's not sportsmanship.

What are you shitting here with some tactics and theories!?

Where are your guts when you need to press the pedal harder?

And what about the executive board's session? - I don't give a damn!

Leave him. He blows every meeting! - Quiet!

You keep bringing some fools here. Who's this!?

Slave, watch your language. Or we could solve this the other way.

Floyd, you're well-known as a man of speeds, a man with bollocks.

But this time, Slave has a car in better shape, and two points more.

I'll cry myself out.

Speaking of bollocks, tomorrow I'll give all of you a chance to suck them hard,

especially him.

Certain tales regarding setups and incorrectnesses keep circulating in public ever more frequently.

In these tales, it is your club's name that is highlighted quite often,

but also that of "Union" and some others. However that's not the subject now.

But it's the latest hour to remind ourselves that things like knighthood, sportsmanship and fair-play

must win tomorrow, rather than individuals or a club.

And exactly because of this very matter, comrade Lazarevic of the Traffic Security Committee

expressed a desire to attend this meeting.

Guys, I wish you plenty of success.

Now, the start numbers. One by one.

Say, what was the name of... - Alpine. - Yeah. Right.

Listen, you should drop by to see �ilja. She is not feeling all too well.

Have a chat with her. - I will.

When she heard about the wedding, she was distressed.

Go and explain her nicely.

I certainly will, Mr Moma.

Say, Vidoje.

Those Alpines of yours, in the association... When are they going to be shared?

Darn, it's raining!

Saturday

Take a care of him.

He's a scatterbrain. He may get lost.

Where's No. 6?

And don't strive like a madman. Drive slowly.

Come on, Mile.

Good luck.

And don't smash yourself.

You jinxer!

Dear audience, while Miss of the Summer league and her runner-ups ride a honorary round,

I'll let you know that the competitors in the National class category up to 785cc

are about to start this season's final race.

It features twelve young and talented racers.

By tradition, our top drivers are gonna take part in this category and this is their first master exam.

The National class always used to show and present new talents.

What am I supposed to do?

Go there and listen what Slave and Ragazzoni talk.

How we're doing, �ile? - Not optimistic, I can tell you that.

Here comes your meat.

Where?

Ugh! They're groce. As if you pulled them out from a battery.

Doctor, this is...

Jasna. - Juli�n. Nice to meet you.

Slavica. - Juli�n. Nice to meet you.

Is this the top-class dude of yours? - Why, what's wrong?

This is shocking!

Don't worry about Floyd. I'll take care of him!

Are you interested in something? What do you want?

I was going to ask... - Ask, what? - How fast it can accelerate...

Like you don't know how fast it can accelerate.

Beat it, punk! You wanna spy on me!?

Floyd, if you don't agree with our terms, we'll kick you out from the club.

I've already told you what you can do to me. Get lost!

Let the gas!

Let the gas to me, you idiot!

The starter invites drivers to take their poll positions.

Floyd, I couldn't hear anything!

Push me from behind! Can't you see it won't start!?

The best qualifying time was set by No. 7, Slavoljub Du�anovic "Slave".

Go back!

The initial start was successful and the drivers fight for better positions.

It seems that the first bad luck occured.

It was the veteran, Milorad Jaksic "Fangio".

Schneider, No. 4 takes the lead.

The second place is held by No. 21.

The third place is held by Slave Du�anovic.

The next is No. 10, Micunovic from RC "Victory". Brana Mitrovic Floyd is in the fifth place.

They're facing the "Vutex" curve.

Magnificent ride of Floyd Mitrovic,

he's in the 4th place already, as I can see from this point.

Remarkable grit of all competitors. This race decides new champion.

Exchange at the corner: Slave Du�anovic is forcing and takes the lead.

Floyd Mitrovic is 3rd already, passing Micunovic from behind.

Micunovic had likely dropped off the track and he's giving up.

Floyd stays on the track and continues the race.

Excellent tempo, but dangerous ride as well.

They have hit one another, and Slave Du�anovic, a strong contender, drops off. That's a great shame!

Risky, but glamourous ride of Floyd Mitrovic pushed him one more place up.

His road to victory is now entirely open.

Shame yourself! Move out of my garden.

Can't you see I was driven out, woman?

It's only Schneider who keeps trying to force and compensate the backlog.

I guessed it: Schneider's car is cancelling.

At this moment, Floyd Mitrovic surpassed Schneider, who was luckless.

Branimir Mitrovic Floyd, aged 27.

Came close of winning the championship title several times,

yet failed mostly due to numerous breakdowns and discipline penalties.

Now he is finally within reach of it.

The man who's sitting at the top of local Auto racing for 3 or 4 years in a row,

finally has a chance to triumph today...

What?? - TIRE!!

But he stopped, too!

I can't see from this distance, but it seems like a broken tire!

Mitrovic's tire has broken!

Schneider, whom I wrote off too soon, removed the failure.

It was probably just the junction cap that fell off, and he's back in the race again.

Drive on the hubcap. We got no time! - PUSH!!!

Schneider has a good chance to surpass him.

Drama at the finish line!

We won!

The race is declared void!

The race is declared void!

The No. 4 actually pushed him through the finish line. I cannot say anything for sure.

It seems that the starter declares the finish to be invalid!

Yes, the race is declared void!!

Sunday

Strahinja, stop drinking!

Godfather, make a toast!

I'd like to wish to Floyd and his wife a nice time together,

much happiness in life, and... Long live the newlyweds!

Long live!

Ljubina?

The doctor said that she shouldn't get tired.

This wedding was a bit hasty, ain't it?

We should look where the children will live.

Strahinja, don't force him to drink. The doctor forbade him.

No, I can. I recovered.

See? Cheers! - Cheers!

What do you drink, pal?

I don't drink. I drive.

Hey, Simke...

You have a chance with her, guaranteed.

Sorry, I forgot.

You'll have to excuse me.

I have an important report to make.

Of course, all this needs to be painted, before the new furniture arrives.

I'm amazed. I didn't know that something like this exists.

Please, Strahinja, just look at this...

You bloody fool!

Godfather, hit it hard!

Don't sleep, baby, while the music is playing

This crazy rhythm doesn't give peace to nobody

Mom is in the bed, she's sleeping for long

No one will know you've been staying with us

I'll wait for you only a second longer, honey

Then I'll go dance by myself

Then I'll go dance by myself

Because it's rock'n'roll, baby

It's rock'n'roll

ROCK'N'ROLL!!

Monday

Good morning!

Good morning. - You are not sleeping?

My train is leaving in an hour.

Oh, you're travelling today.

Do you have money for the trip?

I do.

Well... Have a nice trip,

and write when you find some time.

I will.

Mr Moma?

What happened with that thing we were talking about?

What?

With Alpines.

Alpines? No chance. They have no funds to buy them.

We'll see about that once you return. There's enough time.

How come you?

I thought it would be nice to escort you.

I couldn't find a wagon-restaurant around here.

Have some oranges. They'll make you good during the trip.

You shouldn't have to, I rarely eat those.

You'll see, they'll do you good.

You know when this train had a wagon-restaurant? Never.

Nah, it's trashy!

My head hurts me badly. I've got drunk like hell yesterday.

What's this?

The keys of the machine.

The small one is for the doors, and the big one is for the contact.

What am I to do with these?

Drive it around. Have fun.

But I have no drivers' licence.

Should I transfer it to your wife? - Ah, no.

Ok I'll give it back to you when you return.

Forget about it.

Bye!

Hey, Floyd! Have a nice trip!
