She meets young Belgrade actor Aleksa, falls in love with him and gets married. At first they live happily and she fully adapts to the new environment. However, unsatisfied with the stereotypical roles that he usually plays and troubled by the constant lack of money, Aleksa gradually turns to drink. Still, they manage to endure this difficult period when their son is born. Aleksa quits drinking and starts acting in a popular TV comedy series which brings him both money and new ethical dilemmas. Though the premiere of his ambitious politically engaged play turns out to be a huge success, it is immediately taken off the repertoire. Aleksa now starts to drink even more heavily and has serious fights with his wife. When he eventually causes a car crash with fatal consequences and ends up in jail Stamena returns with her son to America. The final scene finds them both in her American home – in what is to be their last encounter. Now talking in English, he can only see how her life completely changed and that his son does not even recognize him, let alone speak his language. 655 4 Fiction films 260 Yugoslavia : |bKlapa 22 Beograd ; Magna Plus Beograd ; VANS Beograd, |c1993. 041 srp |jeng 952 |00 |10 |40 |50 |70 |8FL |990368FL |bFL |d2016-11-25 |l0 |r2016-11-25 |w2016-11-25 |yDVD-ROM 952 |00 |10 |2ddc |40 |6FL_RECORD_0554_000000000000000 |70 |8FL |9145631FL |bFL |d2019-02-14 |l0 |oFL Record 0554 |pHU_OSA_00002302.mp4 |r2021-11-04 |w2019-02-14 |yDIGIFILM |zAccess Copy, MP4 format |cAudio Visual 920 01 KXM2KmY7 966 True |bHU_OSA_00002302 |cDigitally Anywhere / With Registration
