Metastases
(Metastaze) (UK Premiere) + short
Genesis, Sunday 25 April, 8.30pm
82
min | Croatia | 2009 | Dir: Branko Schmidt
Four young junkies
without jobs, future or any kind of perspective, spend their time
drinking, fighting, shoplifting, stealing, fanatically cheering for
their local soccer club, and drug smuggling.
Metastases can be
described as Croatian “Generation X” or “Trainspotting”, with it’s
depiction of recent social problems in Zagreb. It explores the
‘illnesses’ that plague modern Croatia in the wake of war, and reflects
the petty hatreds, violence, prejudices and moods hanging over the
country with no cure in sight.
The film is being screened at the
Genesis cinema, details of its location can be found at:
