(OK) When Kusturica was already absolutely baroque, but with a spinal theme and image, rhe Malik boy wandering sonambule thrpugh the night between dramas of totalitaris over people and infidelity (we don't imprison men for fucking bur for sayin anything against Stalin)....
View all When Father Was Away on Business reviews
Tito's break-up with Stalin in 1948 marked the beginning of not only confusing, but also very dangerous years for many hard-core Yugoslav communists. A careless remark about the newspaper cartoon is enough for Mesha to join many arrested unfortunates. His family is now forced to cope with the situation and wait for his release from prison. The story is told from the perspective of Malik, his young son who believes the mother's story about father being "away on business".
