Forever Hold Your Peace

European Film

directed by Ivan Marinovic, Montenegro-Serbia-Czech Republic-Croatia-Slovenia 2023, 100 min.

Two days before the wedding, Dragana decides that she doesn't want to get married after all. But everything is ready: relatives are invited, gifts are bought, music is paid for and the rain is kneaded. For Les, the strict and cruel head of the groom's family, cancellation is out of the question. The wedding must take place, he will not lose face in front of the people. The groom Momo, seduced by the romantic notion of marriage and love, hopes that the bride will actually stay. Thus begins the greatest farce ever staged on the peninsula, spiced with plenty of dynamite, as tradition and custom dictate.
The film is a co-production of 5 Balkan countries and the Czech Republic (with the support of the State Cinematography Fund) and is directed by Ivan Marinović, a Montenegrin graduate of FAMU in Prague, who follows the tradition of Yugoslav cinema from the 70s and 80s.
