Editor's Note
In 1950s Yugoslavia, six-year-old Malik thinks his father is away on business. In fact, it's an open secret that Malik's dad has been sent away to the mines for fooling around with the voluptuous object of desire of a communist party official. As seen through Malik's eyes, this film magnifies the emotions of his new experiences, punctuated by trips to visit his Papa.
Plot Summary
A naive boy tells his version of why daddy couldn't stay with his family in post-WWII Yugoslavia. In reality, the child's father has gone to prison for romancing the lover of a high-ranking party member. But the boy thinks papa's away working. The difficulties and tumult experienced by this fatherless family struggling to survive on their own is a parable for and mirror of the tensions between the Soviet Union and the emerging Yugoslavian government, struggling for independence.
