Sweet Sorrow

Kosta Đorđević
Serbia, 2023, 97 Min

Love in the face of death. The boy Reja is in love with Ana. To win her heart, he secretly organises his grandmother's funeral. Melancholic coming-of-age in the alleys of summery Belgrade.

FSK12

Reja's grandmother has recently died. His mother Olga makes no effort to take care of the funeral. Since the father left the family, the emotional balance in the family is at rock bottom, and if there are any outbursts of emotion, then little brother Filip is the centre of attention. At first Reja also shows little interest in the funeral, but then he discovers that this very pain could be his ticket to conquering his crush Ana. And so he does everything he can to conquer her via the path of grief. Between warm summer days and rocked-out 60s buildings, Kosta Đorđević stages the touching coming-of-age portrait of a teenager whose sensitivity and shyness collide with the harshness of the environment.
