Turneja (Tour, 2008) is a film version of a theatre play, both written and directed by Goran Marković. It follows a group of Belgrade theatre actors who, not aware of what is awaiting them, set off for a bizarre, perilous, but ultimately very revealing ‘tour’ in the Bosnian Serb parastate of Republika Srpska in the winter of 1993-1994. Full of amazing quotables such as ‘I’m an actor, not a Serb!’, it is an entertaining and mature, if sometimes a bit stereotypical portrayal of the wartime post-Yugoslav society. Recommended.
