Описание: "Ivkova Slava" was featured at the recent Festival of New Serbian Film,
in Toronto. It was eagerly anticipated, as memories of "Zona Zamfirova"
are still fresh here. As with Zona, director Sotra takes us back to
times past with colour and exacting detail: the sets, the costumes, the
use of regional dialect, the feeling for a time when Serbia was
reemerging from centuries of Ottoman subjugation, and notably the
accurate portrayals of the ancient customs of the 'slava', or 'patron
saint's day feast'.
In Southern Serbia, there are long standing traditions of hospitality.
There is also a long standing tradition of going to emotional extremes,
as we see with Ivko's three best friends (four, if you count
"what's-his-name" the uninvited Shakespeare-quoting stranger). Reacting
to a perceived slight from their host, they set out to publicly
embarrass him, and majorly overstay their welcome at Ivko's saint's
day, leading to all sorts of mishaps, frustrations, and comic moments.
I can say that the actors who portrayed Kurjak, Smuk and Kalcha very
effectively got under my skin.... they brought to mind an old Serbian
proverb that says, "Both fish and guests stink after they've been
sitting around for three days" (in the original, "I gost i riba posle
tri dana smrde"). Poor Ivko just can't get a break.
An excellent cast was selected, especially for the lead roles. The
musical score was disappointing, relying on somewhat modern sounds for
both incidental music and one spotlight number, "Insomnia"
("Nesanica"). The musical heritage of that region is so intoxicatingly
rich, there was plenty to choose from that would have kept the mood
captivating and authentic.
