A MONUMENT TO MICHAEL JACKSON
Highlights
The barber Marko has two goals: first, to win back his wife Ljubinka, who’s fed up with her monotonous life with him, and second, to keep the airport in his comatose hometown in the Serbian hinterland from being torn down. His infallible plan: to replace an old monument to fallen partisans with an upbeat statue of Michael Jackson. Through ups and downs of recognition and criticism, Marko keeps getting deeper into trouble, trouble from which only one man can save him in the end – the King of Pop himself. A MONUMENT TO MICHAEL JACKSON is a deep black comedy and an intensive milieu study – with a passion for detail and an atmospheric score.
