In this motion picture, Aleksandar Petrović revisited a similar environment in which he set his previous film, I Even Met Happy Gypsies (Skupljači perja). Inspired by Dostoevsky's novel, Demons, and a newspaper report of a crime in one Serbian village, the film is about people whose life philosophy is expressed by the central song's refrain: "The world will end soon, all will be gone... Collapse, world, collapse, no one will mourn..." The music fulfils a generally important role in the film as it made equal to dialogues. The main characters are the local pig shepherd Trisha (Ivan Palúch), the crazy Goca (Eva Ras) and the new teacher, young and beautiful Reza (Annie Girardot) who soon becomes the desire of almost all men in the village. After Reza becomes close with the pilot of a crashed aircraft, a tragedy is looming up... (IFF Bratislava)
