Clip - Klip (Στιγμιότυπο)

 This film is about a young girl, Jasna, who in her desperate efforts to forget about her dying dad, tries everything to feel better, including sex, alcohol and drugs. Living a rather meaningless life on the verge of depression, Jasna is willing to do anything to get the boy she is madly in love with (Djole). She provokes him, every way she can think of, just to get his attention and accepts being taken advantage of just to be with him for a few moments. Those moments are the only ones that give her joy and make her smile; hence she does not seem to care about anything else. Djole becomes the centre of her life, with her family seeming an obstacle, a distraction.

What Jasna will eventually find out is that under the surface, she is filled with sorrow about the forthcoming death of her father. What she has been trying so hard to ignore will come rushing back into her soul and mind; the excruciating pain of an imminent loss.

After drinking, doing drugs and having sex, she comes to realize that she actually cares about her father.  She can finally cry, without even wanting to. 

At first, her "boyfriend" sees her only as a sex toy, commanding her to do anything he pleases to. But in time, he starts having feelings about this weird girl that he does not want to admit. The couple ends up making up at a party after having a big fight.

Being vulgar and direct, this movie attempts to narrate and depict the story of confused and melancholic young people in Serbia and all around the world. Teenagers, who even at that young age, feel incomplete and miserable. Sometimes it's poverty, sometimes it's illness, sometimes it's death, it doesn't matter; depression is the result. Leading to the major question, why? Why do teenagers become depressed and feel like life's not worth living? Has life become such a burden nowadays? Do kids see something we don't?
