The Elegy of Laurel
Elegija lovora
A university professor retreats to a Montenegrin mountain resort, where the boundaries between reality, dream, and myth begin to blur in a strange, poetic reckoning with his life. An offbeat, allegorical drama.
Why it’s here
Dušan Kasalica’s surreal debut extends contemporary Montenegrin cinema through a psychologically fractured journey across the country’s landscapes.
