ONCE UPON A TIME THERE WAS A COUNTRY
A group of Serbian socialists prepares for the war in a surreal underground filled by parties, tragedies, love and hate.
"Underground" is a bold and chaotic Yugoslav film directed by Emir Kusturica, released in 1995. Written by Kusturica and Dušan Kovačević, this surreal epic blends dark comedy, tragedy, and political allegory to chronicle the tumultuous history of Yugoslavia from World War II through the 1990s. The story follows Marko (Miki Manojlović) and Blacky (Lazar Ristovski), two roguish Serbian socialists and arms dealers caught up in the chaos of war. After Blacky is injured, Marko hides him and a group of refugees in a sprawling underground bunker, convincing them the war rages on above—long after it ends—while profiting off their labor. Amidst this bizarre subterfuge, the bunker becomes a microcosm of exuberant parties, tangled love affairs, and simmering resentments, including a volatile triangle with the fiery Natalija (Mirjana Joković). Decades later, the truth unravels as the nation fractures. Famed for its frenetic energy, Goran Bregović’s raucous score, and Kusturica’s signature magical realism, "Underground" is a visceral rollercoaster of absurdity and heartbreak. Its sprawling narrative and vibrant visuals earned it the Palme d’Or at the 1995 Cannes Film Festival, though its satirical take on Yugoslav history sparked controversy. Released in 1995, "Underground" stands as a wild, polarizing masterpiece—both a celebration and a lament for a lost country. Its blend of humor, pathos, and surreal spectacle continues to captivate and provoke, cementing Kusturica’s place as a cinematic visionary.
