He's a special breed

that you can't find here.

Neither in Herzegovina nor Dalmatia.

And that's why he wants 500?

- I don't know You're into that stuff.

OK, this is what we'll do...

My dad wants a nice ass. He doesn't

even bother with the ones for Italy

I'm going to Cerna in a week.

I'll stop by on my way back. -OK.

If he's like what you say I'll pay

you 500 just to satisfy my dad.

You won't pay me, he's not mine!

I'll bring him for you

and you decide!

Go and play with them!

Come on, Luka.

What is it?

Would you like to play with them?

If they're up for it, OK. -Why

wouldn't they be up for it? Come on...

My dear ass... My sweetie...

Be nice to your grandma and

grandma will be nice to you.

My dear donkey Nobody

will hurt you, just be nice.

Be nice, little one.

Be nice to your grandma.

Be nice to you owner

and she'll be nice to you.

I'll listen to you.

Look at you...

Don't make me mad.

Come on.

That day was really peaceful.

Not even 3-4 grenades fell...

Really beautiful day

Too nice. Sunny.

Really beautiful day

Too nice. Sunny.

It landed about 100 m from us.

And out often of us

in front of the building,

that small shrapnel just

hit me straight in the spine.

F*** it, when it's in your

cards... What can you do? -Uncle?

What? -Can I take a ride

in that wheelchair?

Luka, no can do.

- Why?

Because some bad guy poured

glue on this chair and now I'm stuck.

He didn't! -He did too!

Try and pull me up.

Can you do it? Huh?

Such a nice ass.

- Yes. He really is.

Dad?! -Luka, where are

you going? Be careful!

Jasna, stop screaming...

Where's that donkey from?

- Who knows what's Ante up to.

Is he ours?

He'll be with us couple

of days and then he'll leave.

Why?

- Why?!

Because he has to.

You drink so much in Zagreb too?

Just asking.

I don't.

I have a few when

there's some... Why?

I don't understand it.

Do you want us to stop?

- It's no problem.

I'm just asking

why you drink so much.

How much? -Very much,

brother -What's much?

Here... I won't drink anymore.

By God, you will.

If you can drink with your pals from

Zagreb, you can with your brother.

You're screwing with me?

What else can I do?

OK...

Now, seriously..

You seem troubled... Nervous.

Is it because of Jasna?

- Why?

I can see that you're fighting.

OK, but it's not like...

Usual stuff. -Having fights

is usual stuff for you?

And it's not usual to get

along, huh? -No, just...

What, we'll discuss me and Jasna

now? What do you need it for?

We'll talk about it

because it interests me.

We can talk about me and Danica,

but you and Jasna are first topic.

Fair enough? -Yes. Fair enough.

- So what is it? Tell me.

What...

I don't know.

I can't stand hearing her talk.

Whenever she speaks, I feel

like she slaps me on the face.

I don't know I can't...

I can't explain it.

There's always something.

We try this way, we try

that way... That way. No way.

It's no good.

And it's like...

Nothing's to the point...

Nothing's to the point...

I don't feel like going

home anymore. I can't.

Everything's like...

- Usual stuff.

Stop screwing with me, please.

- I'm not screwing with you now.

Boro, you have to sort

somethings out with dad.

Then things with your

wife will be different.

Screwing with her that's

the easiest thing to do for you.

Did you sort things out with dad?

I did, as much as I could.

F*** it, he's our dad.

Wait, wait...

- What is it?

Look at that.

- What?

Look at the sky. It's as if you

could touch it with your hand.

Six.

No, take one out of the house.

OK...

Again!

Six again!

Not with that one!

Praise be to Jesus.

Nothing...

-Not bad! -Good. -Great!

Boro, I'd go for a drive-out.

- What? Just roll it, brother.

Look at him!

Nothing.

- Bad.

That's what happens when you don't

listen to your brother You townie.

Luka!

What are you doing here, son?

- I'm showing him something.

When did you get up?

- While you were sleeping.

Come on, go to bed, you'll play

with him whole day tomorrow.

I'd like to stay

with him some more.

You'll play with him whole day

tomorrow when you get some sleep.

I'd like to stay with him some

more, he's bored during the night.

OK, how is he bored?

- Because he's not sleeping.

He is. -Then why

isn't he lying down?

Because donkeys sleep standing up.

Look, he's watching us.

He's not sleeping now.

He doesn't need much sleep.

And you need lots to grow up.

I'll sleep less when I grow up!

- Why? -Because I can come late,

sleep a little and then go

out and keep it like that.

That's not good, my son.

- It is.

Trust your dad, it isn't.

- It is. And grandpa Pako told me

he'd teach me how to play boccie.

Who told you that? -Grandpa Pako.

He was here while you were out.

What else did he tell you?

- That you and uncle

didn't know how to play boccie

and that's why he'd teach me.

OK...

Let's go to bed.

We'll play with the donkey

whole day tomorrow. OK?

Abdic forces kept attacking

all over the Bihac frontline...

Despite their ferocity,

defence lines are not moving...

Let's visit our mother's grave.

We'll do it tomorrow.

- Why?

Because. Come on.

Luka! Let go of your aunt.

Mom!

Where did you get so dirty? Huh?

- What does it matter? Get inside.

I'm just saying...

Want some watered wine?

- Sure!

Jasna. -What? -Come and

have some wine with us.

OK, just a moment.

Were there a lot of people?

- The whole of Drinovci.

Funerals always attract

the biggest crowds.

Father Ivan held a nice eulogy

About loving your neighbors,

so that we don't regret

a thing when they're gone. And so...

Nice. Very nice.

Sit down. -Can aunt

sit somewhere? -Sure...

You just sit down. I'm fine.

What's with you?

- Nothing.

Take me to the toilet.

What's for lunch?

What the f*** is wrong with you?

Why are you acting like a jerk?

What? -What what? How long are

you going to abuse that woman?

OK, we won't talk about this...

- We will because you're impudent.

You don't get anything,

you foolish fool.

You don't...

- Get out.

Get out, I said. Go.

You want to mount him?

Come on...

Is this your donkey?

Have you given him a name?

What?

- Riki.

Never heard that one before.

Riki the ass.

Why do they call you an ass?

You're not...

Take a look at me.

Look at me.

Whenever I talk to somebody...

there's a problem or something.

Be it my wife or my brother..

And that kid...

I barely talk to him.

Don't know how.

He's mama's boy.

One day, he'll just...

And he won't even say bye to me.

Do you know...

I wanted to have a girl.

To be just like my Jasna.

And who can I explain that to now...?

Who...?

I haven't told her that.

That I'd like to have a girl.

To be just like Jasna.

A beauty

I haven't. If I did,

she would have had a girl.

For sure.

But I'm telling you.

Do you know Jasna? Huh?

That one...

When you see her tell her that.

Huh?

We're almost done.

Come on, be patient.

You're nice. Yes, you are.

You're nice. Yes.

You know I almost feel bad
