Black Cat, White Cat

1998
Synopsis
Small-time grifter Matko finds himself deeply in debt to local gangster Dadan. They strike a deal: Matko offers up his own son to marry Dadan’s sister Ladybird. But none of the two care much for an arranged marriage: Zare is in love with Ida, Ladybird is waiting for the man of her dreams.
Editorial
Bosnian-born filmmaker Emir Kusturica followed up his Palme d’Or-winning Underground with this anarchically colorful romp. A tale of feuding families and gangster rascals set amid the Roma communities of the Danube, Black Cat, White Cat is a high-spirited dose of Felliniesque comic maximalism.
