Tomorrow Morning (Sutra ujutru) was filmed at a time when it's been fashionable to portray Serbia as a land of unhappy individuals living among shabby skyscrapers. This movie happens in one of those projects, as such neighborhoods would be called in the US.
It is true that Serbia and other countries formed through the downfall of Yugoslavia suffered during the last decade of the twentieth century. It is also true that the a lot of people got disillusioned after reestablishment of democracy. But it is hard to believe that there is someone actually living as the main protagonists of this movie.
We saw a bunch of immature individuals in their thirties who ease the pain of cruel reality by drinking and substance abuse. They act as if they were unleashed teenagers yet somehow manage to sustain a lifestyle of relentless self-destructive partying.
At times it seems some scenes were reenactment of situations the authors encountered or wished they had encountered during nightclubbing on cheap alcohol. The overall result was unfortunately not very potent, although the intention has presumably been to offer some kind of bleak vision.
The main character has been numb almost the whole time. On the one hand it is clear that he is partially in shock from seeing his hometown and homeland after more than a decade of absence. On the other hand, it is difficult to understand why he regresses to the level of his old friends...
