Summary
Bojan Ljubenović: If it were better, it wouldn't work
When the unfulfilled writer Ivan Bogdan finds his beloved wife with another man in the matrimonial bed, he is convinced that his life has reached rock bottom. But he forgets that he lives in a country that often resembles a double-bottomed suitcase, and that there is always another compartment underneath. His love problem soon fades into the background as a much worse one overtakes him. One bizarre moment of inattention drags Ivan into an unsuccessful bank robbery and successfully introduces him to the harsh world of Belgrade's underworld. Armed only with a hilarious sense of humor, the main character begins an exhausting fight to save everyone he loves, as well as himself. The story becomes more and more dynamic and takes incredible turns, and Ivan discovers that he is capable of actions that were unimaginable to him before.
