Pale (2013)

Overview

The residents of a Serbian village, who have withdrawn into an insular identity, must live together with illegal migrants who, on a stopover in their journey to the European land of milk and honey, must remain invisible. The power of Marko Grba Singh’s film to evoke this place of paradoxes comes from how he interplays elements of Balkan “farce” with a certain elegiac melancholy.
