Mladici / Room-mates



2007 couple of students from Faculty of Dramatic Arts in Belgrade (Uroš Tomić, Pavle Vučković) made a pilot for television sitcom named "Mladići"(international title is "Room-mates" since the title is play of words). It's about two young men (young men is "mladići" on Serbian) who need to move out of their parents house so their grandmother (Ratko Mladić's made-up-for-tv high school sweetheart) offers them her apartment if they agree to hide war criminal Ratko Mladić (played by Aleksandar Hrnjakovic) who is running away from his International Criminal Tribunal for the Former Yugoslavia trial. Even though the episode is based on almost pure fiction and fabricated truth, neither TV station in Serbia (including B92 and Radio Television of Serbia) wanted to pick this show up, and the reason was anything from "expensive production" (which is not true) to "theme that would make viewers angry" (and that could be true at some point, but South Park does it all the time and it re-invented modern television in that kind of way).

Anti-War Song


Djordje Balasevic: Odjebi, JNA...
Dao sam ti jednu dobru godinu života...
Najbolju, možda?
Veliki Vračevi Medicine rascepe grudi kao narandžu i spuste novo srce u njih (pažljivo, zatvorenih šaka, kao da vračaju vrapčića u gnezdo), razdvoje skalpelom svetlo od tame u mutnom jezgru zenice, bajaju, pokrenu nepokretno, pa opet, ni oni ne mogu da mi vrate moju otrgnutu devetnaestu nikad vise...

Ali...
Proklet da sam...
Ja sam bar imao dvadesetu. Dvadeset prvu. I jos neke dvadesete-tridesete...
Za razliku od dečaka na cije crno uokvirene fotografije svakodnevno nailazim na predzadnjim stranicama štampe...
Oni ostadoše negde u devetnaestoj...
Zaljubljeni...
Zaigrani...
Zbunjeni...
Ne dospevši da svoje olovne vojnike razdvoje od olovnih zrna, koje su im Zli Starci tako bezbožnicki podmetnuli u džepove...
Ne, Brate Kaine, ne zovi me u polje...
Ne mami me, zalud, da prošetamo minskim poljem, moj grešni sivomaslinasti brate...
Poturi nekog drugog Dobrovoljca na branike svoje nesposobnosti...
Okači drugu metu na svoje kartonske bedeme...

Nema Mojih u ovom Ratu Naših...
Ma, znam...
"Ne može to tek tako"...
Čičak izdaje se kači na sve strane. I meni će ga vec neki mangup prilepiti na ledja, onako u prolazu, tapšući me po ramenu, tobož prijateljski...
Razmisljao sam o tome...
Koga izdati kad mi ostane da biram izmedju nas dvoje?
I, žalim...
Ali prestar sam da bih izdao sebe, jos jednom...
Zato odjebi, JNA...
Dosta je bilo...
