Synopsis

An elderly man named Zivojin Markovic, living in a remote village, prays that his grandson Cane will travel to the city, sell his cow, and return with a wife. In the city, Cane is supposed to meet his grandfather's stepbrother, but the man is already dead. Instead, he meets the man's two grandsons, two good-natured brothers who are small-time criminals and experts in demolition. Cane quickly bonds with these men and also falls in love with a schoolgirl named Jasna, whom he wants to marry as part of fulfilling his grandfather's wish. He becomes involved in Jasna's family affairs, rescuing her and her mother from prostitution and gangsters led by a man named Bajo. Eventually, the group returns to the village in time for Zivojin's wedding to his neighbor, despite the gangsters' attempts to disrupt the celebration, which culminates in a double wedding.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 16

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
