The Beautiful Blue Danube Trailers

Luxurious Danube river cruiser "Kriemhild", on a 2 day tour from Vienna to Belgrade. The ship "Kriemhild" is a floating sin city. Exhausted, unhappy, frustrated people from western Europe come here to "relax" and conduct business with alcohol, entertainment and sex. The crew of the "Kriemhild" are young people from eastern Europe who are trying to earn enough money to escape their small insignificant lives. That one night on this ship will shuffle the hands of fate of both the passengers and the crew of the ship. Prejudices, stereotypes and lack of communication between men and women, people of different religions, nationalities and social statutes will lead to absurd and, at times, dangerous situations, all colored with elements of dark humor. The night will unveil pain and tears, happiness and laughter.

A Musical Comedy Drama centered around an odd group of Ships crew (Central/East European) and Passengers (Western) with the dialogue mainly English but often German and Serbian (indeed I also viewed the film with Bulgarian embedded subtitles).Enjoyable hour and a half especially for the performance of Tim Seyfi as the Boss from nowhere (with some great lines!) and Jelena Gavrilovic (simply stunning) but that isn't to negate the rest of the cast as they all were quite superb.seem to thoroughly enjoy themselves (and I enjoyed watching them) in a light hearted way.I really enjoyed this film and look forward to seeing some more gems of Serbian cinema.
