A Good Wife
Contest | Brussels Film Festival
Selected at the last Sundance Film Festival, A Good Wife depicts a 50-year-old woman, living a successful life with her husband and two grown children. A large house, two cars, friends, everything seems perfect in the best of worlds. But how has this Serbian family managed to come this far? When the father ‘s military past resurfaces, reality becomes less bright. Mirjana Karanovic is probably the best-known Serbian actress, and has been seen in several Kusturica films (Underground, Life is a miracle...), but this time she also shines as a screenwriter and director. For her first film, she manages very accurately to tackle the difficult past of her country while creating a very personal work.
