The gynaecologist, Danko Babič, comes to a new hospital department trying to evoke respect amongst his colleagues. However, the facade of a sympathetic and congenial doctor hides a human beast who doesn't stray from the lowest practices to enrich himself. The doctor gradually sinks into the gutter of the mafia, corruption, threats, illegal abortions and document falsification. The director, Branko Schmidt, transferred a painfully acute current topic onto the screen. The film's fast and modern style was rewarded with a nomination at the Moscow Film Festival’s main competition, and by six awards at the Pula festival. (Febiofest)

Hey wait a minute, I was the one who came up with the Bad Lieutenant comparison. Oh, well. Anyway, it's surprising that despite how disgusting and disillusioning the portrayal of conditions in Croatia is here, for me this is the first film from the former Yugoslavia where the characters don't call each other ethnic epithets. PS: well, actually, no – everyone there is picking on the Arab. But we were really close this time, believe me.
