44 min
The People Will Gild It All — Laza Lazarević. Two men wait for an overdue steamboat on the Sava. Blagoje the coppersmith expects his son home from the war; Captain Tanasije Jeličić is waiting for his wife. For each, the boat’s arrival promises an answer to questions he can scarcely bear any longer. Conversation, silence, memories and mistaken sounds fill the hours.
