Metastases (Metastaze) (UK Premiere) + short
Genesis, Sunday 25 April, 8.30pm

82 min | Croatia | 2009 | Dir: Branko Schmidt

Four young junkies without jobs, future or any kind of perspective, spend their time drinking, fighting, shoplifting, stealing, fanatically cheering for their local soccer club, and drug smuggling.

Metastases can be described as Croatian “Generation X” or “Trainspotting”, with it’s depiction of recent social problems in Zagreb. It explores the ‘illnesses’ that plague modern Croatia in the wake of war, and reflects the petty hatreds, violence, prejudices and moods hanging over the country with no cure in sight.

The film is being screened at the Genesis cinema, details of its location can be found at:
