The Marathon Family
Directed by Slobodan Šijan
Produced by Centar film
A darkly comic family saga set in a small Serbian town where generations of grave diggers clash over inheritance and legacy, blending absurdist humor with the weight of tradition and mortality.
The Topalović family has been in the burial business for generations. When the 150-year-old Pantelija dies, five generations of his heirs start to fight for the inheritance.
