SYNOPSIS
Year of production: 2005 Duration: 89 min.
Spring 2001... A civil war is raging in Macedonia...
Trendafil Karanfilov is fleeing his home-town to avoid joining the local
army. Together with his wife Ruza he's hurriedly packing all sorts of goods
(including her wicked mother Zumbula) into their family car, destination
neighboring Bulgaria. But that spring of 2001 was incredibly hot... and the
old granny Zumbula perishes due to the heat! Faced with the bureaucracy in
a foreign land, with an old corpse that begins to rot, Trendafil decides
to smuggle Zumbula's body back to Macedonia, wrapped up in a carpet. And
so he has done... but the carpet was stolen on the way home! Facing the desperation,
they decide to call their brother-in-law Santino, an Italian Mafioso, to
help them find the body. And they begin the quest for the dead granny: from
antic Greece to Serbia and Montenegro, over the mountains of Bosnia to the
fields of Kosovo, all-over the nine hell circles of the Balkan criminal underworld.
