Tak-Tak
"Tak-Tak" is a short feature film in the genre of romantic drama in which the protagonists are young people who manage and swim through life and problems at the end of the eighties of the last century. There is no negativity in them, neither in their thoughts nor in their speech, nor in their behaviors, nor anything else that dominates today, in the 21st century, among the youth of their age. In the film there are no heavy and dark scenes, painting, murder, or anything else that would indicate evil and bad behavior. The positive atmosphere and youthful enthusiasm that prevailed in that period prevails.
The characters in the film deal with everyday life, which tells us how it was at that time, without computers, internet, social networks and mobile phones..., peace, love, music, friendship and freedom of living.
The action revolves around the eternal question that torments young people: What is it like to be in love, or rather, to think that you are unhappily in love?
Rade (23) is a nonchalant young man who spends all his energy on his own pleasures, and who falls "deathly" in love with a girl who at that moment seems far from him and unattainable. All the friends and comrades from his environment try to point out to him that it is an "impossible mission", but he does it his way. Wanting to reach his beloved, he weaves a web into which he himself later falls, without considering that someone else can cross and outsmart him.
Nina (24) is a beautiful, smart, educated and self-aware girl who leaves nothing to chance and who has her own life scenario in which she intends to lead the main game and be the one to place the last piece of the mosaic. A definite "domina", who always gets what she wants in the end. It is not susceptible to the influence of the environment and always does its own thing. And it succeeds in that.
Željo (23), Jasmina (24) and Emir (23) are Rade's friends, and Jasmina is an acquaintance of Nina, with whom Rade will "deathly" fall in love at first sight. They, like others, are constantly present here, they carefully monitor everything from a necessary distance and are always there when their presence and advice is most needed. The whole story radiates a positive atmosphere that also has romantic moments, sometimes signs of drama, but mostly grotesque drama. Laughter and tears of joy mingle. In the end, we come to a "happy end", from the beginning, an unexpected development, but still a happy and romantic ending.
