Bullet Avoids the Fool
Kiti and Jozek, a young couple from the Prekmurje region become redundant at their place of work. Full of hope, they go to Ljubljana to seek new employment. Through an ad, they hire a modest room in Epifani and Aleks's apartment. Although Epifani is the owner, Aleks, her lover and has been a musician, leases the room without her consent. Jozek tries to get a waiting job but fails. His urban hopes start falling apart and the money they've brought with them runs dry. The situation in the apartment gets tense, too. Aleks, whose legs are broken because of old debts that go back to the infamous 'Catch the Cash' scam, instantly wastes the collected rent. Epifani is very much fed up with him, but is still making an effort to save their relationship. Aleks is desperate and helpless. One night, when stress gets the best of him, Aleks knocks on Jozek's door and desperately asks him for help. Jozek sees how he could benefit from Aleks's misfortune. A warrior nature surfaces in him from ancestral line going back to the great leader, Vilmos Tkalec, who led the north-eastern region of Slovenia into declaration of the independent Republic of Prekmurje in 1919, a state that flourished for no less than four days. Jozek prepares his helpless co-inhabitants for a face-off and when the debt-collectors appear at the door they see Jozek geared up for combat...
