From another thread, about my Croatian films:
Budva na pjenu od mora is a Montenegrin series that most members learning BCMS have heard about
All three seasons are legally available on
this youtube account. It starts out as somewhat cheesy love story but gets more complex soon
(Radioclare has already watched all seasons, while JohannaNYC has also joined the club
)
More recently, I tried out the
Montevideo project to test my comprehension of something new and got sidetracked completely. It tells the story of the Yugoslavian (really Serbian) national team preparing and travelling for the first World Cup in Uruguay. There are two films, one taking place in Belgrade and one in Montevideo, and there are longer versions of each film as a series, as well as a third series that serves as a bridge and follows the team's long journey, in a time when you couldn't just hop on the plane. I'm currently watching this series, and I don't think I'll go back to Budva until I'm done. I'm enjoying the pre-WW2 atmosphere and the hot guys
(hotter than in Budva, for my taste) I'm less keen on the unavoidable femmes fatales, but at least they're pretty and they don't speak about football, taking me out of my comfort zone.
The first film is legally available on Youtube, with optional English subs.
