Emerging filmmaker Miroslav Momcilovic examines the seven deadly sins in his episodic feature directorial debut that allows each transgression its own uniquely shot and paced segment. From the chance meeting of two middle-aged pedophiles in "Lust" to the barking bodybuilder of "Anger" and the grotesque wedding-reception antics of "Gluttony," each sin is given a darkly humorous and irreverent treatment. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

If Musa can only bring himself to stomach his work at the saw mill for a little longer, he will reach retirement age and will have a nice pension. However, a strike has brought home to him just how bad the wages and working conditions are, and he doesn't return after the strike is over. Meanwhile, his son has had no job for a long time but plays soccer all the time, when he is not wooing the girl who runs the newsstand at the train station. Musa is a bad-tempered fellow who quarrels often with his son. On one of these occasions, his wife throws both of them out of the house. Later she goes mad and then dies. Eventually, the son is arrested for a rape he didn't commit, but this doesn't stop the boy and his girlfriend from getting married, they just do it in jail. The father, left alone with his grudges and grievances, seems to collapse in on himself. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi
