Overview

In the improvised café “Radi Motka” in Dorćol, run and informally legalized by the resourceful Srboljub Dudić Srba, a diverse group of locals gathers: Žarko Zrenjanin, Vlada, Bane, Professor, Father Laza, Panja Panić, and Sloba. After a failed eviction, Sloba becomes the target of a media lynching, so the group organizes an improvised trial. This gives birth to SAČ – the Serbian Anti-Thief Squad. Encouraged by their initial success, SAČ members escalate their actions—from kidnapping Živaljević to hunting a dog poisoner—but the line between justice and lawlessness begins to blur. When they discover the poisoner is one of their own, the group falls apart and personal issues come to the surface. Forced to face the consequences of their actions, they manage to find a partial sense of peace, while “Radi Motka” survives as a symbol of their struggle and flawed attempts at justice.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A scrappy ensemble of misfits from a Belgrade café take justice into their own hands, discovering that the line between hero and vigilante is razor-thin. What starts as righteous fury curdles into something messier and sadder, leaving you thinking about who gets to define the rules and what it costs when ordinary people try.
