Yugo Florida brings an emotional story about Zoran (Andrija Kuzmanović), a man accustomed to the routine of working behind the cameras in the production of a reality show, who unexpectedly embarks on a last trip with his father (Nikola Pejaković). Through a series of moving and humorous situations, the film exposes the complex relationship between father and son, intertwined with silences, generational misunderstandings and unspoken emotions.
In addition to Kuzmanović and Pejaković, the film also stars Hana Selimović, Jovana Stojiljković, Snježana Sinovčić Šiškov, as well as other prominent regional actors.
Yugo Florida is an international co-production of Serbia (Sense Production), Bulgaria (Contrast Films), France (La Belle Affaire), Croatia (Eclectica) and Montenegro (Adriatic Western), realized with the support of Creative Europe MEDIA and Eurimages funds.
