The Disobedient

The road movie takes many forms, and this romantic, playful film about growing up proves that a bicycle can also be a suitable vehicle for a life-changing journey. Lazar and Leni were best friends growing up in a village in Serbia. Years later, Lazar is living abroad, while Leni has chosen to stay on her native soil. Then Lazar returns, right as Leni’s life is at a crossroads.
It seems the perfect opportunity to take a cycling trip together through Serbia in the summer. To renew their friendship - this time as a man and a woman. But this turns out to be more complicated than their wonderfully uncomplicated youthful friendship.
In atmospheric, at times comic scenes, we follow the young duo during their adventures. They cause chaos in a fruit & veg market, crash the wedding of complete strangers and dare to be quiet together. What is the definition of their bond, now they are adults? What they don’t yet know themselves is revealed to us by an omniscient narrator.
