Impressions of Belgrade and Serbia and maybe photos from an in-country trip by a long-term ex-pat.

MONDAY MURALS--"Who's that singing over there?"
A mural dedicated to the film "Who's that singing over there?" (Ko to tamo peva?) that you can read about in English on this link.
The film is a dark comedy about a group of travelers in a bus to Belgrade in 1941, during the last days of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia, just before the Axis occupation.
See other murals on Monday Murals.
NOTE: I should have pointed out that this mural isn't advertising the film itself, but rather a restaurant by the same name.

SUNSET
A beautiful urban sunset over New Belgrade. The 'smoke' from the stacks on the left is actually just steam from the heating plant....

It's great to the link to the background - it's a powerful and moving image when you know the story behind it. Have a lovely Monday!

I like it that you can find murals indeed everywhere.
Singing and have a jolly good time!
i like this one!
It stands out well.
Un film qui même d'humeur "noire" m'intéresserait de voir. Il revient donc sur les écrans de Belgrade?
I bet the film is interesting. Great mural.
Interesting that a mural is painted to advertise a movie.
Gaelyn/Therese:
Actually, the mural advertising a bar/restaurant named for the movie! Every now and then this classic film is shown on TV.
The mural has a nostalgic feel to it. Is it a political act to watch and discuss the movie? Does the restaurant serve old traditional dishes? Or maybe provides music like that in the movie? See what a mural can do--raises all kinds of interesting questions. Thanks for contributing to this week's Monday Mural.
