Description

A Wonderful Night in Split is part of The Global Lens Collection

Set in the dark, eerie streets of medieval Split, Croatia, during the two hours before midnight on New Year's eve, this stylish film noir spins three tales of desire, treachery and murder. While crowds gather in the ancient city square for a rock concert, the stories of a young couple plotting a rendezvous, an addict desperate for a fix, a widow and her grieving child, and three drunken American sailors (one played by American rap musician Coolio) become fatally intertwined.

CROATIA'S OFFICIAL SUBMISSION FOR BEST FOREIGN LANGUAGE FILM AT THE 2005 ACADEMY AWARDS!


What the Critics are Saying
