What a sex life he actually has, wants a fortune teller to know. 28-year-old Dejan slides back and forth in his seat, refusing to answer. "You are a sissy," says the clairvoyant. When it is Dejan's mother's turn, she is told that she is causing her son's problems. She should give her love to another man.
That fortuneteller hit the nail on the head. My Morning Laughter , the feature debut by Serbian Marko Djordjevic, is about a man who has lived under the wings of his parents for too long.
Everything in this tragicomedy intentionally looks unpolished. The film was shot in small spaces with the help of existing lighting, natural sound and a still camera, so that the characters walk out of the screen and reappear, depending on their mood. But in the meantime there is also hope for Dejan. A female colleague doesn't just give up.
